How common is it to be a genetic carrier? The human genome contains around 25,000 different genes. It is estimated that everyone is a carrier of around half a dozen rare recessive genetic mutations Structural changes in a gene – they can be alterations to a gene’s size, arrangement, or molecular sequence. Do both parents […]

Are humans positively charged?
Are humans positively charged? Electricity is everywhere, even in the human body. Our cells are specialized to conduct electrical currents. Resting cells are negatively charged on the inside, while the outside environment is more positively charged. This is due to a slight imbalance between positive and negative ions inside and outside the cell. Can a […]

How do you read a spring balance?
How do you read a spring balance? The reading of the spring balance is the pulling force on it divided by the acceleration due to gravity g. Is spring balance used to measure pressure?

How does an inclined plane affect acceleration?
How does an inclined plane affect acceleration? As the angle increases, the component of force parallel to the incline increases and the component of force perpendicular to the incline decreases. It is the parallel component of the weight vector that causes the acceleration. Thus, accelerations are greater at greater angles of incline. What is the […]
