Answer:

lagoon

Explanation:

As the estuary gets more and more sediments, the deposition of them is constantly on the rise, affecting the landscape and forming new geographical features. With the sediments constantly building up, they eventually cut off part of the water from the sea. They will form a closed pool-like feature, filled with water, and surrounded by sediments, cut off from the sea. It will have shallow water, and because the water is stagnant and shallow it will have higher temperature than the other water. This geographical feature is known as lagoon.

How would a change in altitude, such as climbing to the top of Mount Timpanogos affect a person's breathing rate?
Fantom [35]

The correct answer is option B

The rate would be increased because of less atmospheric pressure . The atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure in general terms is defined as the weight of air molecules over given unit of air.

At high altitudes there are very few air molecules and thus the weight of the air is less and thus the pressure exerted is also less. Due to lesser air molecules there exists the problem of breathing.

Compare the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide across the cell membrane. (4 marks)
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Molecules naturally disperse from areas of higher concentration to lower concentration.

As oxygen-rich (and carbon dioxide-poor) blood travels by a cell the oxygen diffuses through the cell membrane to the area of lower concentration inside the cell. It can do this easily because the oxygen molecule (O2) is very small and has no charge or polarity. The oxygen is used up rapidly by mitochondria. This rapid consumption causes oxygen to constantly move into the cell from the blood.

The mitochondria creates carbon dioxide (CO2) as a waste product of cellular respiration (the process that makes energy for your body). Because the CO2 is of a higher concentration in the cell than in the blood passing by, this gas continually diffuses out of the cell. It too is small and uncharged so it can pass through cell membranes easily.

These movements require no energy (in the form of ATP) on behalf of the cell.
