Are landfills a problem?

Are landfills a problem? Landfill sites are pretty ugly. And it’s not just the sight of increasing piles of waste that’s the problem.

What are the three types of adaptations?

What are the three types of adaptations? There are three different types of adaptations: Behavioural – responses made by an organism that help it to survive/reproduce. Physiological – a body process that helps an organism to survive/reproduce. Structural – a feature of an organism’s body that helps it to survive/reproduce. How does cactus and camel […]

What is the importance of ribosomes?

What is the importance of ribosomes? Ribosomes facilitate the synthesis of proteins in cells (i.e., translation) (see Figs. 1-1 and 1-3). Their function is to “translate” information encoded in mRNA into polypeptide chains of amino acids that make up proteins. There are two types of ribosomes, free and fixed (also known as membrane bound). How […]

How are elements heavier than beryllium formed?

How are elements heavier than beryllium formed? Elements heavier than beryllium are formed through stellar nucleosynthesis. Stellar nucleosynthesis is the process by which elements are formed within stars. The abundances of these elements change as the stars evolve. What is the heavy element?

How we can measure shear rigidity?

How we can measure shear rigidity? Modulus of rigidity or shear modulus is the rate of change of unit shear stress with respect to unit shear strain for the condition of pure shear within the proportional limit. Modulus of rigidity formula is G = E/(2(1+v)), and modulus of rigidity is G, elastic modulus is E […]
