Biology
1 answer:
DochEvi [55]3 years ago
5 0
The halogen elements are the six elements in Group 17 of the periodic table. Group 17 is the second column from the right in the periodic table and contains six elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (As), and tennessine (Ts). Astatine and tennessine are radioactive elements with very short half-lives and thus do not occur naturally.

If you used a slingshot to launch a bowling ball and a baseball with the same force, which would go further? Explain your reason
Alex Ar [27]

Answer: The baseball will go farther because of Newton's law. The more mass an object as, the more force needed to move it. The bowling ball has more mass than a baseball so more force is needed to move it.

What is the idea of Continental Drift?
Tamiku [17]
Geologist Alfred Wegner noticed similar rocks & fossils remains were found on Continents which seemed to fit together. He called saw that it was the result of Continental drift and Pangea. Some evidence of the Drift was Rock evidence- Mountain ranges, Glacial scares, Location of coal deposits, ETC.. 

People couldn't image how the Earth could be millions of years ago. But the 1960's evidence would prove Continental Drift is TRUE and .. the story continues (as all good science!)

Continental drift means that continents move away from each other or separated.

Olenka [21]

This membrane mimics the plasma membrane that is around animal cells. In order to explore how water moves in and out of a cell, one cell was weighed and then submerged in hypertonic solution. The other egg was weighted and submerged in hypotonic solution. It was predicted that the egg submerged in hypertonic solution  would decrease in mass. It was predicted that the egg submerged in hypotonic solution would increase in mass.

Explanation:

The outermost covering of an animal cell is the plasma membrane. It is a selectively permeable membrane that allows only selective molecules to pass through it.

A solution having higher concentration of solute than the cell cytoplasm is called a hypertonic solution.

A solution having lower concentration of solute than the cell cytoplasm is called the  hypotonic solution.

The movement of water molecules from the region of its higher concentration to the region of its lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane is called osmosis.

A cell placed in hypertonic solution will undergo exosmosis so it will lose water and its mass will decrease.

A cell placed in hypotonic solution  will undergo endosmosis of water  so it will gain water and its mass will increase.

The millions of structures in the kidneys that filter toxins out of urine are called:
horsena [70]

Nephrons

Nephrons are the basic structural and functional units of the kidneys.  Each of the kidneys contains over a million nephrons. Nephrons function by filtering blood and then removing needed substances from the filtrate before eliminating the remaining fluid that contains water, metabolic waste, and toxins.as urine. This process occurs through three stages which are ultrafiltration, selective reabsorption and osmoregulation.
