<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>Part 1.</h3>

<em><u>The greater the mass, the greater the gravitational pull.</u></em> True.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Gravitational force is the attractive force applied on an object by the earth, which is equal to the mass of the object.

Gravitational forces is directly proportional to mass of object.

Hence greater the mass, greater the gravitational force.

<u><em>Gravitational pull decreases with an increase in the distance between two objects.</em></u> True.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Gravitational force depends upon the two factors:

Distance, between the object and earth.

Mass of the object.

Gravitational force is inversely proportional to the sequre of distance.

Hence increase in distance will lower the gravitational pull.

<em><u>If there were no gravity, planets would collide with another one. </u></em>True

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

As the gravitational pull on planets is the attractive force on planets by sun.

Due to which each planet is moving in distinct separated path.

As if there is no gravitational pull the planet will be no more in any path.

They will move randomly, colliding each other.

<em><u>An objects mass is less on the moon than it is on earth. </u></em>True

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

As the gravitational mass depends upon the mass and moon has less mass than earth.

Its gravitational force will also weak, it will attract object with less attraction, making mass of object less.

Because gravitational force is the attractive force applied on an object by the earth, which is equal to the mass of the object.

That's why an object on moon will has less mass than earth.

<em><u>The momentum of moving planets does not depends on their masses. </u></em>False

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The momentum in moving planets is known as angular momentum.

Angular momentum = mass × velocity × distance

So according to above formula momentum is directly proportional to mass.

Hence statement if false statement.

<em><u>The sun revolves in an orbit within our galaxy</u></em>. True

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Yes, sun revolves around the center of milky way galaxy.

The shape of milky way galaxy is spiral shape and we are moving aroun this galaxy's center at the speed of 828,000 km/hr.

It takes 230 million years to make one complete orbit around the Milky Way at high rates.

How do sodium and potassium leak channels play a role in the development of the negative membrane potential of the axolemma (pla

kirza4 [7]

The plasma membrane of axon is called axolemma. The potassium and sodium leak channels leak the sodium and potassium ions inside the cell respectively. The leak channels provide the constant movement of ions across the membrane. Potassium and sodium ions are positively charged, thus entry of positively charged ions inside the cell makes the cell more positively charged than the environment outside the cell. The environment outside the cell becomes more negatively charged. This leads in the negative membrane potential of axolemma.

Which statement correctly describes the nuclear envelope of a eukaryotic cell? See Concept 6.3 (Page 102) View Available Hint(s)

netineya [11]

The correct answer is: The nuclear envelope is continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum

The nuclear envelope or nuclear membrane is composed of two phospholipid bilayers (outer and inner) that surround the nucleus in the eukaryotic cell. The space between the outer and inner membranes is called the perinuclear space. The nuclear envelop has nuclear pores that are responsible for the transport between nucleus and cytoplasm (e.g. transport of mRNA).

Which of the following are functions of lipids? Choose three correct answers. A. forming the exoskeletons of insects B. forming

irina [24]

The three correct answers are;

B. forming waxy leaf coverings

D. storing energy in fat cells

E. forming cell membranes

Lipids are a large group of biological molecules that include phospholipids, fats, oils, waxes and some steroids. Almost all lipids are hydrophobic (i.e. insoluble in water). Lipids play many important different functions in a cell. Lipids are vital component of all cellular membranes. They store energy in the form of fats in the body. Waxy coverings on some leaves are composed of lipids. Lipids are also essential for heat insulation, cellular communication and protection.
