Answer:

These “higher level” brain areas are most likely related to three different cognitive processes inherently part of synaesthesia: the sensory processes (with the sensory areas), the attentional processes especially controlling the binding process (within the parietal lobe), and the cognitive processes.

Cellulose, chitin, and peptidoglycan are all considered as carbohydrates. Now in the molecular level of these carbohydrates, structural polysaccharides exist as sets of long, parallel strands that are linked to one another. Due to this arrangement, pulling and pushing forces are being withstand.

Cindy collects 20 insects for her biology class, all of which are spiders, dragonflies, and cicadas. (Note that a spider has 8 l

Ronch [10]

Cindy collects 4 cicadas in total.

Let,

D represent the number of dragonflies

C represent the number of cicadas

S represent the number of spiders

Since the total number of insects is 20:

Equation 1

D+C+S=20

A spider has 8 legs, a dragonfly has 6 legs, and a cicada has 6 legs. Since the total number of legs is 138:

Equation 2

6D+6C+8S=138

A spider has 0 wings, a dragonfly has 4 wings, and a cicada has 2 wings. Since the total number of wings is 36:

Equation 3

4D+2C+0S=36

Multiplying equation 1 with 6 and subtracting it from equation 2:

6D+6C+8S-6(D+C+S)=138-6(20)

2S=18

S=9

Multiplying equation 1 with 4 and subtracting it from equation 3:

4D+2C+0S-4(D+C+S)=36-4(20)

-2C-4S=-44

Substituting S with 9:

-2C-4(9)=-44

-2C=-8

C=4

Thus, Cindy collects 4 cicadas in total.

A student was setting up beakers that contained different solutions in order to conduct a laboratory investigation, but the next

alex41 [277]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

In order to test for starch and distinguish the beaker containing a mixture of startch and water, a small quantity of the solutions in each beaker should be taken and and drops of iodine added. The solution that gives off a blue/black color from the yellow/brown color of the iodine would be the starch water solution.

Generally, starch turns iodine solution to blue/black from the usual yellow/brown color of the substance.

Deciding between recycling of conventional plastics and developing biodegradable plastics is a complex issue because:___________

Julli [10]

Answer:

Conventional plastics-

"Plastics are typically organic polymers of high molecular mass, but they often contain other substances."

Composition-

"Oil-based polymers is currently used in packaging applications. These are virtually all non-biodegradable, and some are difficult to recycle or reuse due to being complex composites having varying levels of contamination.

Biodegradable plastics-

"They are largely manufactured from renewable natural resources, to produce biodegradable materials with similar functionality to that of oil-based polymers."

Explanation:

Complex Issue-

Diversity of biodegradable materials and their varying properties makes it difficult to make simple, generic assessments such as biodegradable products are all ‘good’ or petrochemical-based products are all ‘bad’.

Biodegradable packaging materials are most suitable for single-use disposable applications where the post-consumer waste can be locally composted.
