Answer:
0.153
Explanation:
We know the up-thrust on the fish, U = weight of water displaced = weight of fish + weight of air in air sacs.
So ρVg = ρ'V'g + ρ'V"g where ρ = density of water = 1 g/cm³, V = volume of water displaced, g = acceleration due to gravity, ρ'= density of fish = 1.18 g/cm³, V' = initial volume of fish, ρ"= density of air = 0.0012 g/cm³ and V" = volume of expanded air sac.
ρVg = ρ'V'g + ρ"V"g
ρV = ρ'V'g + ρ"V"
Its new body volume = volume of water displaced, V = V' + V"
ρ(V' + V") = ρ'V' + ρ"V"
ρV' + ρV" = ρ'V' + ρ"V"
ρV' - ρ"V' = ρ'V" - ρV"
(ρ - ρ")V' = (ρ' - ρ)V"
V'/V" = (ρ - ρ")/(ρ' - ρ)
= (1 g/cm³ - 0.0012 g/cm³)/(1.18 g/cm³ - 1 g/cm³)
= (0.9988 g/cm³ ÷ 0.18 g/cm³)
V'/V" = 5.55
Since V = V' + V"
V' = V - V"
(V - V")/V" = 5.55
V/V" - V"/V" = 5.55
V/V" - 1 = 5.55
V/V" = 5.55 + 1
V/V" = 6.55
V"/V = 1/6.55
V"/V = 0.153
So, the fish must inflate its air sacs to 0.153 of its expanded body volume
Answer: Maybe if you knew the def's you could answer it.
Initial Decay – Bacteria located mainly in the lower intestine begin decomposition, giving a greenish color to the lower abdomen. Stage 2: Putrefaction – Bacteria grow throughout the body, releasing gases, including cadaverine, which in turn bloat the body and cause unpleasant odor.
putrefaction
the process of decay or rotting in a body or other organic matter.
Black putrefaction occurs, which is when noxious odors are released from the body and the parts of the body undergo a black discoloration. 2 weeks: The abdomen is bloated; internal gas pressure nears maximum capacity. 3 weeks: Tissues have softened. Organs and cavities are bursting.
Fermentation occurring in putrefaction and apparently in the digestion of herbivorous mammals in which butyric acid is produced by certain chiefly anaerobic bacteria acting upon various organic substances (such as lactic acid or butter)
A dry body will not decompose efficiently. Moisture helps the growth of microorganisms that decompose the organic matter, but too much moisture could lead to anaerobic conditions slowing down the decomposition process
A pH of 2 indicates a acid.
Attached are two images concerning DNA.
The first image is a diagram that illustrates the base paring of DNA. First, there is the ribose-phosphate backbone that keeps the DNA together. Then the bases thymine and adenine are joined together by two hydrogen bonds. On the other hand, the bases guanine and cytosine are joined together by three hydrogen bonds.
The second image shows the helical structure of the DNA.
