What 3 ways do inner planets differ from outer planets?
The inner planets are smaller and rockier than the outer planets which are made mostly of gases. Plus they are on different sides of the asteroid belt.
What is the difference between gram plus and?
Gram positive bacteria stain purple with the Gram stain. This is because of the fact that they contain a thick layer of murein in their cell wall, which takes up the stain very well. Gram negative bacteria, however, do not display the thick layer of peptidoglycan on their outer surface. Therefore, they stain red with the counter stain.
What cause skeletal muscle to relax-breakdown of thick and thin filaments into inactive polypeptides-sarcomere lengthening-sharp drop in cytoplasmic Ca plus plus levelsd-the transfer of Ca plus plus f?
External brunt force causes the skeletal muscle to relax-breakdown of thick and thin filaments into inactive polypeptides sarcomere.
What happens when Sodium and Hydrogen form plus 1ions?
they lose their outer electron to some other atom.
What are folded layers of the inner membrane in mitochondria called?
I think you are referring to the cristae. These are the folded parts of the inner membrane. The purpose is to increase surface area of the inner membrane against the matrix. The membrane is the site of the energy transfer in the mitochondria, so having more surface area is a plus.
What is the inner and outer core of the earth made of?
The inner and the outer core of the earth are made up iron and nikel mostly.
How does heat flow through the outer core?
The outer core is believed to be liquid - or at least plastic - so the heat will circulate by convection as well as conduction. Its composition is believed to be very similar to that of the inner core, which is solid because of the pressure. The heat of goth of these is about 6000oC, similar to that of the surface of the Sun, and is caused by the gravitational pressure, plus the radioactivity of the heavy elements in the core.
Is the inner core of Earth dense?
No one is exactly sure how dense the core of the earth is. All we know is that the core is solid of an unknown density probably the density of a hard rock, and is denser than water for sure.ans2. Studies of the behaviour of seismic waves have given us some ideas about the inner core. It is probably a nickel-iron mixture, with other heavy metal contamination. The heat due to radioactive decay has raised the temperature to 5700 deg C, but it is solid because of the pressure. Some of the temperature is due to gravitational pressure.The inner core possibly rotates slightly faster then the lithosphere, though opinion is not agreed on this.
What 3 ways do inner planets differ from outer planets?
The inner planets are smaller and rockier than the outer planets which are made mostly of gases. Plus they are on different sides of the asteroid belt.
Which planets have a thick atmosphere?
Define thick - all 4 outer planets plus Venus have thicker atmospheres than Earth.
The equation of the inner circle is x2 plus y2 equals 9 The radius of the outer circle is twice the radius of the inner circle What is the equation of the outer circle?
x^2+y^2=36
What is the features of the inner core?
The features of the inner core are.... well first you should know that the inner core is a very hard ball of magma that has been queezed together from the presure that all the other layers cause, that is why it is a very hard ball, plus it is very hot. Oh and Jesus loves you.
What is Ideal Self?
your "ideal self" is when you are content with your inner and outer appearence. Plus u get to see your ribs.
What is n2-11n plus 10?
F.O.I.L First, outer, inner, and last. (n - 1) (n - 10)
The equation of the inner circle is x2 plus y2 equals 4 the radius of the outer circle is four times the radius of the inner circle write the equation of the outer circle?
The inner circle is x2 + y2 = 4. The radius of the inner circle is the square root of 4, which is 2. To find the radius of the outer circle, multiply 2 times 4. The radius of the outer circle is 8. Square 8 (82 or 8 x 8) to find the number to put into the equation of the outer circle. This is 64. The equation for the outer circle is x2 + y2 = 64.
The equation of the inner circle is x2 plus y2 equals 9 The radius of the outer circle is three times the radius of the inner circle What is the equation of the outer circle?
The radius of the inner circle is sqrt(9) = 3. The radius of the outer circle is therefore 3*3 = 9. The equation for the outer circle is then x^2 + y^2 = 9^2 = 81. (This is an application of Pythagoras' theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2 in a right-angled triangle by the way)
What substance made up the very center or the earth?
The inner core and the outer core of our Earth are both made up of the heavy elements, mainly Iron and Nickel. Plus a god dose of radioactive metals as well. Most of the gold and platinum as well. The inner core is compressed so hard by gravity, that it is solid. This is known from the behavior of earthquake waves. The temperature may be up towards that of the surface of the Sun, 6 000oC or so. The outer core is composed of similar material, slowly circulating due to convection in a fluid, but lacking the very heavy elements. The upper surface of this also carries a burden of light weight silicate materials, originating in volcanoes and being kept in its own shorter term cycle of volcano, ocean sediment, subduction zone, volcano.
