Energy can be converted from one form to another. Examples: Gasoline (chemical) is put into our cars, and with the help of electrical energy from a battery, provides mechanical (kinetic) energy. ... Similarly, purchased electricity goes into an electric bulb and is converted to visible light and heat energy.

Answer:

1. The chemical energy from food is converted into mechanical energy in order for humans/animals to move.  

2. Picture a child moving down a slide. As they go down, that child has kinetic energy. However, when they reach the bottom and stop, the kinetic energy is converted into potential energy. Conversely, at the top of the slide, the child has potential energy which is converted into kinetic energy once they start to go down.

3. Electrical energy from a fan is converted into kinetic energy once it is turned on. The kinetic energy is found within the blades of the fan, where they rotate and generate a cool breeze.

Explanation:

1. Chemical energy --> Mechanical energy

2. Kinetic energy --> Potential energy; Potential energy --> Kinetic energy

3. Electrical energy --> Kinetic energy

I hope this answer helps you <3

1. How did the term "planet" originate with the Greeks?
viktelen [127]
The greeks believed the Earth was stationary at the center of the universe while objects in the sky revolved around it. The Greek astronomers employed the term Asteres planetai meaning “wondering stars” for star like objects. By the 19th century the word planet thought it hadn’t been defined was the working term applied

What differs among DNA structures of different species?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

D) the arrangement of the nucleotides within genes

Explanation:

De-oxy ribo nucleic acid that is basically a polymer of nucleotides. Nucleotides are composed of three basic units: a de-oxyribose sugar unit, a phosphate group and nitrogenous bases that can be Adenine, Gunanine, Thymine and Cytosine.Adenine always pairs with Thymine and Guanine always pairs with Cytosine.

This is a universal composition of DNA in each and every living organism. The genes are a segment of DNA that contain specific sequence of nucleotides and encode for a specific trait of organism such as height, weight, eye color etc. The sequence of nucleotides expresses the trait in the form of protein product during the process of Translation. The products of translation are amino acids and every amino acids encode for a specific protein  in almost  all living organisms.

So, what differs in the specie is the sequence of nucleotides in genes. Infact this is the nucleotide sequence which brings evolution in organism and organisms evolve to form new specie with the passage of time. One major cause of change in nucleotide sequence is mutations due to which the organisms change with time.

Suppose the sequence of nucleotide of specific gene in organism A is

AAGGGGAAATTT

However in other specie organism B of same specie is:

TAGGGGAAATTT

This means only mutation of one base changed the gene in organism B and also its product called protein.

Hope it help!

Yeast is used in making bread. Explain why?
Margarita [4]

Explanation:

<h2>Yeast is used for the leavening of bread. Yeast uses the sugars and oxygen in dough to produce more yeast cells and carbon dioxide gas. This is called multiplication. The carbon dioxide makes the dough rise which gives the bread a light and spongy texture.</h2>
