Answer:

The energy of the input and output for nuclear fusion and fission are alike by both require an input and output. There is also difference between them as well. nuclear fission requires less of an input and a more chemical reaction in the output. On the other hand, nuclear fusion requires more of a input and output.

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are two different types of energy-releasing reactions in which energy is released from high-powered atomic bonds between the particles within the nucleus. The main difference between these two processes is that fission is the splitting of an atom into two or more smaller ones while fusion is the fusing of two or more smaller atoms into a larger one. Comparison chart Embed this chart Nuclear Fission, Nuclear Fission is the splitting of a large atom into two or more smaller ones. Fusion is the fusing of two or more lighter atoms into a larger one. Natural occurrence of the process: Fission reaction does not normally occur in nature. Fusion occurs in stars, such as the sun. Byproducts of the reaction: Fission produces many highly radioactive particles. Few radioactive particles are produced by fusion reaction, but if a fission "trigger" is used, radioactive particles will result from that. Conditions: Critical mass of the substance and high-speed neutrons are required. High density, high temperature environment is

Which of the following leaves the nucleus? (There may be only one answer or there may be

Nady [450]

Answer:

tRNA and mRNA can leave the nucleus.

Explanation:

tRNA, when mature and correct, can leave the nucleus and enter the cytoplasm. mRNA can leave the nucleus through pores in the nuclear membrane. However, DNA cannot leave the nucleus, it has to be transcribed into RNA.

How does the Richter scale measure an earthquake?

USPshnik [31]

Richter's original magnitude scale (ML) was extended to observations of earthquakes of any distance and of focal depths ranging between 0 and 700 km. Because earthquakes excite both body waves, which travel into and through the Earth, and surface waves, which are constrained to follow the natural waveguide of the Earth's uppermost layers, two magnitude scales evolved - the MB and MS scales.

The standard body-wave magnitude formula is

MB = log10(A/T) + Q(D,h) ,

where A is the amplitude of ground motion (in microns); T is the corresponding period (in seconds); and Q(D,h) is a correction factor that is a function of distance, D (degrees), between epicenter and station and focal depth, h (in kilometers), of the earthquake. The standard surface-wave formula is

MS = log10 (A/T) + 1.66 log10 (D) + 3.30 .

There are many variations of these formulas that take into account effects of specific geographic regions so that the final computed magnitude is reasonably consistent with Richter's original definition of ML. Negative magnitude values are permissible.

Which of the following is the simplest unit of a nucleic acid

Lyrx [107]

<span>Nucleotides are made of a pentode sugar, a phosphate and a nitrogen base. Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids DNA and RNA which serve as the cell's store house of genetic information. All nucleotides are composed of three parts: a five-carbon sugar, a phosphate and a nitrogen-rich structure called a nitrogenous base. The sugar can be ribose which is found in RNA, or deoxyribose which is found in DNA. The only difference between these two sugars is that deoxyribose has one fewer oxygen atom than ribose.</span>
