Answer:

The correct answer is B.cell membrane

Explanation:

The fluid mosaic model describes the mosaic nature of the cell membrane. Fluid mosaic modal signifies that the plasma membrane is made up of lipid bilayer which is not fully rigid and gives fluidity to its membrane.

Due to this fluidity, components of the plasma membrane, like various plasma membrane proteins move freely in the membranes. This elasticity of the plasma membrane allows some proteins to do flip-flop movement.

These movements of plasma membrane components play important role in the cell signaling and transport of molecules across the cell. Therefore the correct answer is B.cell membrane.

When classifying the intensity of resistance exercise during assessment, repetitions fewer than ____________ primarily measure l

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

5;15

Explanation:

Local muscular strength and local muscular endurance are two important qualities of muscle functioning. The maximum weight a muscle can lift is indicated by Local muscular strength while the number of repetitions of particular task a muscle can perform without being exhausted is indicated by local muscular endurance. These both tasks are frequently used in our daily life

For example if you can pull 50 kg weight that would be your local muscle strength and if u can pull it 20 times that would be your local muscle endurance.

While performing the the intensity of resistance exercise during assessment if you pull the 50 kg weight less than 5 times it would be considered as local muscular strength and if you pull it greater than 15 times it would be considered as local muscular endurance.

About 71% of the Earth's surface is covered by water. The ocean has been reported to hold about 97% of all the water on earth while water present in air, rivers, lakes, glaciers and biological systems constitute the remaining percentage.

<em>From the chart, D can be said to represent the amount of earth's surface water held by oceans while the rest (A, B, and C) can be said to be the amount of Earth's surface water that is not located in the oceans.</em>

The correct option is C.

RideAnS [48]

Water is a polar molecule bcz oxygen bears partial negative charhe and hydrogen bears partial positive charge. This results in extensive hydrogen bonding btween water molecules. The temperature is another way of saying the average kinetic energy of gases liquids or vibration for the case of solids. The Heat Capacity is the ability of matter to absorb thermal energy. Water's specific heat is defined as one. Water has high heat capacity because it can store heat in many ways. Which makes its capacity higher than anything
