What are three destructive effects of runoff? Some other effects from stormwater runoff include: Instead it runs off hard surfaces and, in a heavy rain, can lead to flooding, erosion and property damage. Water pollution. Water becomes polluted as it runs across lawns, driveways and other hard surfaces, when it collects oil, gas, fertilizers, pet […]

Which air can hold more water vapor? The maximum amount of water vapor that can be in the air depends on the air temperature. Warmer air can hold more water vapor within it. That’s why the muggiest days usually happen at the height of summer heat. But as the temperature goes down, the air can […]

Many Monkeys Are at Risk. They Use Grooming To Strengthen Relationships. Only New World Monkeys Have Prehensile Tails. There’s Only One Species of Wild Monkey […]

What does Div F mean? We also have a physical interpretation of the divergence. If we again think of →F as the velocity field of a flowing fluid then div→F div F → represents the net rate of change of the mass of the fluid flowing from the point (x,y,z) ( x , y , […]

Do charges move quickly through empty wires? It’s a common misconception that charges slow down as they go through the filament of a bulb because the filament is thinner than the wires in the rest of the circuit. Animation showing that the current is the same even if the wires have different thicknesses because the […]

How is aspartate Transcarbamoylase regulated? Regulation of De Novo Pyrimidine Biosynthesis In prokaryotic cells aspartate transcarbamoylase, an allosteric protein, is inhibited by the end product CTP and activated by ATP. Why is it important to regulate ATCase? The cell must precisely regulate the amount of CTP in the cell because making it can be energetically […]

How do you calculate the pressure of hydrogen gas collected over water? To obtain the gas pressure, subtract the vapor pressure of water from the total pressure. EXAMPLE: A 325 mL sample of gas is collected over water at 26oC and 742 mm Hg pressure. Calculate the volume of the dry gas at STP. The […]

Is 0 a rational number? Yes, 0 is a rational number. Since we know, a rational number can be expressed as p/q, where p and q are integers and q is not equal to zero. Thus, we can express 0 as p/q, where p is equal to zero and q is an integer. Is negative […]

How is a floodplain formed? Floodplains are formed through erosion which happens when a river constantly thrashes its sides, widening its own length. Furthermore, floodplains are a part of scenic beauty. How meanders are formed? The formation of a meander. As the river erodes laterally, to the right side then the left side, it forms […]
