Answer: The correct answer is Option B.

Explanation:

Convection process is one of the mode of heat transfer. In this process heat transfer takes place when there is a movement of fluid (liquid or gas).

Convection occurs in ocean currents due to the heat up of oceanic waters  making it less dense. This water travel above the cooler water and thus give off its heat to the environment surrounding it. As the water cools, it then starts  to sink, and the process continues.

Convection results due to the continual circulation of ocean water. In simpler terms, warm water rises up and cold water moves in to replace it.

Hence, the correct option is B.

Hydrogen bonds are too weak to bind atoms together to form molecules, but they do hold different parts of a single large molecul
pogonyaev

Hydrogen bonds are too weak to bind atoms together to form molecules, but they do hold different parts of a single large molecule in a specific three-dimensional shape. The given statement is true.

<h3>What are hydrogen bonds?</h3>

A hydrogen bond is an electrostatic force of attraction among a hydrogen atom tightly attached to a more electronegative "donor" atom or group and another electronegative atom bearing a lone pair of electrons, known as the hydrogen bond acceptor.

Hydrogen bonds are too flimsy to connect atoms to form molecules, but they do hold various portions of a single large molecule together in a specific three-dimensional shape.

Thus, the given statement is true.

Which of the following is the best reason to rest muscle groups between workouts?
vovangra [49]

Answer;

It allows the muscles time to heal.

Explanation;

-It is very important to rest muscles between workouts. In fact, resistance training breaks down muscles causing microscopic tears. It is only during rest when the muscle-building process is stimulated and the regeneration of new tissue occurs.

-But when muscles are not allowed adequate rest and recover time, the regeneration process cannot occur. This can have several side effects such as increased soreness, decreased strength and performance, and may lead to injury.

Explain newtons law of motion applied in this game​
kirill [66]

Newton’s first law states that if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.

Newton’s second law is a quantitative description of the changes that a force can produce on the motion of a body. It states that the time rate of change of the momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction to the force imposed on it.

Newton’s third law states that when two bodies interact, they apply forces to one another that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. The third law is also known as the law of action and reaction. This law is important in analyzing problems of static equilibrium, where all forces are balanced, but it also applies to bodies in uniform or accelerated motion.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The first law represented in the game would be the candy. If you blow it, it would move but then stop due to friction.

The second law would be represented by blowing the candy. Since the candy was light, it would be easier to blow but if it was heavier, it would be a lot harder.

The final law represented in the game would be if you decided to blow the candy with a ballon instead, the candy would move the opposite direction the ballon is moving.
