B. They decrease. As more we use the sources of nature, the less is left.
Energy. A solute can only move against concentration gradients using active transport which requires energy
Answer:
D.) both a and c
Explanation:
Past observations made early in history as well as telescopes and space probes are very important in studying our universe and galaxies.
- Space probes are increasingly gaining momentum as technological and scientific advancements are being made.
- Telescopes are used to see or picture objects that are very far away in space.
- Also, understanding the past records and historical data is essential for the study of the universe.
Microscopes are not used in galactic studies. They are only used to study the world of micro-organisms.
This book describes how control of distributed systems can be advanced by an integration of control, communication, and computation. The global control objectives are met by judicious combinations of local and nonlocal observations taking advantage of various forms of communication exchanges between distributed controllers. Control architectures are considered according to increasing degrees of cooperation of local controllers: fully distributed or decentralized control, control with communication between controllers, coordination control, and multilevel control. The book covers also topics bridging computer science, communication, and control, like communication for control of networks, average consensus for distributed systems, and modeling and verification of discrete and of hybrid systems.
Examples and case studies are introduced in the first part of the text and developed throughout the book. They include:
<span>control of underwater vehicles,automated-guided vehicles on a container terminal,control of a printer as a complex machine, andcontrol of an electric power system.</span>
The book is composed of short essays each within eight pages, including suggestions and references for further research and reading.
By reading the essays collected in the book Coordination Control of Distributed Systems, graduate students and post-docs will be introduced to the research frontiers in control of decentralized and of distributed systems. Control theorists and practitioners with backgrounds in electrical, mechanical, civil and aerospace engineering will find in the book information and inspiration to transfer to their fields of interest the state-of-art in coordination control.
