The reference point = a object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion.

An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point.

You assume that the reference point is stationary, or not moving.

What are some facts about fertilization?
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Internal Fertilization: Mammals,birds and reptiles in them the mode of fertilization is internal

External Fertilization: Amphibians and fishes used external fertilization.

Egg laying Animals;Birds,reptiles and some mammals platypus lays eggs.

Explanation:

Fertilization is a process in which a female egg (Ovum) and male egg (sperm) unite to form a zygote.A zygote is a fertilized egg which grows within an embryo.The process of fertilization is important in eukaryotes such as animals, humans,birds and plants. Fertilization divides a cell into many daughter cells by the process of mitosis and meiosis.It doubles the chromosome numbers.Fertilization are of two types internal and external.

1. What might cause an increase or decrease of carbon dioxide in a given location such as in the atmosphere or buried under grou
AVprozaik [17]

1. The carbon-dioxide increases in atmosphere by fossil-fuels, decaying-dead, automobiles etc. and when animals or plant die they get buried and carbon content increases under the ground.

2. Greenhouse gas are those gases which trap heat in the atmosphere and maintain the temperature of the earth.

3. Diamond and graphite are solid forms of carbon.

4. Dry ice is the carbon as liquid.

5. Autotrophs make simple sugar glucose via photosynthesis and this sugar is used by heterotrophs as a substrate for respiration in the presence of oxygen.

Explanation:

When the fuels from automobiles, fossil-fuel, dead decaying organism release carbon in the atmosphere, the increase in carbon dioxide is the cause of global warming.

Greenhouse gases absorb the infrared radiations from the earth's surface and reradiate it back to the atmosphere. In short greenhouse gases allow sun's rays to pass through and maintain the earth's temperature otherwise the earth will become too cold to sustain lives.

What are the steps in filament theory
Inessa [10]

Answer and Explanation:

The steps of the sliding filament theory are:

Muscle activation: breakdown of energy (ATP) by myosin.

Before contraction begins, myosin is only associated with a molecule of energy (ATP), which myosin breaks down into its component molecules (ADP + P) causing myosin to change shape.

Muscle contraction: cross-bridge formation

The shape change allows myosin to bind an adjacent actin, creating a cross-bridge.

Recharging: power (pulling) stroke

The cross-bridge formation causes myosin to release ADP+P, change shape, and to pull (slide) actin closer to the center of the myosin molecule.

Relaxaction: cross-bridge detachment

The completion of the pulling stroke further changes the shape of myosin. This allows myosin and ATP to bind, which causes myosin to release actin, destroying the cross-bridge. The cycle is now ready to begin again.

The repeated cycling through these steps generates force (i.e., step 2: cross-bridge formation) and changes in muscle length (i.e., step 3: power stroke), which are necessary to muscle contraction.
