A ship sonar detects an echo 1.6s after it sends the pluse.The speed of sound in water in 1500mls work out how deep the water is

Biology
1 answer:
yaroslaw [1]3 years ago

Answer:

1200m

Explanation:

Let the depth of sea be x.

Given that the sound has to travel to the bottom of the sea and get reflected back to the ship itself, thus total distance traveled by the sound is 2x.

Time taken to hear an echo t=1.6 s

Therefore, 2x = vt

Hence, we have 2x =1500m/s × 1.6s

=> 2x = 2400

⟹ x = 2400 ÷ 2

= 1200m

Hence, the final answer is 1200m

Control of (blank) synthesis is the key to controlling the chemical pathway of the cell.
strojnjashka [21]
Controlling the synthesis of proteins is the key to controlling the chemical pathways in the cell.
This is because proteins have key roles in many chemical reactions in the cell.
The most important proteins for the chemical reactions in the cell are enzymes.
Enzymes catalyze many chemical reactions, therefore, the control of the enzyme synthesis is a direct way of controlling other chemical reactions in the cell.

Jack was sick with a cold and fever. the doctor prescribed him erythromycin, an antibiotic. analyzing the process of translation
KatRina [158]

Answer:

This is because it is a selective antibiotic that, when entering the body, binds to the 50s subunit of bacterial ribosomes, thus causing the disruption of protein transcription of bacteria.

This drug does not stop the transcription of human proteins since bacteria and humans do not have the same ribosomes, therefore, humans or sick cells do not have the active site to which the drug binds.

Explanation:

This is because it is a selective antibiotic that, when entering the body, binds to the 50s subunit of bacterial ribosomes, thus causing the disruption of protein transcription of bacteria.

This drug does not stop the transcription of human proteins since bacteria and humans do not have the same ribosomes, therefore humans or host cells do not have the active site to which the drug binds.

Erythromycin falls into the macrolide family and is considered a drug that is bacteriostatic at low concentrations and bactericidal at very high concentrations.

The difference between these named terms is that one ends the life of the bacterium (bactericidal) and the other stops the bacterial metabolism preventing its possibility of increasing in number.
