Answer:
increasing growth and decreasing rate of growth
Explanation:
Global population growth slowing due to greater longevity and lower fertility rates. The world's population is getting older and growing at a slower pace but is still expected to increase from 7.7 billion currently to 9.7 billion in 2050
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Elastic fibers are composed of elastin, myofibrils and fibrillin. They are distributed <u>separately</u>, and therefore do not form bundles(they actually form a kind of mesh), like collagen fibers.
Elastic fibers are usually thin and long and can stretch up to 1.5x of their total length.
These fibers confer elasticity to the connective tissue. The mesh formed of elastic fibers easily yields to minimal tensions, returning to its original shape as soon as the deforming forces cease.
An example of the action of elastic fibers is when we pull the skin from our hands and release it, the elastic fibers are responsible for quickly returning the skin to its original shape.
Answer: Ocean salinity increases as ocean temperature decreases.
Explanation: Scientists have believed for many years that water pressure increases as water depth increases
A radioactive element is an element which is subject to spontaneous degeneration of its nucleus followed by the emission of alpha, beta and gamma particles. All elements with atomic numbers greater than 83 are radioactive.
The given phrases that describe radioactive elements are-
They have a consistent number of particles
- the particles are alpha, beta and gamma particles.
They have a half-life that determines their rate of decay.
Explanation for other options:
Not all elements occur in nature. Radioactive decay rates may not be constant as the decay happens when a radioactive substance emits a particle. It is not possible to predict exactly when a given atom of a substance will emit a particular particle. When the radioactive element release energy and particles, it decays.
Answer:
25 nucleotide sequence pair
Explanation:
There are four nucleotide sequence pair present in DNA. and if we have 100 nucleotide so 25 nucleotide sequence pairs will be formed and each pair contains adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T).
Cytosine nucleotide paired with guanine nucleotide and Adenine nucleotide paired with thymine nucleotide . They have hydrogen bonds between each bases.
