What do isobars represent on a weather map?

Biology
1 answer:
alisha [4.7K]3 years ago
8 0
Isobars represent adjusted atmospheric pressure. This removes pressure discrepancies caused by the location's relation to sea level or altitude. Isobars are also adjusted when necessary so that they never cross or touch. Weather maps with isobars give pressure information at a glance. They also give an approximation of wind direction because wind moves from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas as large air masses move through the pressure differential.

What do life functions and enzymes have in common?
igomit [66]

Answer:

Maintenance or homeostasis would be common in life-functions and enzymes.

Dafna1 [17]

The Nucleus contains most of the genetic information for making proteins

The ribosome is the place where the polypeptide strand and the mRNA meet in order to create a protein

Nucleolus has a role in the biogenesis of the ribosomes

RER -intracelular transport and protein making because of the attached ribosomes

SER-intracelular transport,lipid synthesis and it is the place where the glicogen is metabolized

Golgi Apparatus has a secretive role

Lysosomes contain 40+ hydrolytic enzimes that help with intracelular digestion

Cilia and flagella both help with the moving of the cell

Extracellular matrix keeps the cells together

The Mitochondria sythesizes ATP in a process caled oxidative phosphorylation of organic substances

Compare the physical and chemical properties of a compound to those of the elements of which it is composed.
yuradex [85]

Explanation:

Compounds are those substances that are made up of elements that are combined in a fixed proportion or ratio. The individual property of element is lost once it forms a compound. The physical and chemical properties of both compound and an element is different.

Example of a compound is water and its elements are hydrogen and oxygen. Water is a colorless liquid that acts as a solvent and dissolves most of the solutes in it. While oxygen and hydrogen occurs as gases in their elemental state.

Genetics is the most important factor that affects your physical fitness.<br> a. True<br> b. False
faltersainse [42]
<span>This is false. Everyone is unique in this aspect and although genetics can help you, or make life harder, it also falls down to personal behavior and habits. There are no genetics that can save you from constant overeating and there are no genetics that can prevent you from working out, at least to your possible extent.</span>

Which of the following was the most likely effect of the Industrial Revolution on peppered moths in cities?
jeka57 [31]
The answer is d. The population of light-colored moths decreased and the population of dark-colored moths increased.

<span>Peppered moth color variation is a good example of natural selection. During the Industrial revolution, due to pollution, trees become darker in the urban area. Light-colored moths were, thus, easy prey. The dark-colored moths were able to camouflage on dark trees and avoid predators. The phenomenon is known as industrial melanism. So, in polluted urban areas, the number of dark-colored peppered moths increased. In the clean environment, were much effective in hiding from predators and they outnumbered the dark-colored moths.</span>
