During glacial maxima, Australia, new guinea, and Tasmania were a single land mass called Sahul.

  • The single Pleistocene continent known as Sahul united Australia with New Guinea and Tasmania. Rising sea levels gave rise to the distinct landmasses that we can now recognize, even though the sea level at the time was up to 150 meters (490 feet) lower than it is now.
  • Australia, New Guinea, Tasmania, and Seram were all parts of the ancient continent Sahul.
  • Since the Last Glacial Maximum, sea levels have risen. Around 18,000 years ago, Sahul began to be partially submerged. Sea levels kept rising until roughly 5000 BCE.
  • After leaving Africa, early human migrations began in Sahul and Sunda. According to recent study, hundreds of individuals traveled in groups on bamboo rafts and eventually settled on Sahul.

Give the two ways nitrogen can be fixated so plants can use it to grow.
Maurinko [17]

\huge\mathfrak\red {Answer:}

<h2>Fixation</h2>

Nitrogen in its gaseous form (N2) can’t be used by most living things. It has to be converted or ‘fixed’ to a more usable form through a process called fixation. There are three ways nitrogen can be fixed to be useful for living things:

<h3>Biologically: </h3>

Nitrogen gas (N2) diffuses into the soil from the atmosphere, and species of bacteria convert this nitrogen to ammonium ions (NH4+), which can be used by plants. Legumes (such as clover and lupins) are often grown by farmers because they have nodules on their roots that contain nitrogen-fixing bacteria.

<h3>Through lightning: </h3>

Lightning converts atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia and nitrate (NO3) that enter soil with rainfall.

In order for high force crossbridges to form in contracting skeletal muscle, calcium must a. bind to calmodulin to phosphorylate
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

e. bind to troponin which moves the tropomyosin.

Explanation:

Troponin (Tn) is a protein complex composed of three different proteins: troponin C (TnC), troponin I (TnI), and troponin T (TnT). This complex is found both in skeletal muscles and cardiac muscles, where TnC attaches calcium ions through four and three calcium ion-binding sites, respectively. When a muscle is relaxed, Tn attaches to tropomyosin to prevent muscle contraction. During muscle contraction, calcium channels open and cytosolic calcium ions bind to TnC, thereby Tn changes its conformation and moves the tropomyosin. This process relieves the inhibition of the interaction between actin and myosin filaments, which makes muscle contraction possible.

Which planet appears to be rotating on its side
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Uranus

Explanation:

A new study finds that the same impact that knocked Uranus sideways may have also created the planet's moons. ... However, Uranus is an oddball in that its axis of spin is tilted by a whopping 98 degrees (relative to the plane of the solar system), meaning it essentially spins on its side.
