The sand would feel warmer as the water has a higher heat capacity-the amount of heat energy required to increase temperature-. This allows large bodies of water such as oceans and lakes to absorb large amounts of heat with only small changes in temperature.

Animals lose heat through the surface areas of their skin. A small animal, such as a mouse, uses a much larger proportion of its
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Because of the difference in surface area to volume ratio

Explanation:

Surface are to volume ratio is the area of an object that is exposed to the external environment (surface area), compared to the amount within an object (volume).

Therefore an elephant has a lower surface area to volume ratio than a mouse.

The smaller an object is the greater its surface area to volume ratio.

Small animals have much more surface area per mass than large animals. With so much surface area, they lose heat very quickly. So, a mouse, with a lot of surface area per mass, must spend a lot more energy to stay warm than a large animal.

What could be the consequence of a mutation that changes the sequence of nucleotides in a promoter?
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The changes in the sequence of nucleotides present within a promoter is a prime cause of the defected transcriptional regulation, which may eventually result in disease. However, not every modification within the sequence of a promoter influences the regulation of transcription, it relies upon the nature and the location of the genetic defect.  

When a mutation results within the sequence of a promoter region it may hamper the usual procedures of gene stimulation by affecting the step by step alignment of the transcription factors at the promoter region. Therefore, as a consequence, a mutation within the sequence of a promoter may result in the enhancement or reduction in the level of mRNA and thus protein.

Lilit [14]

George is lifting weights. He starts by doing biceps curls which involves flexing his elbows.  His elbow is able to bend because the humero-ulnar joint is a hinge joint.  Sam is doing leg presses, extending his knees as he pushes against the weights. Meanwhile, Jane is doing "lat pulls" by pulling downward on a weighted bar. This movement involves adduction of her arms.  Her shoulder joint is a  ball-and-socket joint, allowing a wide range of movements.
