Answer:
The process by which glomerular filtration occurs is called renal ultrafiltration. The force of hydrostatic pressure in the glomerulus (the force of pressure exerted from the pressure of the blood vessel itself) is the driving force that pushes filtrate out of the capillaries and into the slits in the nephron.
Answer: a-Male cones are smaller than female cones.
The cones are the characteristics of the gymnosperms plant species specifically to the Conifers. These plants exhibit naked ovules and the pollination in these cones is aided by the wind pollination. The male cones are smaller than the female cones and grows on the lower branches of the trees whereas the female cones grows on the higher branches. Each bract or scale of the male cone exhibit numerous pollen grains which are blown away by the wind and they pollinate the ovules of the female cones. Each bract or scale of female cone exhibit an ovule at the lower end. Each ovule is fertilized by the pollen to form the seed.
Answer:
Answer is option D.
The sun's energy is transferred through the vacuum of space to Earth by radiation.
Explanation:
The three forms of heat transfer are conduction, convection and radiation. The process of heat transfer between two solid objects in contact with one another due to a temperature difference is known as conduction. An ice cube melts while you hold it in your hand, is an example of conduction. Here, the heat energy from the hand is transferred to the ice cube and the ice melts.
Convection is the heat transfer occurs in moving materials (liquid or gas) due to the temperature difference between two regions. Hot soup rises to the top of the bowl, while cooler soup sinks to the bottom is an example of convection. The hot soup is less dense than cold soup, so it rises to the top and the cold soup at the top sinks to the bottom.
Radiation is a form of heat transfer where the heat energy is transferred through electromagnetic waves like infrared, UV rays etc. The sun's energy is transferred through the vacuum of space to Earth by radiation. Heat energy is transferred through vacuum by infrared radiation emitted by the Sun. The Earth absorbs it and turns the energy into heat.
