Answer:

Teeth start developing in the unborn baby. Good nutrition from the mother during pregnancy is important in tooth development. The mother's diet should have adequate amounts of calcium, phosphorus, vitamin C, and vitamin D. Certain medicines (such as tetracycline) should not be taken during pregnancy. These can cause the unborn baby’s developing teeth to be discolored. There are 4 main stages of tooth development:

The first stage begins in the unborn baby at about 6 weeks of pregnancy (gestation). This is when the basic substance of the tooth forms.

Next, the hard tissue that surrounds the teeth is formed around 3 to 4 months of gestation.

After the child is born, the next stage occurs when the tooth actually sticks out (protrudes) through the gum.

Finally, the child loses the primary or baby teeth.

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac

taurus [48]

Answer:

a. Speed = 1.6 m/s

b. Amplitude = 0.3 m

c. Speed = 1.6 m/s

Amplitude = 0.15 m

Explanation:

The frequency of the wave must be equal to the reciprocal of the time taken by the boat to move from the highest point to the highest point again. This time will be twice the value of the time taken to travel from the highest point to the lowest point:

frequency = $\frac{1}{2(2\ s)}$ = 0.25 Hz

The wavelength of the wave is the distance between consecutive crests of the wave. Therefore,

Wavelength = 6.4 m

Now, the speed of the wave is given as:

Speed = (Frequency)(Wavelength)

Speed = (0.25 Hz)(6.4 m)

Speed = 1.6 m/s

Amplitude is the distance between the mean position of the wave and the extreme position. Hence, it will be half the distance between the highest and lowest point:

Amplitude = (0.5)(0.6 m)

Amplitude = 0.3 m

frequency = $\frac{1}{2(2\ s)}$ = 0.25 Hz

Speed = (Frequency)(Wavelength)

Speed = (0.25 Hz)(6.4 m)

Speed = 1.6 m/s

Amplitude = (0.5)(0.3 m)

Amplitude = 0.15 m

How does having a sharp pointed beak limit what foods a bird can eat?

liraira [26]

Answer:

The shape of a bird's beak is a clue to its main source of food. The shape of a bird's beak is designed for eating particular types of food such as: seeds, fruit, insects, nectar, fish, or small mammals. Bird beaks have adapted over time to help birds find food within their habitat which allows them to survive. The beak, bill, and/or rostrum is an external anatomical structure found mostly in birds, but also in non-avian dinosaurs and some mammals. A beak is used for eating and for preening, manipulating objects, killing prey, fighting, probing for food, courtship and feeding young.
