Answer:

Explanation:

You must express whatever number you are given as something between 1 and 10. The rest is in powers of 10.

12700 = 1.2 which is between 1 and 10.

The rest is in powers of 10. You have to move the powers of 10 in the number of places you have to move the decimal.

To get to 1.2 you have to move the decimal 4 places. So the powers of 10 is

10 will be expressed as 10^4.

Answer: 1.27 * 10^ 4  km

natulia [17]

Answer:

Processing and packaging of cellular materials prior to export

Explanation:

Our cells contain many different organelles. Every organelle has its own function, just like every organ in our bodies.

The Golgi apparatus is one of these organelles. It can be found in most eukaryotic cells. Its purpose is to transport, modify, and package proteins and lipids before they're delivered to other parts of the body. This is the function the organelle with smooth-sided channels Megan is observing would need to perform in order to be identified as the Golgi apparatus.

The movement of nutrients into the vascular stele sometimes requires energy from:
Vlad1618 [11]
The movement of nutrients into the vascular stele requires energy, unlike the movement of water that does not require energy. This energy is provided by the phloem. Sugars are produced in the leafs, as part of the photosynthesis process, so whenever a new root is growing, or a fruit needs to grow, the phloem gets in action. With the help of the water the sugars get in the phloem, which can most simply be seen as an elevator inside the plant, that is moving nutrients up and down, on the places in which they are most needed.
