Skeletal muscles mechanically move the body. Messages from the nervous system cause these muscle contractions.

Black coffee has a pH around 5; hand soap has a pH of 10. How many times more acidic is coffee relative

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 10^5 \ or \ 100,000 \ times \ more \ acidic}}$

Explanation:

The pH scale stands for the power or potential of hydrogen. It measures how acidic or basic a solution based on the concentration of hydrogen ions and a scale from 1 to 14.

This scale is unique because it is logarithmic. So, every time the pH changes by 1 on the scale, the actual concentration of the solution increases or decreases by a tenfold.

So, a solution with a pH of 7 is ten times more acidic than a solution with a pH of 8. This can be translated to:

$10^ {difference \ in \ pH}$

The black coffee has a pH of 5 and the hand soap has a pH of 10. We want to find how many times more acidic coffee is, so we subtract 5 from 10 and get 5. The difference in pH is 5.

$10^5=100,000$

Coffee is 10⁵ or 100,000 times more acidic than hand soap.

Which of the following correctly describes the relationship between the stolon and hyphae in fungi?a) Hyphae produce spores, and

Alja [10]

The answer is B. The stolon are hyphae that run horizontally and join one sporangiophore (vertically oriented hyphae with sporangia at tips) –with rhizoids as the ‘roots’ - with the other sporangiophore in the fungi population. They are analogous to rhizoids in eukaryotic runner plants. The attached diagram visually demonstrates this description.

In most cases, the two major climatic factors affecting the distribution of organisms in terrestrial ecosystems are __________.

sesenic [268]

Answer:

precipitation and temperature

Explanation:

Temperature and water are considered major abiotic factors that affect species distribution in terrestrial ecosystems. The temperature can affect the distribution of terrestrial organisms due to many species maintain a constant internal temperature, while other species maintain a body temperature range that may be very different from the environmental temperature, and therefore they will not be able to carry out their metabolic functions. Hibernation is an adaptation that allows some terrestrial animals to escape temperature fluctuations. Moreover, water is another limiting factor for life, since water is critical for cellular processes. The waxy cuticle is an adaptation that allows terrestrial plants to avoid excessive water loss through transpiration.
