Models are important in science. Some models are verbel models, which are full elaborate descriptions that can help someone visualize the concept. You have seen various visuals of earths layers. Create a verbal model of earths interior. In your model, describe the following: The main layers of earths interior and the inderecct evidence that helped us determine the layers. The flow of matter in the mantle and in the core and the effects of that flow. The source of thermal energy and how energy flows through the layers.

Apart of the periodic table is shown. a portion of the sixteenth and seventeenth columns of the periodic table is shown. column 16 reads eight oxygen, 16 sulfur, and 34 selenium. column 17 reads nine flourine, 17 chlorine, and 35 bromine. which of the following elements is less reactive than the others? bromine (br) oxygen (o) selenium (se) sulfur (s)

Asolution of an enzyme and a substrate was placed in a water bath and the temperature of the reaction was raised gradually. the graph shown was plotted at the end of the experiment. what can be concluded from the graph? a) temperature has no effect on the activity of the enzyme. b) the effect of temperature on the enzyme is unpredictable. c) the enzyme shows increased activity up to a certain temperature. d) the activity of the enzyme is inversely proportional to the temperature.

The kidney filters potentially toxic substances in the blood, and thus “clears” the blood of those substances. this clearance function is dependent upon and proportional to the diffusion gradient of the substance across filtering capillaries, i.e. if the concentration of the substance is doubled, twice as much will be cleared from each ml of blood that is filtered. suppose that the body produces a constant amount of a substance x per unit of time. the kidneys eliminate substance x at a rate directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and the volume of blood cleared each minute (c): elimination = c × [x], where [x] is the steady-state concentration of substance x. imagine an individual with an initial concentration of x equal to [x]0 who develops kidney disease. her baseline clearance c0 drops to one half of the original (½c0). what is the new steady state concentration of x? (for simplicity, assume that substance x is 100% filtered by the kidney).
