Alekssandra [29.7K]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  Inside a vacuum flask :

  • Screw-on stopper.
  • Outer plastic or stainless steel case.
  • Outer layer of glass coated with reflective material (or stainless steel in unbreakable flasks).
  • .Inner layer of glass (or stainless steel in unbreakable flasks).
  • One or more supports keep inner vacuum container in place.

The vacuum flask was devised to preserve liquefied gases by preventing the transfer of heat from the surroundings to the liquid. The evacuated space between the walls (which are ordinarily glass or steel) is practically a nonconductor of heat; radiation is reduced to a minimum by silvering the glass or steel.

hope it helps : )

Describe the evidence scientists discovered which demonstrate the evolution of whales from land-based mammals to water-based mam
Bumek [7]

Answer: We have found fossils that share specific bony traits that are found only in all whales but absent in every other mammal group, indicating descent from a shared common ancestor with modern whales, and these fossils had legs fully adapted for walking on land, and fundamentally identical to those of older mammals that precede the shared common ancestor that these mammals share with whales.

This tells us that the shared common ancestor of whales and these mammals with legs almost certainly had legs themselves, and inherited those legs from their own older mammal ancestors.

Therefore, whales have ancestors in their lineage that walked on land with legs.

(We also have multiple fossils of ancient whales that had legs transitional in form between fully terrestrial walking legs and flippers adapted for swimming, and modern whales still possess a remnant hip bone buried deep in their bodies.)
