Highly porous and permeable

Explanation:

Compared to other types of rock layers, an aquifer is highly porous and permeable.

Aquifers are always the target when prospecting for ground water in a formation.

  • Porosity is the amount of void spaces in a rock.
  • Aquifers are highly porous .
  • Permeability is the inter-connectivity of the void spaces and their ability to transmit fluids.
  • Aquifers have very high permeability compared to other rock types.

In terms of permeability and porosity, an aquifer is higher porous and permeable.

In the stable form of protein, the ________ is generally oriented to the interior of the protein molecule.
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Hydrophobic part

Explanation:

A protein is made up of amino acids. Some amino acids such as serine and threonine are polar and hydrophilic in nature as they have polar side chains. The other amino acids such as alanine and proline are non-polar as they have nonpolar side chains.

The polar amino acids of a polypeptide chain are folded towards the inside of the protein to avoid any interaction with the surrounding watery medium. On the other hand, the polar and charged amino acids are oriented towards the surface of a folded protein. This arrangement makes the proteins stable.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

It destroy both harmful and beneficial microbes.

Explanation:

If scientist added a chemical to destroy the arctic microbes, the beneficial as well as harmful microbes also eliminated from that area where chemical is applied. The removal of harmful microbes is a good thing but the removal of beneficial microbes brings instability in the environment. These beneficial microbes helps in the recycling of nutrients for the plants present there. So the negative effect of chemical is that it also effect the beneficial microbes which are necessary for the ecosystem.

What is the work generated by a healthy adult who circulates 9 l of blood through the brachial artery in 10 min 2 kj?
Pani-rosa [81]
You have also the total power generated is 200W

To figure out the kind of exercises, you need to master the definition of each unit. for example
power: watt (W) is joule/sec
Work: is Newton. meter = Joule

To obtain the work done by the adult, we have to convert the power (watt) into a work by multiplying by the time  (\frac{Joule}{seconds}  * seconds = Joule)
10 minutes is 60 * 10 = 600 seconds

200Watt * 600 second = 120000 joules = 120 Kj

So the work is 120Kj
