Answer:

Places with latitudes closer to the Equator have hotter climates. Places with latitudes closer to the Poles have colder climates. This happens because the Sun's rays hit them more or less directly.

The Sun powers life on Earth; it helps keep the planet warm enough for us to survive.

Cell walls are made of cellulose in ____________ cells.

pickupchik [31]

I believe the answer would be D, plant. Plant cell walls appear as tiny little boxes that are given their shape by two chemicals: cellulose and lignin. Cellulose is the basic structural component of plant cell walls and is also found in vegetable matter, cotton and wood. High amounts of cellulose are consumed by herbivores, usually with the assistance of bacteria.

An owl has good night vision because its eyes can detect a light intensity as small as 5.0 × 10-13 W/m2. What is the minimum num

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Thus, the minimum number of photons per second is 77.34

Explanation:

Light intensity, $I_{min}$ = $5\times 10^{-13} W/m^{2}$

Pupil has a diameter, d = 8.5 mm

= 8.5 x $10^{-3}$ m

Radius of the eye, r = 4.25 x $10^{-3}$ m

∴ Area of the eye, A = $\pi .r^{2}$

= $3.14\times \left ( 4.25\times 10^{-3} \right )^{2}$

= $5.6\times 10^{-5} m^{2}$

Let $P_{min}$ be the minimum number of photons.

Therefore, $P_{min}$ = $I_{min}$ x A

= $5\times 10^{-13}$ x $5.6\times 10^{-5}$

= $2.8\times 10^{-17}$ W

Thus the minimum number of photons is given by

$N_{min}=P_{min}/E$

where E = $hc/\lambda$

= $\left (6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8} \right )/548\times 10^{-9}$

= $3.62\times 10^{-19} J$

Therefore, $N_{min}$ = $\frac{2.8\times 10^{-17}}{3.62\times 10^{-19}}$

= 77.34 photons per second

Thus, the minimum number of photons per second is 77.34

Why are the processes of oxidation and reduction important to cellular respiration?

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

During aerobic respiration, oxygen is reduced, donating an electron to hydrogen to form water. The entire process of cellular respiration oxidizes glucose. This produces the majority of the energy released in cellular respiration
