Explanation

• Argon (Ar) is a noble gas that is not typically associated with acid rain.

Acid rain is caused by the presence of pollutants in the air, such as:

• Sulfur dioxide (SO2)
• Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
• Oxygen (O2) plays a role in the formation of acid rain, as it reacts with SO2 and NOx to form acidic compounds.

• Cytophase is not a stage of mitosis.

The stages of mitosis are:

1. Prophase
2. Metaphase
3. Anaphase
4. Telophase

Explanation

To find the harmonic that is two octaves higher in pitch than the fundamental, we need to consider the frequency multiplication.

One octave higher = 2 × fundamental frequency

Two octaves higher = 2 × 2 × fundamental frequency = 4 × fundamental frequency

The fourth harmonic has a frequency four times the fundamental frequency, which corresponds to two octaves higher.

A reflecting telescope uses two mirrors:

1. The primary mirror (which collects and focuses light).
2. The secondary mirror (which directs the focused light to the eyepiece), to form an image of distant objects.

Respiration involves two main processes:

1. Mechanical Process (Ventilation):

• Breathing in (inhalation)
• Breathing out (exhalation)
• Movement of air in and out of the lungs

2. Biochemical Process (Respiratory Exchange):

• Exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the lungs and blood
• Transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide through the bloodstream
• Cellular respiration (cellular metabolism)
