You are in a canoe going downstream (with the current). If the current is traveling 5mi/hr, and you are rowing 12 mi/hr, what is

Simora [160]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The velocity of the canoe is 7 mi/hr.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of current, v_c=5\ mi/h

Speed of the person, v_p=12\ mi/h

We need to find the velocity of the canoe. Here, the person is going downstream with the current. So, the velocity of canoe is given by :

v=v_p-v_c\\\\v=12-5\\\\v=7\ mi/hr

So, the velocity of the canoe is 7 mi/hr. Hence, this is the required solution.

A eukaryotic cell that is involved in synthesizing large amounts of protein might be expected to have a lot of ribosomes. Ribosomes are dot like structure that are located around the rough endoplasmic reticulum. They are where proteins are made. There are also a few that are located in the cytoplasm. These ribosomes are the ones that give the endoplasmic reticulum a rough edge.

55 Which of the following is an advantage of
Savatey [412]

<u>Answer</u>:

"It increases the mutation rate"  is an advantage of  sexual reproduction

<u>Explanation</u>:

The basic thing of evolution is fundamental, as it helps in generation of genetic variation on which the selection can act. Sexual reproduction leads to genetic diversity, and this genetic diversity leads to increase the mutation rate. Genetic diversity occurs because of two various cells which are combining together and biological assortment which happens at the time of cell division. Neutral genetic diversity in the population leads to high mutation rate.

Explanation:

A  change in the cellular make up of an organisms due to response or reaction to a stimulus is called a response. This response can be due to a stimulus inside the  body , or due to effect of an external ( stimulus) object on the body-stepping on a sharp pin.

In either cases, the stimulus  is  receive by the receptors, which transfer the stimulus through the sensory neuron to the inter neuron in the CNS, for the motor neuron to bring an effective response at the effectors.
