Deformable - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

What are the criteria of hydrostatic skeletons? - Fluid maintained at constant volume - container for fluid must be deformable - container for fluid is wrapped in muscle and connective tissue Any deformable, incompressible material maintained at constant volume can act as a hydrostatic skeleton What is the mechanical advantage for cylindrical hyrdostats As a cylinder of constant volume changes shape there is a non-linear relationship between its diameter length How to extend tentacles or arms...

Critical Care Transport Exam Questions and Answers All Correct Sickled cells - Answer-Red blood cells that are less deformable and do not pass through microcirculation as easily, cause an increase in blood viscosity, and are sequestered and destroyed by the liver and spleen Acute chest syndrome - Answer-Condition that accounts for 25% of premature deaths in patients with sickle cell disease; the leading cause of hospitalization and death of sickle cell patients; symptoms include fever, cou...

Strain - correct answer An alteration in the shape or volume of a soil related to stress. It is calculated as the ratio of the new shape compared to the original shape Effective Stress - correct answer The total amount of stress placed on a soil minus the pore-water pressure Normal Stress - correct answer The component of total stress that acts perpendicular to the plane. Shear stress - correct answer The component of total stress that acts parallel to any point in question. Dila...

What is the lithosphere? CORRECT ANSWER crust and upper mantle What is the asthenosphere? CORRECT ANSWER the upper layer of the earth's mantle, below the lithosphere deformable--like playdough Continental lithosphere CORRECT ANSWER -thick -old(4byo) -not dense -many types of rocks oceanic lithosphere CORRECT ANSWER lithosphere that is mainly comprised of basalt; it is more dense that is why it sits lower in the asthenosphere. -thin -young(200 myo) 3 types of plate boundaries...
