A flood can wash away important abiotic factors such as soil and rocks that certain biotic factors need for survival.

Biology

Degger [83]2 years ago

Flooding is the term used to characterize the process that occurs when the waters of a river overflow due to rain and occupy the area next to the river, called the river plain. It can have natural or anthropogenic causes and affect vulnerable populations more often.

<h3>What is Biotic and Abiotic?</h3>

The biotic components are all the living things that live in a certain place, while the abiotic components are all the physical, chemical and geological factors of the environment such as water, light, soil, humidity, temperature, nutrients etc.

With this information, we can conclude that A flood can wash away important abiotic factors, such as soil and rocks, that certain biotic factors need to survive, thus flooding affects the ecology of affected regions.

1) How is DNA condensed to form a chromosome?
Bumek [7]

Answer:

1) DNA is wrapped around histone proteins to form chromatin

2) The genes are the functional units, the segments between them are used for regulation

3) The genetic code is the language used, gene expression is how the cell uses the information, the activity of the genes.

Explanation:

1) DNA forms a DNA/protein complex called chromatin. It does this by wrapping around histone proteins. These histone proteins are usually present in the form of a nucleosome, which is a unit containing 2 copies of 4 histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). The chromatin fibre at its most compact forms tightly coiled structures called chromosomes. These structures are only present during cell division. When the cell is in interphase (i.e. not dividing), the chromatin is not as tightly condensed, and instead the chromatin is more relaxed to allow the genes within to be expressed.

2) Genes are the functional units that the cell uses to make RNA and protein. The genes are first transcribed into RNA, which is processed and then translated into a polypeptide chain, which forms a complete protein that performs activities in the cell/tissue/organism. However, the whole genome does not form genes, there are regions that do not correspond to a gene. These regions are called "non-coding DNA" or sometimes even "junk DNA". However, that does not mean that these regions do not have important roles. The role of this DNA is usually in regulating the activity of the nearby genes. This DNA might contain important regulatory sequences such as promoters/enhancers/silencers that control how the gene is used by the cell, by for example, recruiting transcription factors or silencing proteins.

3) The genetic code is the language used by the cell. It explains how the cell can transcribe the information in the DNA, to RNA, process the RNA, and then translate the RNA into a polypeptide, and eventually a mature protein. In contrast, gene expression represents how the cell actually uses this information. Not all the genes are transcribed at the same time, instead, the activity of genes is carefully controlled to produce appropriate gene expression patterns, allowing the cell to properly perform its functions. Gene expression is hugely different between cells in an organism, for example the gene expression patterns of a muscle cell will  be hugely different to that of a blood cell.

What property do the following elements have in common? Sulfur, iodine, magnesium
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Same Phase at room temp

Explanation:

Here we have a metal and two nonmetals (sulfur and iodine).

They are all solid at room temperature. Metals form cations and are good conductors of electricity. They are not from the same family, therefore, they do not have the same number of valence electrons.

What does a lagoon look like?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

If you have been to Venice (Italy), you have seen lagoons. In fact, the world lagoon is derived from a latin word <em><u>laguna</u></em>.

Principally, a lagoon is shallow water body which has been separated from the main water body due to sandbars, barrier islands, coral reefs,etc. However, sometimes, they includes other terms too such as bays, estuaries, sounds, or even lakes. They are of two types, i.e. Coastal Lagoons and Atoll Lagoons. In the figure attached, you can see how a lagoon looks like.
