Tom needs to load a tire into a moving truck using an inclined plane. He has two boards—one that is 6 feet long and another that is 12 feet long. Tom wants to use the board that will allow him to push the tire into the truck with less effort force. Which of the following pictures shows the board that he should use?

the solute can move "downhill," from regions of higher to lower concentration, relying on the specificity of the protein carrier to pass through the membrane. this process is called passive transport or facilitated diffusion, and does not require energy.

the cost of mining is extremely low compared to the money earned from mining, creating income to improve the environment.

the right is separation by density .

take the blood which is a good example of a heterogeneous mixture.

blood is a vital liquid in our body, which transports oxygen from the air to our lungs so we can breathe. it is also used to eject wastes, such as carbon dioxide, to bring cells and molecules of the immune system to the tissues, and to spread hormones throughout the body. it corresponds to plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and hemoglobins combined.

in medical tests centrifugal force is used to separate the different components of the blood.

in general, the centrifugation will allow to separate and analyze the different components of the blood, to know if the rate of white blood cells in the blood of a patient, for example, is normal, and therefore to know if his system immune is integrity.

under the action of centrifugal force, the solid components in the blood are drawn to the bottom of the tube in which the blood is contained. the centrifugal force then acts as an accelerated settling. it separates plasma from red blood cells and white blood cells.
