Concentrated animal feeding operations that raise hundreds of animals in a single location often use manure lagoons to dispose o

f the manure. manure lagoons are ponds lined with rubber to prevent the manure from leaking into groundwater or nearby waterways. one pig produces 30 liters of manure each day, and the average feedlot holds 900 pigs. calculate the amount of manure produced by the feedlot after 30 days to determine the minimum capacity needed for a manure lagoon. a faulty manure pond leaks into a nearby lake. describe one effect this leak would have on the organisms living in the lake.

If there is a leakage of the manure pond into the near by river, the growth the nitrates and phosphates in the leak causes an overgrowth of algae leading to eutrophication.

<h3>What is a manure?</h3>

A manure is that which is used to improve the fertility of the soil. It is composed of the nutrients that are required by the soil. We know that each pig produces 30 liters of manure each day, and the average feedlot holds 900 pigs. Hence, each day, 30 * 900 = 27000 litres of manure is produced.

Within a period of 30 days, a total of 27000 litres of manure * 30 = 810,000 litres of manure is produced. If there is a leakage of the manure pond into the near by river, the growth the nitrates and phosphates in the leak causes an overgrowth of algae leading to eutrophication.

After performing a gram stain of a mixed culture of gram positive and gram negative cells, you shout: "oops, i forgot the iodine
zalisa [80]

Gram's staining is a differential staining technique that employs a primary stain like crystal violet and a counter stain like safranin along with the decolourizing agent alcohol and a mordant called the Gram's iodine.

Iodine is a mordant added after the primary stain. It fixes the stain by combining with it to enchance the staining ability. This forms an insoluble crystal violet iodine complex appearing purple under the microscope. These microorganisms are classified as Gram positive.

If addition of iodine is skipped, crystal violet is not fixed on the slide and the insoluble complex is not formed. The cells are decolourized by alcohol and are stained by the counter stain safranin making the Gram positive cells wrongly indentified as Gram negative due to its pink colouration. Thus, the slide will show all the cells as pink coloured Gram negative cells.

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

u have it correct

Explanation:

it is D bc The organism in a stage between zygote to fetus is called an embryo* and the cells are called embryonic stem cells. At this point embryonic stem cells have the ability to become a cell for any part of the body (nerve, muscle, blood, etc.). This ability to become any type of cell in the body is called pluripotent.

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

d. 3/8

Explanation:

Black coat color (B) is dominant over red coat color (b) and solid color (S) is dominant over spotted color (b).

BbSs was crossed with Bbss

BbSs   x   Bbss

Offspring:

<em>2 BBSs black, solid</em>

<em>2 BBss black, spotted</em>

<em>4 BbSs black solid</em>

<em>4 Bbss black, spotted</em>

<em>2 bbSs red, solid</em>

<em>2 bbss red spotted</em>

Total black solid = 6

Hence, the chance that black solid individual would be produced = 6/16 = 3/8.

The correct option is d.

<em>See the attached for the Punnet's square analysis.</em>
