What process does deep sea organisms depend on?
A lot of organisms that thrive in the deepest parts of the ocean rely heavily on chemosynthesis. Chemosynthesis is most commonly seen near thermal vents and involves the biological conversion of 1+ carbon molecules (methane/CO2) and nutrients into organic matter. This is made possible through the oxidation of inorganic molecules such as H2 or Hydrogen Sulfide; these are used as a source of energy, rather than radiation from the sun.
What is the prime mover in a thermal system?
temperature differences
What is the thermal death point of Bacillus subtilis?
@65 degrees centigrade and above bacillus subtilis will have attained its thermal death point
2. Both newborn infants and aged individuals have very little subcutaneous tissue. How does this affect their sensitivity to cold environmental temperature?
Subcutaneous tissue or the hypodermis contains adipose tissues or fats. One of its functions is to insulate (thermal insulation) the body or provides some insulation from cold. Thermal insulation is the reduction of the effects of the various processes of heat transfer between objects in thermal contact. So, subcutaneous serves as the clothing of the human body to maintain the temperature or protection from the cold environment.
What bacteria live in deep thermal vents?
Extremophiles and sulfide metabolizing bacteria.
What provides the thermal energy for currents to be formed?
The sun provides the thermal energy for currents to be formed.
Why must it be the sun that provides thermal energy to the earth?
Sun provides heat to earth's surface. It provides thermal energy to the earth.
Why do biological organisms violate the law of thermal dynamics?
No biological entity violates any of the laws of thermodynamics.
What Specific organisms with biological chemical or thermal agents cause diseases?
Pathogens
What is geological physical Weathering?
•Aeolian • •Biological weathering • •Exfoliation • •Thermal Expansion
How we can do zinc thermal diffusion coating-?
Zinc thermal diffusion coating can be done by following the patented Greenkote process.
What are the 4 causes of weathering?
frost weathering, thermal stress, salt wedging, and biological weathering
The process of transferring thermal energy is?
conduction!
What is the process of transferring thermal energy?
convection
What is the process of thermal expansion?
Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change in temperature.
What are sources of heat?
Sun is the source of heat. It also provides thermal energy.
What sources of Heat?
Sun is the source of heat. It also provides thermal energy.
