Answer:

Number of bacteria required = 20000

Explanation:

Given -

Size of each bacterium = 3 micrometers long

These bacteria are arranged end to end.

The size of chain to be formed is equal to 6 centimetres

Let us say that in forming a chain of 6 centimetres nearly X number of individual bacterium are required.

hence, number of bacterium required to form 6 centimetres  chain can be represented as

X = \frac{6 * 10000}{3} \\X = 20000

Number of bacteria required = 20000

Which of the following exemplify the behavioral mechanisms for modifying heat loss via conduction and radiation?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Moving from the shade into the sun, removing a sweater, curling up in a ball all are the examples of behavioral mechanisms for modifying heat loss via conduction and radiation.

What is heat loss?

  • Heat transfer from one material to another can occur intentionally or accidentally.
  • Conduction, convection, and radiation are possible mechanisms for this.
  • When a component comes in direct touch with another component, whether it is insulated or not, conduction frequently happens.
  • Convection happens when an air barrier surrounds a pipe, electric heater, or other component.
  • When there is no touch and heat travels in waves, it is called radiation.

Here are some typical heat loss regions that designers of heating equipment should take into consideration:

  • uncovered surfaces
  • Insulated surfaces that are horizontal or vertical
  • Water is present.
  • surfaces with paraffin or oil
  • Wind speed has an impact.

Hence, all are the examples of behavioral mechanisms.

Which area of the brain may be affected when a client with anxiety disorder shows symptoms related to respiratory activation and
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:Medulla and pons.

Explanation: Brain is the part of the body that controls all body activities. Medulla and pins are part of the brain.

Medulla controls respiration. It receives signals from chemoreceptors and send to muscles that allow respiration. It also regulate heart rate and blood pressure to ensure adequate blood supply circulate the body system.

Medulla also help in adjusting respiration when there is need and also generates normal breathing movements by stimulating the nerve that supplies the diaphragm. This pons are located under the medulla and it controls speed of involuntary respiration( respiration

Not under conscious control).

When a patience shows a disorder in respiration, invountary respiration, increase in heart rate its a disorder of Medulla and pons also called Brainstems
