Winds are deflected to the right as they move into a low pressure area in the Northern Hemisphere.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Winds decide the motion of ocean currents which forms the surface waves in the Earth's atmosphere to maintain the pressure region. The motion of ocean currents is based on Coriolis force which states the direction of motion of an object in a rotating system.
In the case of Earth, the Coriolis force has an effect on the ocean currents which are deflected from maximum to minimum pressure region in a curved path. So the winds formed by the ocean currents will generally get deflected at the right as they move into a low pressure area at the Northern Hemisphere from the high pressure region.
Explanation:
1. The entire span of possible sound waves is called the acoustic spectrum. It is subdivided into infrasonic sounds, audible sounds, and ultrasonic sounds.
2. The difference between a musical note and another note at twice the frequency is called an octave.
3. Sound intensity varies with the inverse square of distance.
Answer:
allow the downward movement of the concentration gradient by passive transport
Explanation:
Passive transport is a process of substance transport, which is carried out spontaneously, without energy expenditure and in favor of the concentration gradient, that is, from a medium where the molecules are more concentrated towards a medium where their concentration is lower.
Three types of passive transport are distinguished: osmosis, simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion
<u>Simple diffusion</u>
It is the passage, through the plasma membrane, of small molecules without charge soluble in the lipid bilayer, such as some gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide). For a molecule to diffuse through the membrane it is necessary that there is a difference in concentration between the external and the internal environment.
<u>Diffusion facilitated
</u>
There are molecules such as amino acids, glucose and small ions that, due to their chemical and size characteristics, cannot diffuse through the lipid bilayer and require transport proteins for diffusion.
The transport proteins are immersed in the plasma membrane and can be of two types: protein channels, formed by proteins that generate a channel in the membrane, and permeases, which are proteins that, when joined to the molecule to be transported, change their shape by carrying them into the cell.
