What is a function of the backbone in animals?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nezavi [6.7K]3 years ago
6 0
Answer:

C - It surrounds the spinal cord.

Explanation:

Option A would be incorrect. Having a protective shell on an animal’s back would be one of the ways they would be protected against predators. And having a backbone wouldn’t really make a good shield against predators.

Option B is incorrect. The pancreas regulates blood glucose, not the backbone.

Option D would also be incorrect. It doesn’t limit movement unless it’s bent or positioned abnormally. Or unless it’s broken or malfunctioned.

The only option that is correct is option C. Hope it helps. ^^

Cu is in FCC structure. We know that even at close to melting temperature, vacancies are still sparsely distributed, i.e., it is
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

FCC is face centered cubic lattice. In FCC structure, there are eight atoms at the eight corner of the cubic unit cell and one atom centered in each of the faces. FCC unit cells consist of four atoms, (8/8) at the corners and (6/2) in the faces.

Given that, Cu has FCC structure and it contains a vacancy at origin (0, 0, 0). And there is no other vacancy directly adjacent to the vacancy at the origin. So, all the adjacent positions contain Cu atoms. Hence, the total number of adjacent atoms of the vacancy at origin can jump into this vacancy.

the above FCC unit cell clearly indicates that there are six adjacent atoms adjacent to the vacancy at origin

So, the total number of adjacent atoms of the vacancy at origin can jump into this vacancy is 6.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

Option d. is correct

Explanation:

Nitromethane is an organic compound that can be used as a fuel booster in rockets. Its chemical formula is CH_3NO_2.

This compound is produced as a result of reaction of sodium chloroacetate with sodium nitrite in aqueous solution.

The electron-dot structure of a nitromethane molecule shows +1 charge on the nitrogen.

Option d. is correct
