PLEASE ANSWER THIS FOR SCIENCE: Explain why light traveling through an eyeglass lens refracts.

Biology

Soloha48 [4]3 years ago

Answer: Light refracts whenever it travels at an angle into a substance with a different refractive index. This change of direction is caused by a change in speed. For example, when light travels from air into water, it slows down, causing it to continue to travel at a different angle or direction.

As the light rays enter into the more dense lens material, they refract towards the normal; and as they exit into the less dense air, they refract away from the normal. These specific rays will exit the lens traveling parallel to the principal axis.

Carbohydrate layer on the plasma membrane includes all of the following except:
irinina [24]

Answer:

c) Gives a cell its distinctive characteristics

Explanation:

Carbohydrates perform two main functions in the cell's membrane: <em>they participate in cell recognition and adhesion</em> (cell-cell signaling or cell-pathogen interactions), they also have a structural role as a physical barrier.

Most of the carbohydrates linked to the membrane are in the form of <em>glycoproteins oy glycolipids</em>, these are the molecules that share information and recognize host cells. <em>Glycocalyx </em>is another way we find carbohydrates in the cell membrane, this layer has cell-adhesion molecules that enable cells to adhere to each other.

I hope you find this information useful! Good luck!

Flu vaccines need to be revised and changed every year because the flu virus constantly mutates. Flu viruses can change in two ways: drift or shift. Antigenic drift occurs when genes of the virus slowly change during replication until the immune system no longer recognizes it. On the other hand, antigenic shift occurs when a major change in the virus happens. This usually leads to a totally different kind of virus. This is what happened during the H1N1 scare in 2009.

DNA viruses like mumps are less prone to mutation due to the presence of DNA polymerase. RNA viruses are more prone to mutation because they undergo reverse transcription to simulate the role of DNA.
