Answer:Desventajas del hidrógeno como fuente de energía

Una desventaja de producir este hidrógeno como fuente de energía es que su densidad es muy baja, por lo que se requieren tanques más grandes para guardar la misma cantidad de masa. Si lo comparamos, un tanque de hidrógeno necesita más espacio y más peso que uno para almacenar la misma cantidad.

El proceso de extracción se le conoce como electrólisis, que consiste en la descomposición de las moléculas de agua (H2O) en oxígeno e hidrógeno. La desventaja de esto es el elevado precio que esto conlleva pues se necesita mucha energía — no renovable en la mayoría de los casos — para alimentar los electrolizadores.

Hydrogen Energy is Expensive
Electrolysis and steam reforming, the two main processes of hydrogen extraction, are extremely expensive. This is the real reason it's not heavily used across the world. Today, hydrogen energy is chiefly used to power most hybrid vehicles.

Why are cells so small?

Harrizon [31]

The surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger. If the cell grows beyond a certain limit not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume.

<h2>The correct answer is (C).</h2>

Explanation:

Tendons are the connective tissues that connects a muscle to other body parts, such as bones.

Tendons transfer the mechanical force of muscle contraction to the bones.

Tendons are strong in nature which have a high tensile strength.

Its strong nature help to withstand the stress which is generated by muscular contraction.

Ligament belongs to the fibrous connective tissue which connects bones to other bones.

Ligament are also known as true ligament, fibrous ligament, articular ligament.

Ligaments shows similarity with tendons and fasciae as they are also made up of connective tissue.
