Which processes of the water cycle move water from the atmosphere into surface water reservoirs?

1 answer:

3 0

A water reservoir is a natural or artificial lake in which water is stored for human use. The only process that can take water from the atmosphere (vapour) to a water reservoir is precipitation.

Precipitation is the process in which small water particles collide and join, making bigger water drops that will eventually be too heavy and fall to the ground in a process otherwise known as rain (if the water is in liquid state).

Answer:

$\boxed{\bf~Precipitation.}$

Answer: Animals whose body temperature is determined in part by the environment are called “ECTOTHERMS.”

Explanation: They can have quite a high body temperature by taking advantage of external conditions, such as basking in the sun to warm up. Animals, like humans, that control their body temperature internally are called “endothermic

How is mass wasting different from other forms of erosion?

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Examples of mass wasting are slides, falls, creeps, and flows. Mass wasting processes are easily observable because they happen fast and suddenly and the changes are vividly evident in very short bit of time. However, other methods of erosion such as mechanical and physical weathering occur very slowly and it would take many years for the changes associated wth their proceses to be vivid to the naked eye.

When the body temperature becomes abnormally high, thermoregulatory homeostasis is maintained by __________?

Advocard [28]

Hypothalamus

When there is abnormally high internal temperature, sensors in the Central Nervous System send signals to the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus initiates thermoregulation by sending messages to various organs and body systems with a various mechanisms. High temperature will set off sweating and vasodilation to cool down the body.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

The minimum mass of dissolved cholesterol that the new system must be able to detect is 0.43 milligrams.

Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

GenAlex Medical, a leading manufacturer of medical laboratory equipment, is designing a new automated system that can detect borderline high levels of dissolved cholesterol (170, to 200. mg/dL), using a blood sample that is as small as 250 μL Calculate the minimum mass in milligrams of cholesterol that the new system must be able to detect Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Explanation:

Range of the equipment to detect cholesterol in blood = 170.0 to 200.0 mg/dL

Minimum amount of cholesterol that can be detected by instrument = 170 mg/dL

Volume of blood sample = 250 μL= 0.0025 dL (1 dL = 100000 μL)

Amount of dissolved cholesterol in 250 μL sample of blood =

170 mg/dL * 0.0025 dL = 0.425 mg

The minimum mass of cholesterol that the new system must be able to detect is 0.43 milligrams.
