Most likely in a shallow sea environment.

Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

Rock salt is commonly known as the halite whose chemical formula is NaCl and gypsums are also soft minerals, forming large colored crystals and are commonly found to be present in association with the rock salt and sulfur deposits. They are also comprised of impurities such as sylvite and sometimes potassium is also found to be present in the form of a mineral. They are formed due to the evaporation of salt water that is mainly made up of dissolved ions namely Na+ and Cl-. They are found mainly in the shallow marginal seas, bays, and estuaries and in the dry lake beds.

Thus, the most likely place for the rock salt and gypsum to occur is the shallow sea.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).

If you add 1 proton to Carbon, it will no longer be Carbon, it will be ________________.

Whitepunk [10]

Nitrogen

Explanation:

Adding one proton to a carbon atom makes Nitrogen.

A quick introspection on atoms:

An atom is made up of three fundamental particles.
They are protons, neutrons and electrons.
The protons are positively charged and the neutrons do not carry any charges.
Electrons are negatively charged.

The difference between an atom and another is the number of protons in them. This is the atomic number.

The periodic table of element is a list of elements arranged based on the number of protons they have. Every element on the table has unique number of protons which makes it differ from another.

Atoms do not readily lose their protons because they are held by nuclear forces in the nucleus of an atom.

When an element gains a proton, it becomes another element.

Carbon has proton number of 6

If a proton is added to it, it becomes 7

This is the proton or atomic number of nitrogen.

What connects the upper motor neurons to lower motor neurons?

skad [1K]

Answer:

The upper motor neurons synapse in the spinal cord connect with anterior horn cells of lower motor neurons, usually via interneurons. The anterior horn cells are the cell bodies of the lower motor neurons and are located in the grey matter of the spinal cord.

Explanation:

Interneurons are the central nodes of neural circuits, enabling communication between the upper motor neurons, sensory or motor neurons located in the brain and spinal cord and they send signals to lower motor neurons or central nervous system (CNS) in the brain stem and spinal cord . When they get a signal from the upper motor neurons, they send another signal to your muscles to make them contract. They play vital roles in reflexes, neuronal oscillations, and neurogenesis in the adult mammalian brain.

Renshaw cells are among the very first identified interneurons. They are excited by the axon collaterals of the motor neurons. In addition, Renshaw cells make inhibitory connections to several groups of motor neurons.

An 8.50 m long ladder leans against the side of a building. The ladder is initially inclined at an angle of 47.0° to the horizon

erastova [34]

The angle of the ladder inclined with respect to the horizontal after being moved a distance of 0.82 m closer to the building is 53.84°

cos θ = Adjacent side / Hypotenuse

θ $_{1}$ = 47°

Hypotenuse = Length of ladder = 8.5 m

cos 47° = Adjacent side / 8.5

Adjacent side = Initial distance of base of ladder from the building = 5.8 m

Adjacent side 2 = Final distance of base of ladder from the building

Adjacent side 2 = 5.8 - 0.82 = 4.98 m

cos θ $_{2}$ = Adjacent side 2 / Hypotenuse

cos θ $_{2}$ = 4.98 / 8.5 = 0.59

θ $_{2}$ = $cos^{-1}$ ( 0.59 )

θ $_{2}$ = 53.84°

The formula used above is one of trigonometric ratios. Trigonometric ratios can used only in a right angled triangle where one of the angles in at 90 degrees and the other two angles are less than 90 degrees.

Therefore, the angle of the ladder inclined with respect to the horizontal after being moved is 53.84°
