Diffusion stops when molecules reach the?
When molecules reach equilibrium, diffusion stops. This occurs when there is an equal concentration of molecules on both sides of the membrane and no net movement.
How hot is the inside of your mouth when consuming spicy foods?
When consuming spicy foods, the inside of your mouth can reach temperatures of around 110 to 170 degrees Fahrenheit due to the capsaicin in the spicy food.
Why does Fertilization usually occurs in the outer one-third of the uterine tube?
Fertilization occurs in the outer one-third of the uterine tube (fallopian tube) because this is where the egg is typically located after ovulation. Sperm can reach the egg in this region and fertilization occurs before the resulting zygote travels to the uterus for implantation.
Why can't all receptors be located inside the cell?
Not all receptors can be located inside the cell because some receptors need to be on the cell surface to interact with molecules outside the cell, such as hormones or neurotransmitters. These external molecules cannot pass through the cell membrane to reach receptors inside the cell.
When there is no net flow the cell is said to reach what?
When there is no net flow of water across the cell membrane, the cell is said to reach osmotic equilibrium. This means that the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell is balanced, resulting in no further movement of water molecules.
When does a tropical cyclone become a tropical strom?
When maximum sustained winds reach 39 mph.
What is a tropical cyclone in which winds reach speeds of 120 km?
A tropical cyclone with winds reaching speeds of 120 km/hr is categorized as a tropical storm. At this stage, the storm is characterized by organized circulation patterns and increasing wind speeds. If the wind speeds continue to intensify, the storm may progress into a hurricane or typhoon, depending on the region in which it occurs.
What speed does a hurricane have to be to be official?
A tropical cyclone officially becomes a hurricane when sustained winds reach 74 mph (119 km/h)
How is a tropical depression related to a hurricane?
They are both intensity levels of tropical cyclone. A tropical depressions forms when a tropical disturbance gains a defined center of circulation, but has sustained wind under 39 mph. If it continues to strenthen, it will become a tropical storm when winds reach 39 mph and a hurricane when winds reach 74 mph. Most hurricanes start development as tropical depressions.
What is the difference between tropical depression and a typhoon?
A hurricane is a tropical cyclone with sustained winds of at least 74 mph. A tropical depression is a tropical cyclone with winds less than 39 mph. Above that limit it is considered a tropical storm. A tropical depression is of much lower intensity and is generally not as well organized as a hurricane.
Why is a hurricane called a tropical depression?
A tropical depression is a tropical cyclone with winds under 39 mph. When winds reach or exceed that limit it is called a tropical storm and is given a name. Tropical depression 9 denotes the 9th tropical cyclone of that year in a particular ocean basin.
When is a hurricane considered a tropical storm and what are all the different types a storm a hurricane can turn into?
A hurricane cannot be a tropical storm as by definition a tropical storm is weaker than a hurricane. A tropical storm is a tropical cyclone with winds of 39-73 mph. Only when winds reach 74 mph or greater is the storm considered a hurricane. A hurricane can weaken into a tropical storm and from there into a tropical depression (winds under 39 mph). A tropical storm or depression may also degenerate into a remnant low, which is too disorganized to be considered a tropical cyclone. A tropical cyclone (hurricane, tropical storm, or tropical depression) may also become an extratropical cyclone after moving over land or cold water. Around the world hurricanes have different names. In the northwest Pacific ocean they are called typhoons, In the Indian ocean they are called intense tropical cyclones, and in the south Pacific they are simply called cyclones. However, these are just different names for essentially the same kind of storm.
What are the types of storms that form before a hurricane forms?
Tropical disturbance -> tropical depression -> tropical storm -> tropical cyclone (hurricane). *Hurricane is a local name, for tropical cyclones (official name) that appear in the Atlantic.
How fas does the wind in s hurricane?
To qualify as a hurricane a tropical cyclone must have sustained winds of at least 74 mph. In rare cases, however, hurricane winds can reach nearly 200 mph.
How strong must the wind be before it can be consider as a hurricane?
A tropical storm becomes a hurricane when sustained winds reach 74 mph
What happens to a tropical depression in a hurricane?
A tropical depression is a weak tropical cyclone wind sustained winds of less than 39 miles per hour. As the depression is fueled by moisture from warm ocean water it gains strength and becomes more organized. When wind speeds reach 39 mph it becomes a tropical storm. When they reach 74 mph it becomes a hurricane.
When is a tropical storm classified as a hurricane or a cyclone?
A tropical storm officially becomes a hurricane when it has sustained winds of 74 miles per hour (mph). There are categories of hurricanes depending on wind speed.Category 1 - 74 to 95 mphCategory 2 - 96 to 110 mphCategory 3 - 111 to 130 mphCategory 4 - 131 to 155 mphCategory 5 - 156 mph or higher
