The easiest example here is a computer/laptop... e.g. when the CD-ROM is spinning when you are perhaps playing a movie, the kinetic energy causes friction, which results in heat. All computers need a fan to prevent them over-heating for this very reason. Therefore heat is lost and energy is wasted.
Another example is a lightbulb. When a light is switched on and left for a long time, the current flowing through the filament (the thin bit of wire in the bulb) causes heating (due to electron-ion collisions but you may not need to know that) so energy is wasted as thermal energy instead of light energy.
These are just a few examples but other ones you could use are tv screens, kettles, toasters, etc :)
Answer:
true
Explanation: your welcome. I had this question and true was the right answer
Answer: Phagocytosis
Explanation: this is one of the various ways in which the immune system fights against bacteria and other pathogenic organisms. It does this by extending its plasma membrane outwards forming a structure like a pseudopodia which it utilises to engulf the invading organism.
Explanation: The products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen.
Did you know that oxygen is actually a waste product of photosynthesis? Although the hydrogen atoms from the water molecules are used in the photosynthesis reactions, the oxygen molecules are released as oxygen gas (O2). (This is good news for organisms like humans and plants that use oxygen to carry out cellular respiration!) Oxygen passes out of the leaves through the stomata.
The light-independent reactions of photosynthesis—also known as the Calvin cycle—use enzymes in the stroma, along with the energy-carrying molecules (ATP and NADPH) from the light-dependent reactions, to break down carbon dioxide molecules (CO2) into a form that is used to build glucose.The mitochondria in the plant’s cells use cellular respiration to break glucose down into a usable form of energy (ATP), which fuels all the plant’s activities.
After the light-independent reactions, glucose is often made into larger sugars like sucrose or carbohydrates like starch or cellulose. Sugars leave the leaf through the phloem and can travel to the roots for storage or to other parts of the plant, where they’re used as energy to fuel the plant’s activities.
Answer:
electrical signals
Explanation:
As the light hits our eyes, it passes through the lens and goes to the retina where it gets converted to electrical signals. It travels to the optic nerves, then to the brain which will produce an image for you to see.
