Explanation:

Each section of the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum has characteristic energy levels, wavelengths, and frequencies associated with its photons. Gamma rays have the highest energies, the shortest wavelengths, and the highest frequencies. Radio waves, on the other hand, have the lowest energies, longest wavelengths, and lowest frequencies of any type of EM radiation. In order from highest to lowest energy, the sections of the EM spectrum are named: gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet radiation, visible light, infrared radiation, and radio waves. Microwaves (like the ones used in microwave ovens) are a subsection of the radio wave segment of the EM spectrum.

ankoles [38]

Answer:

The thyroid gland increase in size.

Explanation:

Iodine plays an important role in the generation of thyroid hormones and is mainly found in the soil in coastal areas and in seawater. In the developing nations, the individuals who live at high elevations or inland are generally deficient in iodine and can develop a condition known as goiters.

In the condition, the thyroid gland increases in size in an attempt to get more iodine. However, in the countries where iodine is added routinely to foods and table salt, the lack of dietary iodine is not the typical reason of goiters.

If the sequence of bases on one half of a DNA molecule is GATTACA, what is the sequence of bases on the opposite side (from left

AURORKA [14]

The sequence of bases on the other half of the DNA molecule would be CTAATGT from left to right, because each cytosine base pairs with a corresponding guanine base, and each adenine base pairs with a corresponding thymine base.

Which is the best example of a response to an external stimulus?

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

drinking water after a long run

Explanation:

When there arises a change or shift in the state or action of any organism because of any external stimulus, the result is said to be the response to external stimulus. The response or reaction to the external stimulus arises when the organism experiences or senses the stimulus.

Drinking water after a long run is an example of the response to external stimulus. Here, the external stimulus is the loss of water in the water because of the action of running. This makes the individual drink water which is a response to the external stimulus.
