Answer:

Friction allows people and objects to move. It provides traction for an object to start moving or change direction. It can also give people a better grip on objects. Finally, friction keeps objects in place when they are set down.

Answer:

Although you normally hear about trying to reduce or eliminate friction, it actually has some important uses.

Since friction is a resistance force that slows down or prevents motion, it is necessary in many applications where you might want to hold items or do things and prevent slipping or sliding. In those cases, there is an advantage of having friction.

Quite often uses of frction can be seen from how things would be without friction. Without friction, you would not be able to walk, drive a car, or hold objects. Pens and pencils would not work.

Other factors being equal, which sensory stimulus is least likely to lead to sensory adaptation?
valentina_108 [34]
The correct answer is: the wail of a loud car alarm. 
Sensory adaptation is a term that refers to the changes that stimuli can trigger on the sensory receptors. The process involves changes in the receptors' sensitivity and it is believed that all of the senses exhibit this adaptation. In particular, the sense of touch can quickly adapt to hot and cold stimulation, but not when the stimulus is extremely intense (such as too hot or too cold). Also, our olfactory sense presents the characteristic of odour fatigue. A prolonged exposure to a specific smell leads to a temporary inability to sense this smell and this is a type of sensory adaptation. Finally,
our hearing undergoes a sensory adaptation as well, but not when it comes to sudden, unexpected and instantaneous loud noises. That is why the wail of a loud car alarm will be the least likely to cause sensory adaptation.

<span>The correct answer is C. The Golgi apparatus. This is the packaging center of the cell. It is responsible for receiving cell products and transporting them within vesicles either within the cell or to surrounding cells. Lysosomes are the trash collectors of the cell, responsible for processing wiaste. The cell membrane makes up the cell's enclosure and selectively allows material into and out of the cell. The endoplasmic reticulum contains ribosomes and is responsible for assisting in protein production.</span>
