Kepler-186f is an exoplanet that orbits a star other than the Sun. Its star is the red dwarf Kepler-186. It is the first planet

to be discovered that orbits its star at a distance similar to Earth’s distance from the Sun. If Kepler-186f is approximately 5.4 x 1010 meters from Kepler-186, how long does it take for light from the star to reach the exoplanet? The speed of light is 3.0 x 108 m/s

Answer:

180seconds

Explanation:

According to the question, Kepler-186f is an exoplanet that orbits a star called kepler-186, other than the Sun.

Distance of the star (kepler-186) away from the planet is 5.4 x 10^10 meters

In order to calculate how long i.e. time, a light moving at an average speed of 3.0 x 10^8 m/s will get to the exoplanet from the star, we use;

Speed (m/s) = Distance (m) ÷ time (s)

Time = Distance/speed

Time = 5.4 x 10^10 ÷ 3.0 x 10^8

Time = 5.4/3.0 × 10^ (10-8)

Time = 1.8 × 10^2

Time = 180seconds.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is formed by ________ and reabsorbed through arachnoid granulations into ________.
Ede4ka [16]
The correct terms to fill in the blanks are lateral ventricles and venous sinus blood. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is formed by lateral ventricles and reabsorbed through arachnoid granulations into the venous sinus blood. The CSF is a fluid that is clear and colorless found in the spinal cord and in the brain, generally the central nervous system. The CSF functions as a buffer or a shock absorber for the brain. It provides basic mechanical protection for the brain. Also, it helps in the circulation of nutrients and the chemicals that are filtered and aids in the elimination of waste products.

Answer:

The correct answer is glands.

Explanation:

It is known that brain monitors movement, therefore, one can definitely correlate movement of muscles with the brain that comprises the role of sensory and motor neurons. When a stimulus is obtained by the sensory organs, it is transmitted by the sensory neuron to the brain and from their information is further conducted to the effector organs like muscles by the motor neuron. The glands are the group of cells, which takes part in the secretions when instigated by any particular hormone.
