Biology

irakobra [83]3 years ago

The correct answer is (b) Jupiter has mass less than that of sun which cannot generate enough pressure which can start hydrogen fusion. Jupiter has similar composition as both are entirely made up of hydrogen and helium. They both differ in the core and mass. The mass of Jupiter is so small as compared that it would not be able to generate enough pressure to start hydrogen fusion. Jupiter's core is made of metallic hydrogen and the core of sun is so hot that the hydrogen splits into electrons and protons. This generates hydrogen fusion.

Thus, Sun a star and Jupiter is not a star.

Which animal do not routinely undergo a 12 hour fast prior to surgery because of their inability to vomit?
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Horses

Explanation:

Between the mouth and stomach of all mammals, there is a tube called the esophagus. When the esophagus enters the stomach, it is surrounded by a muscle which allows all mammals to keep food inside, but if necessary, it relaxes to return the food as rumination (in the case of cows) or as vomit (for example in dogs, cats, humans); but on the horse that muscle is so strong that it is impossible for food to return, so they can’t vomit, and they cannot burp either.

For horses, having that muscle so developed is a great inconvenience, since vomiting is a defense system of the body that seeks to eliminate something that is not in good condition in the stomach.
