Biology

The burning of fossil fuels does not contribute to ozone layer depletion.

The burning of fossil fuels leads to the release of gases such as oxides of nitrogen, sulfur, and carbon as well as particulate matter such as smoke, ashes, etc.

The oxides released from fossil fuel burning can cause global warming (carbon dioxide), acid rain (SO2), and air pollution (particulate matter).

Ozone layer depletion is caused by pollutants such as halocarbons, solvents, etc.

Easy points 1 suggest what the drug longmasterol might do to the body to affect reaction time 2describe the effect of longmaster
Semmy [17]

Answer:

4.Antagonistic muscles are muscles that have opposite effects to one another,As one relaxes, the other contracts.

5, This is to move bones in tandem to cause locomotion.As as one contracts, and the other relaxes, the bone is pulled and this shifts the position of the bone to cause locomotion.Note, a muscle cell usually pull in one direction.,

6. it lacks nucleus to have enough space for oxygen carrying molecules(haemoglobin)it has bi-concave shape to squeeze through tinny capillaries to reach tissues and have large surface area for oxygen carriage.They contain Oxygen carrying pigment Haemoglobin.

1.This is a stimulant that increases the rate of excitability by increasing the synaptic connection through increase in amount neurotransmitters, at synaptic junctions

2,This accelerate the rate of ageing.Leading to premature aging.it ,may affect the heart efficiency and the entire cardiovascular system at the long run.

3. After a period of time this may cause liver damage by blocking blood flows to the liver.It may also lead to inhibitory effect of detoxification activities of the liver.This leads to hepatic failure.

7. A state of matter can only be compressed at  the gaseous state.it can not be compressed at solid because the inter molecular forces are very strong and the molecules of solids are well compact. Molecules of liquids are not free neither, although their molecular force are weak, But the molecules can not be compressed, since they lack random motion.

8. This is due to the lattice arrangement of water molecules in ice, resulting in lesser density of ice compare to that of water. The lower density of ice makes ice to float when it freezes, however, it is the higher lattice arrangement in ice which makes it expand, compare to other liquids which makes it less dense and therefore floats.

10. This can be caused by the force that pull water through the mains to the pipes.it is measures in bars. Thus 1 bar is equal to the force per unit area lifting water to a height of 10 meters.

9. This is to generate a forward thrust, to overcome the aerodynamic drug.The propeller engine generate a thrust, which ensure a steady speed  large enough to overcome the drag

Explain why facilitated diffusion may need to occur and in what direction the particles diffuse in. Identify the molecules that
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Sometimes molecules cannot move through the cell membrane on their own. These molecules need special transport proteins to help them move across the membrane. Facilitated diffusion is the diffusion of substances with the help of transport proteins in the plasma membrane. These special proteins are called channel proteins or carrier proteins, and they are attached to the cell membrane. In fact, they go through the cell membrane, from the inside of the cell to the outside. Facilitated diffusion is used for molecules that cannot diffuse rapidly through cell membranes on their own, even when the molecules are moving from high to low concentration areas. An example is the sugar plants and animals use for energy, called glucose. Even though facilitated diffusion involves transport proteins, it is still passive transport because the solute is moving down the concentration gradient so it does not require the use of cellular energy.

A) Water that falls from the clouds towards the ground, especially as rain or snow.

B) The continuous movement of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth.

C) When plants or animals create offspring.

D) a recurring  process where dead plants decomposes and provides nutrients to the soil that are absorbed by plant roots, making more plants grow.
