What is the relationship between the salinity and density of ocean water?

Biology

BartSMP [9]3 years ago

Salinity and density share a positive relationship. As density increases, the amount of salts in the water—also known as salinity, increases. Various events can contribute to change in the density of seawater. Salinity can decrease from the melting of polar ice or increase from the freezing of polar ice.

Salinity is directly proportional to the density of Ocean water. In other words, As salinity increases, density of water also increases and vice-versa.

"A blood bank for a local hospital has a supply of plasma for which some have been contaminated with a virus causing hepatitis.
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The probability that the victim not getting hepatitis virus is 0.4547  

Explanation:

We have given that 7 of 48 units of blood is contaminated with virus causing hepatitis.

So probability of getting hepatitis virus is =\frac{7}{48}=0.1458

So probability of not getting hepatitis virus = 1 - 0.1458 = 0.8542

It is given that severely injured accident victim given 5 units of plasma

So probability that the victim not getting hepatitis virus = 0.8542^5=0.4547

So the probability that the victim not getting hepatitis virus is 0.4547

Identify the purpose of each of the following steps in the photosynthesis experiment.
Orlov [11]

Answer:

A. Hole-punching the leaves- The purpose of hole punching the leaves is to make discs out of the leaves which are able to fit in into the syringe used in the experiment and which are also able to float

B. Adding bicarbonate buffer- Bicarbonate buffer is added as a source of carbon to leaves undergoing photosynthesis.

C. Exposing the disc to vacuum in the syringe - the leaves are exposed to vacuum in the syringe in order to remove or displace trapped air in the leaves so that the bicarbonate buffer can enter the interior of the leaves and the disc will then sink to the bottom of the syringe.

D. Adding a plain buffer- the plain buffer serves as the control experiment as it does not provide a carbon source for the discs in the experiment.

Explanation:

The floating disc experiment is used to demonstrate the process of photosynthesis in leaves. In the experment, the following procedures are followed:

A. Hole-punching the leaves- The purpose of hole punching the leaves is to make discs out of the leaves which are able to fit in into the syringe used in the experiment and which are also able to float

B. Adding bicarbonate buffer- Bicarbonate buffer is added as a source of carbon to leaves undergoing photosynthesis.

C. Exposing the disc to vacuum in the syringe - the leaves are exposed to vacuum in the syringe in order to remove or displace trapped air in the leaves so that the bicarbonate buffer can enter the interior of the leaves and the disc will then sink to the bottom of the syringe.

D. Adding a plain buffer- the plain buffer serves as the control experiment as it does not provide a carbon source for the discs in the experiment.

In the results of the experiment, the discs in the bicarbonate buffer will float as oxygen is produced during photosynthesis. However, the discs in the control remain at the bottom of the syringe as photosynthesis do not occur in the absence of a carbon source.

Match Each Object to its description.
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Here are the perfect matches:

1) Oort cloud:. around the entire solar system

2) Main Asteroid Belt : between Mars and Jupiter

3) Kuiper belt : begins near Pluto's orbit


Explanation:

1) Oort cloud:. around the entire solar system

It is a system that coovers the whole solar system like a shell. It is comprised of Icy object which form a rough spherical shell. It is considered that Oort cloud is the main shell that gave rise to  cosmic snowballs of dust, rock and gases that cover the orbit the sun.

2)Main Asteroid Belt : between Mars and Jupiter

It is a circumstellar disc like asteroid belt that is roughly located between Jupiter and Mars. Many irregular shape asteriod bodies and small planets are found in this belt.

3) Kuiper belt : begins near Pluto's orbit

It constitutes a huge region of icy objects present behind the Neptune which is home to many dwarf planets like Eris, Pluto and some large planets like Ceres. It is also considered to be a source for the formation of cosmic snowballs of dust, rock and gases.

Hope it help!
