What causes a greater amount of pressure in the inner core?

2 answers:

6 0

It turns out that many materials can be solid at a higher temperature if the pressure is also higher. so even though it is hotter in the inner core the pressure in the core is also higher and you can have a solid iron nickel instead of liquid

Answer 1: The inner core is indeed hotter than the outer core. However, the PRESSURE on the inner core is greater than the pressure on the outer core and the melting point of iron, the main constituent of the core, INCREASES as the pressure goes up.

Amanda [17]

A stands out most to me, CO comes from the air and air is basically oxygen we breath. When we exhale CO comes out (of course). I would say A is correct.

The slope is also know as

siniylev [52]

Answer:

rise over run

Explanation:

rise refers to the number of units going u or down a graph

run refers to the number of units going left or right

it is seen as so; $\frac{rise}{run}$ , $\frac{ delta y}{deltax}$ , or $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x{1}}$

Don't panic when I included "delta". Delta, it refers/means the small mathematical triangle found beside the rise and run symbols of y and x

During the Human Genome Project, scientists created a gene map showing the relative location of each known gene on every human c

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

Approximately 20,500 genes

Explanation:

The Human Genome Project (HGP) was a 13-year international research effort aimed at determining the entire DNA sequence of the human genome. The HGP was launched in 1990 and completed in April 2013. This project helped to identify and physically map all the genes of the human genome. The sequence obtained from the HGP has been a very useful point of reference in order to identify and characterize mutations associated with genetic disorders. The HGP predicted approximately 20,500 genes (each of them produces an average of three proteins), which are distributed in the 23 pairs of chromosomes in the cells of our body.

An enzyme that can bind to and break apart molecules of lactose should also be able to bind: a. fatty acids. b. amino acids. c.

Airida [17]

Answer: Option E) None of the above is true; this enzyme could bind none of these.

Explanation:

Lactose is a dissacharide composed of glucose and galactose. Hence, the enzyme lactase break down lactose into its simple sugar constituents.

However, lactase cannot bind nor break down amino acids, starch (with only glucose units) or sucrose (with two glucose units) because their constituent molecules differ markedly from that of lactose.

Thus, the enzyme lactase could bind with none of the options provided except lactose
