It has been estimated that ‘slash and burn’ agriculture is
used by up to 500 million people worldwide. The term describes the practice of
cutting and/or burning of natural vegetation for conversion into agricultural
fields. Besides the disastrous implications for forest ecosystems, the practice
can impact the atmosphere in two main ways if burning is implemented. Firstly
by causing air pollution from the smoke, and secondly by increasing carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere, which is a greenhouse gas and a driver of climate
change. Living trees also remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during
photosynthesis, and the process of ‘slash and burn’ effectively removes their
carbon capturing contributions to ameliorating climate change.
Answer:
C) provides the instructions for making proteins
Explanation:
<span>Messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules are long strands of RNA nucleotides that directribosomes to make proteins. They travel from the nucleus to the ribosome. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) molecules make up part of the ribosomes of the cell in the cytoplasm. Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules transport amino acids to the ribosomes.</span>
The correct answer is they break down globules of fat into tiny droplets.
Glad i could help(:
Answer:
The two major differences lies in the function and support system.
Explanation:
The two major differences between an endocrine and an exocrine system are as follows –
a) An endocrine system releases its produce (hormones) into the connective tissue i.e blood while the exocrine system releases hormones directly into the ducts so that it could reach the targeted tissue directly.
For example – the Adrenal gland is an endocrine gland that secretes adrenaline directly into the blood. The salivary gland is an exocrine gland that releases its produce into the collecting duct leading to mouth. However, Pancreas is both endocrine and exocrine gland.
b) The endocrine system cannot work alone therefore it works in coordination with the nervous system to control actions and balance the body. However, the exocrine system works independently
