The Sidereal Day is 4 minutes shorter than the Mean Solar Day, because the rotation of the Earth on its axis, and the orbiting of the Earth around the Sun, are both counterclockwise, as viewed from above (or north of) the Ecliptic Plane. See planetary retrograde motion for an example of the opposite situation.
The reason that the Solar Day varies around the Mean Solar Day is that the Earth moves at different speeds through its orbit around the Sun. This is in keeping with Kepler's Second Law of Planetary Motion.
Please note that the Mean Solar Day changes over a long period of time, due to the slowing of the rotation of the Earth due to tidal forces exerted on the Earth primarily by the Moon. For example, the Mean Solar Day was about 23 hours about 250 million years ago.
Ossiculoplasty is the term to repair the outer ear.
Answer:
Behavioral responses in organisms require communication between an organism and its environment (option C).
Explanation:
The behavior of an organism depends on the function of relationship with the environment that surrounds it, and the way to respond to the diverse stimuli that are in this environment.
Behavioral responses always occur as a result of the interaction between the physical environment and other living organisms. This interaction triggers a series of stimuli that are perceived by the senses and processed by each organism, developing an appropriate response to each of them.
Answer:
The identity of a protein has relation with its amino acid sequence. This sequence is determined by the nucleotide sequence of the DNA of the gene transcribed to RNA and translated into amino acids. Protein identity determines its structure and function. The concentration of a protein refers to the percentage of protein that exists in a given solution. One way to quantify the concentration is with a spectrophotometer calculating the absorbance of the protein.
