Biology
2 answers:
quester [9]3 years ago

Answer : The The correct option is, If there is energy lost in the collision to sound, heat, etc., the collision is inelastic.


Explanation :

  • Elastic collision : It is defined as in which there is no loss of kinetic energy in the collision.
  • Inelastic collision : It is defined as in which there is a loss of kinetic energy in the collision and this energy changed to another form of energy.

If the collision involves bouncing, it is inelastic because kinetic energy is not conserved.

If the collision involves sticking together, it is inelastic because kinetic energy is not conserved, it is changes to potential energy.

What is the difference between a moth and a butterfly?

The difference between butterflies and moths is a lot like the difference between frogs and toads. There are some rules of thumb you can follow to tell them apart, but there are also exceptions to those rules. Next, we'll look at exactly what makes a butterfly different from the moth and what clubs and feathers have to do with it.

Why is a "shell of hydration" important to life?
Vitek1552 [10]

D. It allows a variety of substances to dissolve in and around cells.

Explanation:

The shell of hydration is important to life because it allows a broad range of substances to dissolve in and around the cells.

  • The shell of hydration allow for water to dissolve a wide range of substances and disperse them uniformly in it.
  • Water serves a solvent capable of dissolving a wide range of substances because it forms a hydration shell round them.
  • This allow for materials to be in solution around the cell.
  • Diffusion and osmosis can readily now take place.
