Answer:

A. The moon's gravity and Earth's rotation

Explanation:

The Moon spins around the Earth, and in this movement, both the Earth is attracted to the Moon, and our natural satellite is attracted to Earth by the force of gravity. It is the gravitational attraction that the Moon exerts on Planet Earth, along with the rotation of the earth, that causes the movement of the oceanic waters, that we call rising tide.

The sun also influences the movement of the tides. However the influence of the Moon is much stronger, for although the Sun is much larger than the Moon, it is much further away, which reduces the intensity of gravitational attraction.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer: Felipe is wrong.

Explanation:

In diagram A, we can see that the light comes from the left, it first impacts on the Earth, and then we have the Moon.

Now, you can model this situation with a flashlight (the Sun) a basketball (the Earth) and a tennis ball (the Moon)

When you point with the flashlight at the basketball, the basketball will look bright, but it will cast a shadow behind it. This shadow will cover the tennis ball, and almost no light will reach the tennis ball, so it will not look bright.

This phenomenon is called a lunar eclipse, and this happens when the Earth is in between the Sun and the Moon. When this happens, we see the moon a bit darker and more reddish.

adelina 88 [10]
<span>This example is used to illustrate the point that there are times when context and purpose are not enough to resolve all issues or questions. Context means that you are considering your audience, where purpose means that you are understanding and contemplating why you are doing or stating something. Here, the author is illustrating how these can be unimportant to a solution.</span>

How many contractions per minute were required for the paramecium to maintain a relatively stable internal solute concentration
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

abt 24 contraction per min is needed to maintain a relatively stable internal solute conc.

paramecium maintain its volume by preventing itself from shrinking by holding in as much water as it can.

When the water solute concentration is reduced, the number of vacuole contractions will increase. But when the water solute concentrations rise, the number of vacuole contraction will decrease.

When the number of vacuole contractions will increase, the water solute concentration is reduced. But when the water solute concentrations rise, the number of vacuole contraction will decrease. So it is cetris paribus, means when the one is increase the other one will decrease.

A line graph has a vertical axis labeled "Average plant mass (g)^ * and a horizontal axis labeled "Herbicide (g/plant)." What in
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

The correct option is D. The average mass of plants exposed to 3 g of herbicide was 10g.

Explanation:

As the vertical axis is labelled as average plant mass, it will make the y- coordinate.

As the horizontal axis is labelled as Herbicide (g/plant), it will make the x-axis.

The coordinates for the given value are (3,10). 3 will be the value of the x- coordinate. Hence, it will show the average mass of the plant at the plotted point which will be 3 g.

10 will show the value of the y- coordinate which will be the amount of herbicide given to the plant.

Hence, Dis the correct option.
