Answer:

a) Scales of pine closes and opens up with the variation in moisture content of air.

b) Cold sunglass meets warm moisture laden air and hence water droplet are suspended on the surface of sunglass.

Explanation:

a) Being a natural hygrometer, pine cone through its physiological activities indicate the presence of humidity in air.

The ridges of the pine consists of scales and the seed is inside it. In a humid environment, the scales absorbs moisture and swell and close the cone. This also prevents the seed from rotting due to excess moisture. With the reduction in moisture content of air, moisture in the  scales of pine cone evaporates and the cone open up.

b) Sunglass gets cold since it is inside the airconditioned temperature of car. When the sunglass is placed outside the car window, moisture laden hot wind strikes the cold sunglass and it suspends its moisture there on the surface of glass as water droplets.

As discussed in Unit 10 of The Physics Classroom Tutorial, electromagnetic waves are waves that are capable of traveling through a vacuum. Unlike mechanical waves that require a medium in order to transport their energy, electromagnetic waves are capable of transporting energy through the vacuum of outer space. Electromagnetic waves are produced by a vibrating electric charge and as such, they consist of both an electric and a magnetic component. The precise nature of such electromagnetic waves is not discussed in The Physics Classroom Tutorial. Nonetheless, there are a variety of statements that can be made about such waves.

Which diuretic remains effective when creatinine clearance drops below 25 ml/min?
OLga [1]
Loop Diuretics

These are diuretics that exerts effect on the loop of Henle.  They are primarily used in heart failure, hypertension and edema. In contrast with Thiazides, loop diuretics are more  effective in patients with abnormal kidney function. Loop diuretics inhibit the magnesium and calcium reabsorption in the thick ascending limb of Henle. Loop diuretics is highly protein bound. It has volume of distribution that is limited. This causes the diuretics to be secreted in the convuluted tubules  to exert its function.

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

<h2>lactic acid</h2>

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the process of the breakdown of glucose by enzymes, and the energy production in the cell. It occurs in all cell in all organism. Through glycolysis, there is the production of ATP and NADH, which are used in energy requirement. Glycolysis occurs in cytosol, with the help of various enzymes, like hexokinase, phosphofructokinase and PEP etc. When glycolysis produces pyruvic acid faster than it can be used by the mitochondria, the pyruvic acid is converted to lactic acid.
