Silicon and oxygen as the compound name is silicon dioxide
Maksim231197 [3]3 years ago

Answer:

Silicon and oxygen

Explanation:

The chemical formula for silicon dioxide is SiO2. Hence, silicon dioxide has one atom of silicon (Si) and two atoms of oxygen (O). Analysis of sand rich in silicon dioxide would have two elements namely, "silicon (Si) and oxygen (O)".

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

1)Pfr/Pr

2) Pr

3)far-red

Explanation:

The leaves at the top of a tree’s canopy are exposed to direct sunlight during the day, and their phytochromes will occur in a high *Pfr/Pr* ratio. Meanwhile, the leaves of the same tree at the bottom of the canopy are highly shaded during the day and will likely have a higher proportion of the * ( PHYTOCHROME )Pr *;form of phytochrome present due to exposure to a higher proportion of *FAR RED * light.

Plants make use of the phytochrome system to it's adjust growth based on the seasons. Through phytochrome plants is able to respond to the timing and duration of dark and light periods. At dawn, all the phytochrome molecules present in the leaved are converted to the active Pfr form until sunset this is because the sun is unfiltered, and unfiltered sunlight has high percentage of red light, but lower far-red light, with the help of phytochrome system , the plants is able to compare the length of dark periods over several days.

The Vmax of the isoform of glycogen phosphorylase expressed in muscles is significantly larger than the isoform of the enzyme ex
julsineya [31]

Answer and Explanation: In enzyme kinetics, one constant describing enzyme activity is <em>Maximal Velocity</em> (Vmax). It indicates how fast an enzyme can catalyze the reaction. It is dependent on substrate concentration.

As the muscle is an organ which needs a great amount of energy, the enzyme glycogen phosphorilase is very active on the organ, compared to the liver, where glicose is stored. So, the Vmax of glycogen phosphorylase expressed in muscle is faster than when expressed in the liver, means the enzyme in muscle has a bigger concentration of substrate and therefore will reach Vmax faster, i.e. will be significantly larger.

In cod fishing, older and larger fish are more likely to be retained in nets than younger and smaller fish. Despite the removal
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

D. Selection has led to decreases in the size of fish at the age of reproductive maturity.

Explanation:

The larger body size of the fishes is not an adaptive trait as it reduces the survival chances of these fishes. The process of natural selection tends to increase the frequency of the traits that increase the survival fitness of the organisms. Here, the fishes with smaller body size at the reproductive age have greater chances of survival and would reproduce more to leave more progeny. Over the generations, the selection pressure would increase the proportion of fishes that are smaller during reproductive age.

Why is the archaea domain closer to eukarya than bacteria?
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Archaea domain is closer to eukarya than bacteria because genetically they are more similar to Eukarya than Bacteria.

Explanation:

Options for this question are:

  • <em>They both lack a nucleus and contain  cytoplasm. </em>
  • <em>The unique functional adaptations of Archaea are more similar to Eukarya adaptations.  </em>
  • <em> They both evolved in the same geological time period. </em>
  • <em> </em><em>Genetically, the Archaea are more similar to Eukarya than Bacteria. </em>
  • <em> They both have membrane-bound organelles. </em>
  • <em> Archaea is not closer to Eukarya because it contains prokaryotic cells just like Bacteria.</em>

Archaea are unicellular prokaryotic organisms, which share many characteristics with bacteria, however, the existence of metabolic functions and genes similar to eukaryotic organisms suggest that there is a genetic link between the two. Even the enzymes responsible for genetic processing, such as transcriptases and translation enzymes, are similar to those in eukaryotic cells.

The theory that establishes the relationship between Archaea and Eukaryotic suggests the existence of a common ancestor, whose later evolution allowed an Archaea to join a protobacteria to form a eukaryotic cell, and hence their genetic relationship.
