Quantitative measurements are those that deal with a quantity, for example:
Mass of as sample
Length of a piece of wire
Molecules in a mole
Volume of a gas
Temperature of a sample

These types of measurements are called Extensive.

Qualitative measurements are those that deal with the quality, for example:
Color of a sample
Texture of a surface
Coarseness of a powder
Aroma of a reaction
Malleability of a metal

These types of measurements are called Intensive.

Place the following events of excitation in the correct order. 1) ion channels on the sarcolemma open and sodium ions enter the
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

4, 3 5, 1, 2.

Explanation:

The events of muscle contraction begins from the presynaptic neuron, which cause the influx of Ca+, and the release of acetycholine neurotransmitter  into the synaptic cleft.

The Ach, binds with the receptors in the sarcolemma, leading to opening of Ligand gated Na+ channels. Therefore Na+diffuses in, causing depolarization, and propagation of action potential along the sarcolemma  spreading to the  T-tubules.

This is followed by opening of Calcium channels leading  exist of Ca+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

The Calcium binds with the troponin, and  Tropomysoin exposed the myosin binding sites  on the actin filament.Thus cross-bridge is formed by the myosin head  with thin filaments which   shortened the sarcomere, leading to contraction of muscle fibres.

A scientist is using relative dating to determine the age of a fossil that she discovered.
Dmitry [639]

Answer: D.finding fossils in the same area that are in layers closer to the surface.

Relative dating refers to the age estimation method in which past events are determined, to compare the age of object, organism, strata or rock with the age of other similar entity. This method gives an approximate or estimated age, it does not provide absolute age.  

The older fossils are found in deeper layers of the strata as compared to younger fossils. This represents the geological time and life span of primitive or preexisting organisms. Therefore, according to the given situation, finding fossils in the same area that are in layers closer to the surface is the best conclusion.

Meiosis ensures the transmission of traits from one generation to the next. At the same time, it is a key process that introduce
rodikova [14]

Answer:

See the explanation below, what is the question you intend to ask anyway?

Explanation:

  • Meiosis transmit traits from one generation to the next. It the  key process that brings genetic variation into the traits that offspring inherit from their parents.  In the life cycle of an organism, meiosis is paired with the process of fertilization.
  • Meiosis produces two daughter nuclei with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell as each other.The chromosomes are re-grouped during meiosis to form new combinations of genes. Genetic reunion is very important as a source of genetic variation.

If you increase the number of water molecules in the extracellular fluid, will the membrane move to the right or the left in the
Igoryamba

Answer:

The membrane will move to the left in view of the applied pressure.

Explanation:

The scenario described can be perfectly illustrated through understanding the concept of osmosis.

Osmosis can be defined as the movement of particules or molecules in a solvent from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration, through a semi permeable membrane.

To put differently, the movement of water molecules is from a region of lower osmotic pressure to a higher one. And for osmosis to be achieved and water molecules evenly distributed, pressure built must be slow and steady to a state of high or equilibrium.

This often results to movement of membrane to the left as a response to the osmosis phenomenon. Increasing the number of water molecules in the extra cellular fluid will thus accelerate this process, increase the pressure built up, and thus generate ripples from a lower area to a higher one. Osmosis is thus gradual and steady.
