Hey there!
El Nino typically involves waters with a warmer than usual surface temperature, a flatter thermocline (cooler water moves to the surface), and weaker trade winds. As for La Nina, think of it as the opposite of El Nino. There will be stronger trade winds, and cooler surface water temperatures.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Niche
Explanation:
Niche basically is the lifelihood of a species that involves feeding on what, drinking from what....
If both species are competing for the same resources, they would compete until a certain species is eradicated. (think of it as 2 species of ants in 2 colonies that are close to each other, take the same leaves, prey and stuff. They would fight with each other in other until one colony is eradicated.) hence, unless a species and adapt and change its niche, both species would fight until one is eliminated. Thus, the principle states that 2 species cannot continue to occupy the same niche, not living environment.
Answer:
Observers ahead of the wave observe an apparent increase in wave frequency
Explanation:
This is the Doppler Effect. The frequency of a wave increases when the source approaches the observer and decreases as the source recedes.
B, C, and D are wrong. Observers behind the source notice a decrease in frequency.
Answer:
B. Hardness
Explanation:
Physical properties of a substance is defined as the properties which can be observed or measured without changing the composition of matter.
Physical properties include odor, appearance, color, texture, boiling point, melting point and many others.
Hardness is a physical property of a substance as it describes the resistance of substance to deformation and can be observed by simple touch or without changing the composition of matter.
While reactivity, toxicity and flammability are chemical properties of substances that change one type of matter into another type.
Hence, the correct option is B.
Answer: Substances that are protein based cannot cross the lipid cell membrane, but can exert their effect by binding to the proteins based receptors present on the lipid bilayer.
Explanation:
Hormones such as calcitonin , Parathyroid hormone and pituatry horomones are proteins and water soluble.They cannot cross lipid bilayer but can bind to ligand binding protein receptors.
These receptors are protein macromolecules that are specific in nature for specific hormones.
After binding to the receptors, these hormone-recpetor complexes activate second messengers and regulate the downstream effects.
