Percent error is calculated by the expression:

%error = |actual value - observed value| / actual value x 100

We calculate the error of the values as follows:

<span>a. 23.487 cm
% error = |</span><span>23.490  - 23.487| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.013%
</span><span>
b. 23.493 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.493| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.013%
<span>
c. 23.516 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.516| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.11%<span>

d. 23.501 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.501| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.05%<span>

e. 23.477 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.477| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.055%

Which two systems most directly interact in the fuzzy millipede's defense against ants?
Elanso [62]

Two systems most directly interact in the fuzzy millipede's defense against ants are :

<u>muscular and integumentary</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

  • The fuzzy millipede, Polyxenus fasciculatus, is found in Texas and is preyed upon by most species of ants.
  • Most millipedes defend themselves with a variety of chemicals secreted from pores along the body, although the tiny bristle millipedes are covered with tufts of detachable bristles.
  • Due to their lack of speed and their inability to bite or sting, millipedes' primary defence mechanism is to curl into a tight coil – protecting their delicate legs inside an armoured exoskeleton.
  • Reproduction in most species is carried out by modified male legs called gonopods, which transfer packets of sperm to females.
  • Millipedes overwinter, so they may hide in cracks or crevices throughout the whole winter and emerge in the spring.
  • These insects live in dark, damp places and feed on decaying plant life, sometimes damaging crops. But they can serve a good purpose too.
  • To protect itself against the ants, it ejects fibers from a tuft located at the tail end of its body. When an ant attacks, the millipede flexes its back end toward the ant and wipes the tufts against it.

Summarize variations in climate among three major zones as you travel south from the equator toward the South Pole?
Ainat [17]
Equator area: closest to the sun and hot and humid due to the mass evaporation from the excess heat. 

Mid equator/south pole: somewhat mild, colder, probably mid-humid, depending on which end of the midsection you're going for

South Pole: cold and dry. Cold because it's naturally far away from the sun (like the north pole) and dry because there isn't significant water evaporation here and any that may form crystallizes into snow and ice.

The diagram shows the molecular structure of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) The diagram shows a three-part structure. From left to
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The correct option is D. <u>The chemical bond breaks between the second and third phosphate groups.</u>

Explanation:

Adenosine phosphate (ATP) can be described as main energy-carrying molecules which are required by each cell to carry out its normal functions.

A molecule of ATP comprises of the nitrogenous base Adenine, pentose sugar ribose and three molecules of phosphate.

The bond between the second and third molecule carries high amounts of energy. When this bond is broken, huge amounts of energy is released which is used by the cells to carry out essential processes.
