Answer: Answer is in the Explanation.

Explanation: At noon the sun is directly above in the sky, the sun's rays are falling on the body making the shadow smaller. While in the evenings and mornings the sun is at a inclined position, so the sun's rays are falling at a inclined position making the body's shadow larger.  

I looked it up on the internet and reworded it as good as I could.

algol13

Answer:

Explanation:

A solar collector is a device that absords Sun's heat energy to heat air or water. It is majorly used for heating purpose, and do not generate electricity directly.

The flow tubes and collector plate are black in color so as to increase the intensity of heat generated by the collector. A black body is a good absorber of heat, it absorbs most heat directed to the collector. Also, a black body is a good radiator of heat, the heat absorbed is rediated to the appropriate channels for the heating of water or air molecules. The black color increases the efficeincy and percentage of solar energy absorbed by the collector.

If a reflective color is used (e.g white), major percentage of the incident heat would be reflected. This would decrease the efficiency of the solar collector.

NEED HELP ON 17,18,19,20,21,22,23. ONLY IF YOU ARE POSITIVE ABOUT THE ANSWER!!!!
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

17. D. Chemical change

18. C. Cell wall

19. D. To transfer matter and energy within and between organisms.

20. A. Transporting materials

21. C. Carbon dioxide

22. A. Cellular respiration

23. C. Produce food and give off oxygen

Explanation:

I have been able to supply the correct answers. The cell wall functions as a structure that provides structural support and protection to the cell. It is tough, flexible and at times rigid. In a chemical change, new materials with new properties are manufactured. So, the process of photosynthesis is a chemical change.

The endoplasmic reticulum actually transports material. It transports materials like protein and lipids made within the cell and sends it to where they are needed.

Carbon dioxide  is the the gas that animals give off and plants use it during photosynthesis. Cellular respiration involves the activities that result to the breaking down of food in order to release energy.
