What is weathering and erosion

Biology
2 answers:
Liula [17]4 years ago
7 0

Weathering is when rocks, soil, or other minerals are broken down.

Erosion is the process through which weathered rock is moved from one place to another. Erosion can dissolve rock by weakening the rock or by turning it into other fragments that are very small.

Once the rock has been weakened and broken up by weathering it is ready for erosion. Erosion happens when rocks and sediments are picked up and moved to another place by ice, water, wind or gravity. Mechanical weathering physically breaks up rock. One example is called frost action or frost shattering.

During aerobic respiration, electrons travel downhill in which sequence?
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is a slow process which produces energy from the oxidation of food components which could be glucose, fatty acids and proteins.

The process proceeds in four steps: glycolysis, link reaction, Krebs cycle and electron transport chain.

The energy molecules are produced when a high energy electron gets reduced and the released energy is stored in the form of energy molecules which could be ATP or energy equivalents like NADH and FADH₂.

These reducing equivalents donate its electrons during electron transport chain where the electrons flow to the last electron acceptor called oxygen.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Let p = purple flowers and p = white, and t = tall plants and t = dwarf. if the uppercase letters represent the dominant alleles
sesenic [268]

If the uppercase letters represent the dominant alleles, purple flowers and tall are the phenotype of a plant with the genotype Pptt.

A gene can exist in different forms across organisms. These different forms are known as alleles.

The subsequent combination of alleles that an individual possesses for a specific gene is their genotype.  

Examples of  genotype include:

  • Hair colour
  • Height
  • Shoe size
  • Eye colour

The sum of an organism’s observable characteristics is their phenotype. A key difference between phenotype and genotype is that, whilst genotype is inherited from an organism’s parents, the phenotype is not.

Whilst a phenotype is influenced the genotype, genotype does not equal phenotype. The phenotype is influenced by the genotype and factors including:

  • Epigenetic modifications
  • Environmental and lifestyle factors

Observing the phenotype is simple – we take a look at an organism’s outward features and characteristics, and form conclusions about them. Observing the genotype, however, is a little more complex.

Genotyping is the process by which differences in the genotype of an individual are analyzed using biological assays. The data obtained can then be compared against either a second individual’s sequence, or a database of sequences.

PLEASE HELP I have no clue what to do with that. Will Mark Brainliest.<br><br> Thank You. (:

Answer:

Determine whether the trait is dominant or recessive. If the trait is dominant, one of the parents must have the trait. Dominant traits will not skip a generation. If the trait is recessive, neither parent is required to have the trait since they can be heterozygous.
