How are protozoans differentiated by means of their locomotory organelles?

The pseudopodia enable amoeboid locomotion, the cilia allow for ciliary locomotion. The flagella allow for flagellar locomotion and the myonemes allow for metabolic contractile locomotion.


What does measuring the amount of deuterium in the universe allow us to set a limit on?

The density of ordinary (baryonic) matter in the universe.


What is an instrument that measures volume?

All depends on what you are trying to measure. Could be as simple as a tape measure/ruler where you measure 3 along 3 axes (sides) for a simple shape to a sophisticaled, calibrated laser surveying. Which ever way, it is achieved in the same way(mostly), which is measuring lengths of the object (along certain axes(as in the plural of axis, wiki cartesian coordinates if you are interested to give you some insight). Afte the lengths have been found a volume can be found. For complicated shape this has to be broken up in to smaller achievable pieces, (even most of the very sophisicated technology does this) Alternatively if if it is to find the defining equation of the planes, it is possible to derive the volume of the object using calculus. another option is if you are measuring a fluid you can drop something of known volume and measure the displace,ment of the fluid and that would allow you to calculate the volume another option is ultrasonics for instance ultrasonic electromagnetic readiation is basically bounced through a material (for example a metal) and you measure the time it takes to propogate through the material,and if you know the density of the material and the length that is basically enough to be able to calculate volume also. either way it really depends on what you are trying to measure.


What is an instrument used for measuring length?

A ruler, a tape measure, a measuring wheel or a laser range finder.


Why is the temperature of blood higher than the body temperature?

Support blood flow, keep substances in soluble form, support metabolic activities, allow easy exchange of material across walls of the capillaries, and more.

What is the best way to measure windows for blinds and shades?

The best way to measure windows for blinds and shades is to use a measuring tape. Using a measuring tape will allow the individual to extend the tape until it can be measured.


Why does the liquid measuring cup have no rim above the 1 cup marker?

That particular type of measuring cup is actually made for measuring solids (flour, sugar and the like), not liquids, even though a cup is a liquid measure. There is no rim to allow for a straight edge to be used to level the measurement. Measuring cups, for actually measuring liquids, are graduated, and do not measure to the top, to prevent spillage.


How do you measure a round table?

When measuring for a rectangular tablecloth, naturally measure the length and width you need. Then, add at least half of the height of the table on both dimensions, in order to allow for overlap.


How do you measure the volume of a sugar cube with a measuring cylinder?

Due to the sugar cube being soluble, you should use a solution which does not allow sugar to dissolve e.g. kerosene. Just follow the usual way to measure solids with a measuring cylinder and you will have the volume of the sugar cube


What does the thinnest of the capillary walls allow?

only metabolic wastes out of the capillary


What kind of measuring tools would you use for a small room?

A yard stick would work, however a tape measure is a much better choice. A tape measure offers more flexibility and will allow you to measure distances greater than three feet without having to mark off lengths.

How much material do you need when measuring for curtains?

When measuring for curtains, the amount of material you need depends on the dimension of the window. A good rule of thumb when measuring the width is to double the measurements, to allow for gathering in the material.


How to measure menstrual blood loss?

You can get a menstrual cup such as a Mooncup which allows you to measure flow exactly. Menstrual cups are an internal menstrual product but safer than tampons so can be worn throughout your period without needing to alternate with pads, without risk of TSS or leaking. Most menstrual cups have measuring points on the side of the cup to allow you to measure flow.


Two types of measurements and gadgets use in technology?

For measuring distance, a ruler is basic. Best to have a steel engineering one for workshop use. Also of great use are vernier calipers, and micrometers, which allow you to measure small distances accurately.
