Answer:

A. It will slowly lose energy to the water around and become weaker the farther it goes

Explanation:

Speed of sound in a medium

c = √(K/ρ)

K is the elastic bulk modulus and ρ is the density

For water

K = 2.2 GPa

ρ = 997 kg/m³

c = √(2.2×10⁹/997)

c = 1485.46 m/s

For material of boat (say steel)

K = 167 GPa

ρ = 8050 kg/m³

c = √(167×10⁹/8050)

c = 4554.71 m/s

Here it can be seen the speed in solid is faster than in water so sound will lose energy when it passes through water.

Answer:

Endosteum plays an important role in bone repair, bone remodelling and appositional bone growth.

Explanation:

Endosteum consists of a soft and thin connective tissue that lines the cavity of femur and humerus. Some of the major functions of endosteum are as follows:

Bone remodelling: Endosteum can stimulate the bone resorption that leads to the formation of new bone from the outside.

Bone repair: Hematoma, at the time of bone injury causes the division of endosteal cells and helps in bone repair.

Appositional bone growth: Endosteum that line the osteoblast cell can secrete bone matrix and increases the bone diameter.

Based on the information in the chart, what can we conclude about the functionality of various sized beaks.
denis23 [38]

The correct answer is - B. Beak size determines what the bird can eat.

The beak of a bird can come in many different shapes and sizes. It can be pointy, long, short, rounded, scythe-like, thin, thick... All of those shapes and sizes have a specific role, and that role is to enable the bird to feed itself with certain type of food source. Every food source requires certain type of beak in order for the bird to be efficient in getting its nutrition, so depending on hat the bird eats, we can easily see a pattern in the beaks, where birds that eat nuts have one strong and shorter beak, the ones that eat warms and insects have thin, pointy one, the predator birds have claw like, sharp beak...

What is the effect of soil salinization on crops?
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Salinity affects production in crops, pastures and trees by interfering with nitrogen uptake, reducing growth and stopping plant reproduction. Some ions (particularly chloride) are toxic to plants and as the concentration of these ions increases, the plant is poisoned and dies.
