Answer:

D) adhesion

Explanation:

Adhesion is a water property that allows water molecules to adhere to each other. This can occur thanks to its polarity. Water tends to attract and be attracted to other polar molecules. This attraction between water molecules and other polar molecules is called adhesion. When the slope occurs the water surface becomes curved, as shown in the figure.

Water molecules do not bind with nonpolar molecules, ie there is no adhesion. Therefore it is not evenly distributed on a waxed surface, and forms separate droplets on them, as the wax is nonpolar.

What kind of authority does our elected government officials exercise?​
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Depending upon the country and community in which you live, the authority exercised by elected officials is defined by formal rules and informal norms of behavior that apply in that jurisdiction. Authority is the willing compliance, almost automatic, with dictates from figures to whom we grant that authority. The formal rules limiting government officials’ authority should protect citizens from abuses of that authority but informal norms may sometimes allow elected officials to get away with actions that violate those rules or, at least, bend them to their own purposes.

Which of the following is true regarding cultivation and isolation of animal viruses? View Available Hint(s) Which of the follow
Studentka2010 [4]

completed question'

.....culturing viruses that requires a human host

Answer:

Diploid cell culture lines, developed from human embryos, are widely used for culturing viruses that require a human host

Explanation

Viruses can not thrive in a non-living host or artificial media.They  are intracelular parasites  which needed living host to replicate . Cultures lines from Human embryo  in are therefore used for culturing viruses of human host, so that its mode of replication and gene expression can be studied, and therefore its virulence can easily be studied.

This method have the advantage that;

1.there is no need to make use of the whole animal rather,on a tiny tissue needed can be isolated for culture.

2. the cells growth is continuous,and can be preserved in liquid Nitrogen and renew for future culture

3. cells can be grown in different containers,  with ability to decide the number of cells needed.

Temperature is kept at optimum for human in the culture at  37 degree centigrade, nutrients are provided, NaHC03 as buffers for C02, and  the medium is humidified.

Compare the rates of cell division occurring in your neurons and your hair follicles.
Firlakuza [10]

Once you finish growing to adulthood, neurons stop dividing. Hair follicle cells constantly divide throughout your lifetime since they are constantly producing cells that become part of the hair itself as they die. So in an adult, the rate of cell division for neurons is zero (although there is some counter-evidence but it is certainly very low) while the hair follicle rate is much higher on the order of once every few days or faster.
