The ability to move or change an object or what a wave carries

Answer: The ability to move or change an object or what a wave carries is called Energy

Explanation: Waves are disturbances in physical quantities. Example of waves are light waves, sound waves, or transverse oscillations of a string. These disturbances use energy to create and propagate, for it to move the constituent particles or change the electric or magnetic fields. Therefore, power of a wave is therefore, energy transported divided by unit time caused by the oscillations of a particular wave. The derivation of a formula for the power depends on the medium -- for light waves, the power is measured by the pointing vector, whereas for oscillations on a string, the power can be computed directly by balancing forces through the application of newton law. However, for all types of waves, the formula and physical meaning of the power takes similar forms, typically depending on the square amplitude of the waves among other factors.

Nuclear _________ reactions convert protons into helium; thus, becoming the source of all energy radiated by the sun. A) fission
Bogdan [553]

Nuclear fusion reactions convert protons into helium; thus, becoming the source of all energy radiated by the sun.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nuclear fusion reaction is one among the two nuclear reactions in which the atoms nucleus interact with each other to produce the products. In nuclear fusion, two smaller atoms react together to form a new atom with bigger size.

So large amount of energy is required to start the nuclear fusion reaction. The fusion reactions mostly occurs in stars. The illumination in Stars even the Sun is due to nuclear fusion reaction occurring with the atoms present in them.

Mostly the energy radiated by Sun is due to the protons-protons chain reaction. In this chain reaction, the protons get converted into helium due to nuclear fusion reaction, thus becoming the source of all energy radiated by the Sun.

What is the function of the electron transport chain in cellular respiration. why is oxygen needed for the electron transport ch
SpyIntel [72]
1) <span>The function of the electron transport chain is to pump protons in the mitochondrion inter-membrane, thus building up a proton gradient. This gradient will allow the ATP syntheses</span><span>.</span>

2) Why we need oxygen for the electron transport chain:
 At the end of the electron transport chain is the Oxygen that will accept electrons and picks up protons to form water. If the oxygen molecule is not there the electron transport chain will stop running, and ATP will no longer be produced. Basically, we need the oxygen to produce more ATP.
