washed downstream. Which of the rocks below was prob-
ably transported the least distance.

24. Four Identical Rocks Four Four Identical Rocks Were Dropped Into A Stream And Werewashed Downstream.

Answers

Answer 1
rock #3 because it’s one of the bigger ones and it is also a rectangle shape making it more difficult for it to just roll on down
Answer 2

Less distance may be traveled with grains whose sizes are greater and more erratic. This is because as a stream moves downstream, its velocity progressively diminishes, causing the big and irregular grains to settle the first, hence option 3 is correct.

How are sediments transported?

Both a reduction in particle size and rounding of initially angular pieces are effects of the protracted transport of material by water and wind current. The grains get smaller and more spherical the farther they have to travel.

Erosion, transport, and deposition all result in the formation of sedimentary rocks. A sediment's grain size provides crucial details on (1) the agent that caused the erosion/transport of the sediment and (2) the current's speed.

Therefore, as a stream moves downstream, its velocity progressively diminishes, causing the big and irregular grains to settle the first, hence option 3 is correct.

6. In general, as both the force and velocity of impact increase, what happens to the diameter of
the resulting blood droplets?

Answers

Answer: depending on viscosity, mass and velocity of impact, if droplet integrity is maintained, as velocity increases, diameter will increase from

Approximately d*sqrt(2) to 2*sqrt(d^3/6a) where d is original diameter and a is thickness when the droplet flattens into a disc.

Explanation:

This applies generally to any liquid droplet, which by inference falls and impacts a solid surface. The impact force is mgh where m= mass, g= acceleration due to gravity, h= initial height.

A liquid droplet deforms on impact. Assume the drop is sperical, then the deformation distance, d= diameter of the droplet then the average impact force = mgh/d.

The droplet may spread, splash or bounce, depending on viscosity and force, which depends on mass and velocity immediately before impact.

All than can be said is that if the droplet maintains integrity it could achieve the shape of half a highly flattened oblate spheroid. Approximating this with a flattened disc of thickness a, and an original volume of 4/3pi(d/2)^3, the volume as a disc =a*pi*r^2 so the horizontal diameter = 2*sqrt(d^3/6a)

It is not really possible from the available data to determine whether the droplet would remain its integrity, but at sufficiently low force/velocity, the droplet could retain a near-hemispherical shape, giving a horizontal diameter of the hemisphere = d*sqrt(2)

As velocity increases, if integrity is maintained, the diameter will increase from the second approximation to the first

what are the reproductive systems of insects?​

Hey! Your answer to this question..

What are the reproductive systems of insects?

Insects that’s is female can make eggs, receive and store sperm, manipulate sperm from different males. They can also lay eggs of course. Insects reproductive systems are made of a pair of ovaries, accessory glands, one or maybe even more spermathecae, and lastly ducts connecting these parts. The ducts and spermathecae are line with a cuticle.

Which atom is involved in giving your heart energy to beat?
O carbon
O gold
O oxygen
O iron​

Answers

Answer:

Oxygen

Explanation:

-How fast the heart beats depends on the body's need for oxygen-rich blood. At rest, the SA node causes your heart to beat about 50 to 100 times each minute. During activity or excitement, your body needs more oxygen-rich blood; the heart rate rises to well over 100 beats per minute.

-The heart, like any organ, requires blood for oxygen and other nutrients so it can do its work. The heart does not gather oxygen or nutrients from the blood flowing inside it. Instead, it receives blood from coronary arteries that eventually carry blood into the heart muscle.

In those parts of equatorial Africa where the malaria parasite is most common, the sickle-cell allele constitutes 20% of the b hemoglobin alleles in the human gene pool. In the United States, the parasite that causes malaria is not present, but African-Americans whose ancestors were from equatorial Africa are present. What should be happening to the sickle-cell allele in the United States, and what should be happening to it in equatorial Africa

Answers

Answer:

directional selection, stabilizing selection

Explanation:

Directional selection is a type of natural selection that favors one extreme phenotype over other phenotypes, thereby modifying allele frequency in the direction of the favored phenotype. This type of positive selection is the main cause of phenotypic diversification. In the USA, the environment created a selection pressure that favored individuals that don't have the defective sickle-cell allele, thereby reducing its frequency in this population. Stabilizing selection, also known as balancing selection, is a type of natural selection where the most common phenotype is selected in the population, thus predominating in future generations. In equatorial Africa, the defective sickle-cell allele is present in a high frequency because individuals that are heterozygous for this allele are less susceptible to malaria, and therefore balancing selection should maintain this allele in the African population.

Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and carotenoids. Chlorophyll directly absorbs light for use in photosynthesis.
Carotenoids absorb light and transfer the energy from light to chlorophyll. The efficiency of photosynthesis varies with
the wavelengths of the light that illuminates the chloroplasts. In an experiment to study the relationship between the
incoming light wavelengths and the chemical reactions of photosynthesis using a species of green algae, a researcher
labeled the COt2 supply to the algae with 14C, and the H20 with 180.
Which of the following results is expected?
O More 14C is found in the algae when it is illuminated by green light than when it is illuminated by blue-violet and red
light.
O More 180 is found in the algae when it is illuminated by green light than when it is illuminated by blue-violet and red
