Explain what friction corollas and a low pressure gradient does to an air parcel?

Answer with Explanation:

Coriolis Force - refers to the fictitious force that acts perpendicularly to the direction of a rotating motion.

Air parcel - refers to a body of air that is <em>"imaginary."</em>

Pressure gradient - the change in pressure across a given distance.

Pressure gradient force - the net force that is being directed from high pressure to low pressure.

When an<em> air parcel is at rest, </em><u>the pressure gradient force acts upon it.</u> It will then move from<em> high pressure to low pressure.</em>

However, when the air parcel starts to be in motion, its direction will be changed with the help of the Coriolis force. Thus, it moves to the right side of the Northern hemisphere.

Once the speed of the wind increases, the change in direction of the air parcel increases. This happens until the pressure gradient force and the Coriolis Force are equal in magnitude. When this happens, the wind will start blowing parallel to the points of equal pressure. The wind will now then be referred to as in "geostrophic balance."

When friction happens, the geostrophic balance breaks. The flow of the wind will be slowed down. This means that the Coriolis force will also be lessened. The air parcel will then move towards the lower region.

<span>Bacteria are tiny. A typical bacterial cell is just a few micrometres across (a few thousandths of a millimetre). The structure of a bacterial cell is different to an animal or plant cell. For example, they do not have a nucleus but they may have a flagellum. This is a tail-like part of the cell that can spin, moving the cell along.A unicellular organism is a living thing that is just one cell. There are different types of unicellular organism, including: bacteria protozoa unicellular fungi You might be tempted to think that these organisms are very simple, but in fact they can be very complex. They have adaptations that make them very well suited for life in their environment.Protozoa are unicellular organisms that live in water or in damp places. The amoeba is an example of one. Although it is just one cell, it has adaptations that let it behave a bit like an animal: it produces pseudopodia (false feet) that let it move about its pseudopodia can surround food and take it inside the cell contractile vacuoles appear inside the cell, then merge with the surface to remove waste

You may be familiar with fungi from seeing mushrooms and toadstools. Yeast are unicellular fungi. They are used by brewers and wine-makers because they convert sugar into alcohol, and by bakers because they can produce carbon dioxide to make bread to rise. Yeast have a cell wall, like plant cells, but no chloroplasts. This means they have to absorb sugars for their nutrition, rather than being able to make their own food by photosynthesis Yeast can reproduce by producing a bud. The bud grows until it is large enough to split from the parent cell as a new yeast cell.</span>

il63 [147K]

Answer: The pathology described in the question is "testicular torsion".

The most sensitive physical exam that is specific to this pathology is testing for reflexes. The inner thigh of the affected side when rubbed should cause the testicle to contract; but in this pathology, it does not.

Explanation:

Testicular torsion is a condition caused by the twisting of the spermatic cord, which causes a loss of blood flow to the testicle. It is the leading cause of testicular loss in adolescent boys, if no surgical intervenvention is carried out as soon as possible.

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer: Add a different diet and maybe add an animal. If you put a bigger water bowl than the cage will become humid. If you change things about the terrain, its a desert so watering more plants and planting trees will make the ground more fertile to other plants. If you continue to take care of the plants until they are able to grow and reproduce. After enough time, where used to be a desert there will be a forest.

This shows that the animals are similar and that they develop similarly, implying that they are related, have common ancestors and that they started out the same, gradually evolving different traits, but that the basic plan for a creature's beginning remains the same.</span>
