how do mountains influence climate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

They affect climate by blocking wind and receiving more rainfall than low-lying areas. As air is forced over higher ground, it cools, causing moisture to condense and fall as rain. The higher a location is above sea level, the colder it is.

Answer 2

Answer:

Mountains can affect the climate of nearby lands. In some areas, mountains block rain, so that one side of a mountain range may be rainy and the other side may be a desert. Much of airborne moisture falls as rain on the windward side of mountains.

The sodium-potassium pump regulates the amount of sodium and potassium inside of cells, particularly nerve and muscle cells. In this process, an ATP is burned, causing three sodium ions to be pumped out and exchanged for two potassium ions, which are pumped in by a membrane protein. Both ions go against their concentration gradients.


The sodium-potassium pump is an example of

a. phagocytosis.
b. passive transport.
c. active transport.

The biomolecule described below is a _______________.


a. lipid


b. monosaccharide


c. carbohydrate


d. protein

Answers

Answer: it’s lipid

Explanation:

The biomolecule described below is a lipid because they are large and non-polluting molecules.

What is the main function of lipids?

Lipids are responsible for providing energy, being in the form of fat that our body stores the excess energy we consume through food to use in times of need.

They are substances whose main characteristic is the insolubility in polar solvents and the solubility in organic solvents (nonpolar), presenting a hydrophobic nature, that is, aversion to the water molecule.

Lipids have unique characteristics that allow them to be quickly identified, for example because they are large and non-polluting molecules.

The process of transferring energy during respiration occurs in a series of steps. This prevents too much heat from being released at one time. Maintaining an appropriate temperature is beneficial to an organism because A) enzymes need a proper range of temperatures to catalyze vital reactions B) cellular waste products can only be excreted in cooler temperatures C) hormones can only produce antibodies if temperatures are not excessive D) nutrients diffuse faster into cells when temperatures are lower

Answers

Answer:

A) enzymes need a proper range of temperatures to catalyze vital reactions

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process by which living cells synthesize ATP (energy). The synthesized energy is transferred for use in other activities. However, as stated in this question, the process of transferring energy during respiration occurs in a series of steps in order to prevent too much heat from being released at once.

The process whereby the living organism maintains an appropriate internal temperature is called HOMEOSTASIS, which is beneficial and key to an organism's survival because because enzymes need a proper range of temperatures to catalyze vital reactions. Enzymes are proteinous catalysts that gets denatured by certain factors such as high temperature, pH.
