Option A, geographic poles are defined by Earth's rotation, is the correct answer.

The rotation of the earth is its revolution around its own shaft. The direction of Earth's rotation is eastward. The North Pole of the Earth is the spot in the Northern Hemisphere where Earth's axle of revolution joins its surface. The South Pole is another location; where the axis of Earth's circumrotation intersects its facade, in Antarctica. The geographical poles of the North and South Poles of the Earth move a few meters over a period of few years.

The poles cannot move 10 km a year because they are connected to earth which moves way more than that

Why is maintaining a circadian rhythm important?

dem82 [27]

Maintenance of the circadian rhythm is important because it helps keep the body's functions running normally.
Alteration of the circadian rhythm to a significant degree may lead to mood disorders including mild depression and seasonal affective disorder.

Abrupt shifts in routine such as shift change or travel resulting in jet lag can alter the sleep cycle and also environmental factors such as decrease in number of daylight hours. This can negatively impact the secretion of melatonin which induces us to sleep which will lead to less sleep and thus irritability and mood swings.

Mkey [24]

The most specific category and level shared by humans, gorillas, and howler monkeys (from the new world) are Suborder Anthropoidea.

<h3>What is suborder Anthropoidea?</h3>

Anthropoidea is a suborder of primates that includes humans, gorillas, and monkeys. Anthropoids are larger than prosimian primates and have flatter, more human-like faces. They also have larger brains.

Unquestionably apes, dryopithecines lived in the following Miocene. According to the conventional palaeontological theory, these Miocene apes gave rise to three new lineages in turn, one of which led to gibbons, another to big apes, and the third to humans.

However, it has long been held that the ancestors of both gibbons and orang-utans diverged from the ancestral line of the advanced Primates at an early date and that this line only later split into two groups, one of which included humans and the other of which included the gorilla and the chimpanzee; recent palaeontological evidence now tends to support this second view.

name the molecular bond present in carbohydrates that enables change in colour when using Benedict's reagent test

Helen [10]

Answer:

copper.

Explanation:

Benedict's solution is simple carbohydrates are heated, the solution changes to orange red/ brick red. this reaction is caused by the reducing property of simple carbohydrates. the copper (II) ions in the Benedict's solution are reduced to Copper (I) ions, which causes the color change.
