1. The oceans and the atmosphere are the two large reservoirs of water in the Earth's hydrologic cycle. The two systems are complexly linked to one another and are responsible for Earth's weather and climate.  The oceans help to regulate temperature in the lower part of the atmosphere.  The atmosphere is in large part responsible for the circulation of ocean water through waves and currents.  However, the ocean is primarily a liquid and the atmosphere is mostly gas, so they are different states of matter.

2. The main reason airplanes fly in the stratosphere is because this is where the least amount of turbulence is found. In addition, because the stratosphere is very dry, there are fewer clouds in this layer, making for a much smoother ride overall. It is simply the perfect layer to fly in for a number of reasons. Flying higher than the stratosphere will again cause disturbances.

This is an example of repetition.
Repetition is an important literary device since it allows a speaker or a writer to put emphasis on items they choose to be significant. it is an important tool for authors and speakers in developing style, tone, and rhythm. It tells the audience or the reader that the words that are being used are central enough to be repeated, and also lets them know when to pay a special attention to the language.

A slice of pizza has 500 kcal. If we could burn the pizza anduse all the heat to warm a 50-L container of cold water, what would
kap26 [50]

Answer:

c. 10°C

Explanation:

Given that: A slice of pizza has 500 kcal.

That is to say Q = 500kcal

If the pizza was burned and all the heat were used to warm a 50-L container of cold water,

what  would be the approximate increase in the temperature of the water?

We were also being told to note that; A liter of cold water weighs about 1 kg.

i.e 50-L container weighs about 50kg (mass)

∴ Since;

Q= 500kcal,

m = 50kg; &

the specific heact (c) = 1

we can find the approximate increase in the temperature of the water by using the formula:

Q = mcΔT

ΔT = \frac{Q}{mc}

ΔT = \frac{500}{50*1}

ΔT = 10°C

The strand of dna used in the previous problem undergoes a mutation, such that the second c from the 3' end is changed to a
dlinn [17]
This mutation type is a substitution mutation. Substitution mutations may be silent or may have adverse effects (missense mutation).
Adverse effects come about because the change in codons in mRNA transcribed from the DNA strand. A point substitution can change the amino acid being coded for in the particular polypeptide change. If that animo acid is a structural residue of the protein, the structure of the protein will be altered, which may or may not lead to a change in protein function. If that particular amino acid is a catalytic residue of the protein, it may alter the 3D conformation and charge of the active site (if protein is an enzyme) or the binding site of protein. Function of protein formed from mutated DNA will be lost or altered.

Hope this helps! :)
