Viruses and bacteria are both microscopic and can both cause disease. Viruses differ from bacteria in that all viruses are obligate parasites, which means they cannot live or survive independently, on their own, but have to live inside cells.

Viruses do not have organelles essential to life such as animal and plant cell have. A virus has no nucleus, no mitochondria, no Golgi apparatus, no endoplasmic reticulum and no ribosomes, therefore it cannot perform propagate itself.

Viruses invade cells and hijack the cell machinery to manufacture their own virus components. Once assembled together, these parts form new viruses which in cases causes the cell to die.

Well, wind and solar energy are good places to look at. The highest wind speed recorded in Antartica was roughly 199 mph, so they would definitely gain a large amount of energy from the wind. A smaller turbine can handle severe weather conditions, so setting some up along the most wind ridden places would be good. Solar energy would also be the best option since their days are longer than their nights over there. There can be days at a time where the sun doesn't rise at all, and then there are some where there is sunlight for a full 24 hours. So, it really depends on your preference, and the cons and pros of the energy type.
For wind: Set up a series of turbines along the areas that have the most wind. Turbines can withstand large storms. There is usually some kind of wind blowing.
For solar: Set up some solar panels where they would be able to get the most amount of sunlight. There are 24 hour long days of sunlight, but there are also some days where there is no sunlight at all.

Hope this helps you a bit.

In cats, curled ears result from an allele, Cu, that is dominant over an allele cu, for normal ears. Black color results from an

just olya [345]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cross : ggCuCu X GGcucu --------Parents

F1 progeny : GgCucu

Two of the F1 cats mate :

Cross : GgCucu X GgCucu

Gametes :

Gg X Gg = GG, Gg, Gg, gg

Cucu X Cucu = CuCu, Cucu, Cucu, cucu

1/4 GG X 1/4 CuCu = 1/16 GGCuCu (black - curled ears)

1/4 GG X 2/4 Cucu = 2/16 GGCucu (black - curled ears)

1/4 GG X 1/4 cucu = 1/16 GGcucu (black - normal ears)

2/4 Gg X 1/4 CuCu = 2/16 GgCuCu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 GgCucu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 1/4 cucu = 2/16 Ggcucu (black - normal ears)

1/4 gg X 1/4 CuCu = 1/16 ggCuCu (gray - curled ears)

1/4 gg X 2/4 Cucu = 2/16 ggCucu (gray - curled ears)

1/4 gg X 1/4 cucu = 1/16 ggcucu (gray - normal ears)

Answer : (i). 9/16 black cats, curled ears; 3/16 black cats, normal ears; 3/16 gray cats, curled ears; and 1/16 gray cats, normal ears.

An F1 cat mates with a stray cat that is gray and possesses normal ears :

Cross : GgCucu X ggcucu

Gametes :

Gg X gg = Gg, Gg, gg, gg

Cucu X cucu = Cucu, Cucu, cucu, cucu

2/4 Gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 GgCucu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 2/4 cucu = 4/16 Ggcucu (black - normal ears)

2/4 gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 ggCucu (gray - curled ears)

2/4 gg X 2/4 cucu = 4/16 ggcucu (gray - normal ears)

Answer : (i). 1/4 black cats, curled ears; 1/4 black cats, normal ears; 1/4 gray cats, curled ears; 1/4 gray cats, normal ears.

What are check points and why are they important in the cell cycle

pentagon [3]

Hmm this is a rough explanations but because to be sure cells are made properly and not misfunctioning or going Rouge.

Cancer cells is an example of this, a cell goes rouge and starts doing it's function on it's own but outside of it's brother cells function slightly different turning into a growth or etc. The body thinks it is normal during the check body it's composed of the dna that passes this check.

viruses and other things don't pass this check and things like white blood cella come shut it down.

that's why doctors poison the area they find the cancer. to send white blood cells there to shut the area down not passing the check.

Which of the following is an indicator of a good water quality.

Ph in ground water ranges from 6.5 to 8.5 any higher would be low-quality so the answer would most clearly be Low levels of fecal coliform.
