Question:How does soil form on an island that is made of cooled rock from a volcanic eruption?

Soil forms when parts of the lava cool into very small rocks and dust.

Soil forms from the constant movement of species in and out of the community.

Soil forms when lichens and mosses grow, break down rocks, and die.

Soil forms when large trees take over the community from small bushes.

Answer: the answer is C: Soil forms when lichens and mosses grow, break down rocks, and die.

Hey, sorry about the person who gave you a virus... pretty sure most people who leave links are doing similar things unfortunately. The answer is Archaebacteria I’m pretty sure. Eubacteria are found everywhere, Fungi are mushrooms, protists exist all over underwater areas. Haven’t researched it in a while but hope this answer helps :)

otez555 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) The relationship that exists between the teens and the organism (Giardia) is Parasitism. Because in such symbiotic relationship one species (the parasite-Giardia) benefits while the other species (the host- the teens) is harmed.

2) Plants remove Carbon dioxide (a major green house gas) from atmosphere during photosynthesis. But, if plants are also being removed with increase in use of fossil fuels, the CO2 that escapes the fossil fuels will remain in the atmosphere for longer as there are not enough plants to "suck" them back into a stored form of Carbon. Carbon Dioxide increases green hourse effect thus green house effect will increase and earth's temperature might rise due to this.

3) Without decomposers we would not be able to continue the carbon cycle because we could not release the stored carbon from plants and animals into the atmosphere. Decomposers break down dead material from organism and release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, where it's available to plants for photosynthesis. Without them, we could not recycle nutrients or carbons in our ecosystem and thus, they are critical for the carbon cycle.

The phenotypic variation in the trait "coat color" in mice is passed from a parent to their offspring via _______________. Selec

Rashid [163]

Answer:

d. differences in DNA sequences in different parents

Explanation:

The picture below shows a Mainland mouse and a Beach mouse with differences in DNA sequences in different parents.

Phenotype can be defined in these light;

– as the appearance of an organism based on a multifactorial combination of genetic traits and environmental factors, especially used in pedigrees.

– as any observable characteristic of an organism, such as its morphological, developmental, biochemical or physiological properties, or its behavior.

Some of this physical traits are a mere result of the proteins produced.

Mice with this DNA sequence GCGTTGGAC have dark coats — Mainland mouse

Mice with this DNA sequence ACGTTGGAC have light coats — Beach mouse

• Genetic information flows from DNA to RNA to proteins.

Arg, Asn, Leu — Mainland mouse

Cys, Asn, Leu – Beach mouse

• Differences in genotype may cause differences in phenotype

The phenotypic variation in the trait "coat color" in mice is passed from a parent to their offspring via the differences in DNA sequences in different parents.

List all of the molecules in the process of translation

PolarNik [594]

Explanation:

Translation is catalyzed by a large enzyme called a ribosome, which contains proteins and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Translation also involves specific RNA molecules called transfer RNA (t-RNA) which can bind to three basepair codons on a messenger RNA (mRNA) and also carry the appropriate amino acid encoded by the codon.
