Geologists are able to make long-term predictions about earthquakes fairly well since geological events occur in bigger time spans. This can be seen by looking at the history of earthquake occurrence in a particular area where one would observe an almost uniform time span in-between occurrences.

1. (Carnivorous) They don't rely as much on the mechanical breakdown of foods in the mouth as much as they usually eat their prey whole. They also have U-shaped stomachs.They regurgitate indigestible things (e.g. Large Bones). They have shorter, spiralling intestines, but this means it also has a large surface area.

2. One difference is that humans have lungs so that is used to oxygenate the blood while shark has gills. Another difference is that Sharks use the heat from their muscles, so rather then expelling it into the outside environment that actually use that to heat their blood and transfer the heat from warmer blood to passing colder blood.

3. I positioned my shark to be dorsal side up and have its ventral side facing down.

4. The pectoral girdle is in a location where the cartilage is very thick.

Assuming Biological substances are 90 percent water and the density of water is 1.0 x 10^3 kg/m^3, estimate teh masses (density
Anastaziya [24]
A) The answer is 5.2 · 10⁻¹⁴ kg

It is known that the mass (m) is density (D) multiplied by volume (V):
m = D · V
D = 1.0 · 10³ kg/m³
m = ?
V = ?

Let's calculate the volume.
The volume (V) of a spherical cell is V = 4/3 π r³        (r - radius of a sphere)
r = ?     
d = 1.0 um = 1.0 · 10⁻⁶ m
Since radius is a half of the diameter, then:
r = d ÷ 2 = 1.0 · 10⁻⁶ m ÷ 2 = 0.5 · 10⁻⁶ m
It is known than π = 3.14
Therefore:
V = 4/3 π r³ = 4/3 · 3.14 · (0.5 · 10⁻⁶)³ = 4/3 · 3.14 · 0.5³ · (10⁻⁶)³
                    = 4/3 · 3.14 · 0.125 · 10⁻⁶*³ = 4/3 · 3.14 · 0.125 · 10⁻¹⁸ = 0.52 · 10⁻¹⁸
                    = 5.2 · 10⁻¹⁷ m₃

So, now when we know D and V, it is easy to calculate m:
m = D · V = 1.0 · 10³ kg/m³ · 5.2 · 10⁻¹⁷ m³ = 5.2 · 10⁻¹⁷⁺³ kg = 5.2 · 10⁻¹⁴ kg


b) The answer is 12.56 · 10⁻⁶ kg
It is known that the mass (m) is density (D) multiplied by volume (V):
m = D · V
D = 1.0 · 10³ kg/m³
m = ?
V = ?

Let's calculate the volume.
The volume (V) of a fly in the shape of cylinder is V = h π r²
h = 4.0 mm = 4.0 · 10⁻³ m
r = ?     
d = 2.0 mm = 2.0 · 10⁻³ m
Since radius is a half of the diameter, then:
r = d ÷ 2 = 2.0 · 10⁻³ m ÷ 2 = 1.0 · 10⁻³ m
It is known than π = 3.14
Therefore:
V = h π r³ = 4.0 · 10⁻³ · 3.14 · (1.0 · 10⁻³ )² = 4.0 · 10⁻³ · 3.14 · 1.0² · (10⁻³ )² =
                 = 4.0 · 10⁻³ · 3.14 · 1.0 · 10⁻³*² = 4.0 · 10⁻³ · 3.14 · 1.0 · 10⁻⁶ =
                 = 12.56 · 10⁻³⁻⁶ = 12.56 · 10⁻⁹ m³

So, now when we know D and V, it is easy to calculate m:
m = D · V = 1.0 · 10³ kg/m³ · 12.56 · 10⁻⁹ m³ = 12.56 · 10⁻⁹⁺³ kg = 12.56 · 10⁻⁶ kg

Snowcat [4.5K]
The placement of the genes on the parent chromosones - B.

<span>The reason for this is that if the parents of the kittens are heterozygotic individuals (Pp and Pp). Where P being one colour and p being another colour, it's quite possible that some of their litter have the pp allele combination which in turn could make them a different colour. </span>

julia-pushkina [17]
Animals that feed primarily on arthropods and other soft-bodied invertebrates are called insectivores. These are carnivorous animals that feed on insects. such animals include lizards, frogs, and spiders.  Another alternative are the entomophages, which are humans that practice eating of insects. There are also several species of carnivorous plants, that are insectivorous.
