What are the three functions of the Golgi apparatus? The Golgi apparatus is responsible for transporting, modifying, and packaging proteins and lipids into vesicles for delivery to targeted destinations. As the secretory proteins move through the Golgi apparatus, a number of chemical modifications may transpire. What would happen to the life of cell if there […]
What happens to current If voltage is doubled?
What happens to current If voltage is doubled? if you increase the voltage (or electrical pressure) in a circuit then the current (flow of electrons) will increase in direct proportion, eg if you double the voltage the current flow will double. What if both voltage and resistance are doubled? and if the voltage and the […]
Can electrons exist alone?
Can electrons exist alone? Electrons have mass, charge, angular momentum, an intrinsic magnetic moment and helicity, but they have no known substructure. No two electrons can occupy the same space at the same time. They are part of every atom but they can exist separately on their own as well. What happens to the atoms […]
How long was the era of nuclei?
How long was the era of nuclei? 380,000 years What did the first Dying stars create? The nucleosynthesis that occurs during the explosion of a supernova produces elements with a higher atomic number than iron, which cannot be created by nuclear fusion. When the first stars died out this way, brand new elements, including gold, […]
Why red is more energetic than yellow?
Why red is more energetic than yellow? Since, red light has lower frequency than yellow, yellow has higher momentum than red, not mass. In a way, it’s the momentum of photons which cause the radiation pressure. If the hotter an object, the brighter it glows (more energy), then why is a blue flame less visible […]
What would happen if temperature and precipitation changed in a climate zone?
What would happen if temperature and precipitation changed in a climate zone? Changes in temperature and precipitation can disrupt a wide range of natural processes, particularly if these changes occur more quickly than plant and animal species can adapt. In response, average temperatures at the Earth’s surface are rising and are expected to continue rising. […]
What are the advantages and disadvantages of coal power?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of coal power? Coal energy is an affordable energy source because of the coal’s stable price compared to other fuel sources. Coal is easy to burn. Coal produces high energy upon combustion. Coal energy is inexpensive. Why should we not use coal? In 2012, coal accounted for 37.4% of […]
What is the difference between loudness and frequency?
What is the difference between loudness and frequency? Frequency (the number of vibrations or sound waves per second) is measured in Hertz (Hz). A sound that is 4,000 Hz (like the sound the letter “F” makes) has 4,000 waves per second. Intensity (loudness) is the amount of energy of a vibration, and is measured in […]
Had chlamydia for 2 years can I still get pregnant?
Had chlamydia for 2 years can I still get pregnant? Most women who have had chlamydia won’t have any difficulties conceiving that are related to the infection. There may be a greater chance of chlamydia affecting fertility if you have repeated infections or if it goes untreated and causes a condition called Pelvic Inflammatory Disease […]
What causes static electricity in a person?
What causes static electricity in a person? Static electricity is created when positive and negative charges aren’t balanced. Protons and neutrons don’t move around much, but electrons love to jump all over the place! When an object (or person) has extra electrons, it has a negative charge. Why is my laundry so static? What causes […]
