<span>Refraction happens when there</span> is a bending of path of a light wave as it
passes across the boundary separating two media and the degree of bending is
determined in part by the total change in velocity as the light<span> passes from one medium to the other. In
addition, the change in speed experienced by a
wave when it changes medium can result in a number of beautiful optical effects. </span>
The carbon footprint can be decreased by a great amount if the incandescent bulbs are replaced with the compact fluorescent bulbs. The compact fluorescent bulbs uses approximately seventy five percent less energy than the incandescent bulbs as they do not use heating mechanism to light. This leads to less emission of the green house gases and thereby reducing the carbon footprint.
Hence, the correct answer is 'option a - replacing incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs'.
Eukaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. The nucleus is where DNA, your genetic material, is usually stored. Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. The DNA just floats around the cell instead of staying in one designated area.
The atomic number of an isotope is the number of protons it contains, whereas the mass number is the total mass of the nucleus, which is the combined number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. To find the number of neutrons, you must therefore subtract the atomic number of the isotope from the mass number of the isotope.
<span>In the above example, the atomic number is 8 and the mass number is 18. This isotope is known as O18. The number of neutrons in the isotope is: Mass number - Atomic number = Number of neutrons
