Answer:

Option C, Speed

Explanation:

Sounds travel faster in water. Their speed in water is five times of their speed in air.  

With such high speed, sound waves instead of going through ossicles bones (in the inner ears) directly vibrate the heavy bone behind the ears. Due to this reason, a person below water hears sound waves of higher frequency.  

However, while travelling through air sound waves reaches at lower frequency

Hence, option C is correct

Answer:

The correct answer is option 1. "Amplitude".

Explanation:

Waves of sound have different properties, among them amplitude is the one that determines the loudness or volume of the sound. The amplitude is the  height of the wave, measured in meters, or in other word the maximum displacement of the sound's particle from its position of equilibrium. If a dolphin calling sounds louder because of the background noise, the waves of the sound that the dolphin produces would have a higher amplitude.

How do the basic principles of inheritance, identified by Mendel in plants, differ from those in humans?
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

The Mendelian principles of inheritance ARE APPLIED IN HUMANS. Both plants and animalls posseses two alleles (forms) of each gene, and are inherited in Mendelian ways. Some genetic diseases are Mendelian diseases and are inherited according to Mendel laws, those are the diseases caused BY A SINGLE GENE. However, there are multigenic diseases (that involves more than one gene), multifactorial diseases (which involves several genes and environmental factors), and chromosomic diseases (like 21 trisomy) and all of these does not follow the Mendel laws.

Density is mass divided by volume (d = m ÷ v). Based on the graph, what happens to a fixed mass of water when it is cooled from
Flura [38]

The mass of the water does not change. However, the volume varies with temperatures. Water at 4 degrees centigrade occupies the least amount of volume compared to other temperatures. Therefore based on the calculation of D=M/V, then water at 4 degrees centigrade has the highest density.
