Paraphin [41]3 years ago

An igneous rock can be formed from cooled magma. The igneous rock can become sedimentary if it is broken down by wind or water. The sedimentary rock can become metamorphic if it becomes buried in the earth, where pressure and heat would turn it into a metamorphic rock. The metamorphic rock can then become an igneous rock by melting underground and turning into magma, flowing out of a volcano, and cooling.

What is homeostasis? How do cells use both diffusion and osmosis to help maintain homeostasis?
arlik [135]

Answer:

Osmosis is the process cells use to move water molecules in and out of the cell through the cell membrane. When cells are put in different environments they will try to maintain an equilibrium with the water concentration outside the cell. Through osmosis the cell will lose or gain water molecules to become equal to the concentration in their environment.

In ____, several sets of alleles control the phenotype and each dominant allele present codes for a product which has a quantita
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Polygenic inheritance

Explanation:

Polygenic inheritance occurs when a genetic trait is regulated by more than one genes. All the alleles of these genes together determine the phenotype of the organism for the polygenic trait. Here, the phenotype is regulated by the total number of dominant alleles for all the genes that regulate a polygene trait.

For example, human skin color is a polygenic trait. The final phenotype depends on the total number of dominant alleles of all the genes that regulate the skin color in human.

The diagram below shows a food web in a woodland.
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is A.  X, because organism X has the same role as the grasshopper</em>

Explanation:

In a food chain or a food web, a primary producer can be described as an organism which feeds on producers. The producers, in this case, are the corn stalks. Grasshoppers are primary consumers in this food web because they feed on the corn stalks. X is also a primary producer, just like grasshopper, because it feeds on the corn stalks which are the producers. Hence, option A is correct.

What role do enzymes play in chemical reactions?
Naily [24]

Answer:

Enzymes allow many chemical reactions to occur within the homeostasis constraints of a living system. Enzymes function as organic catalysts. A catalyst is a chemical involved in, but not changed by, a chemical reaction. Many enzymes function by lowering the activation energy of reactions.

Explanation:

I believe this is correct, if not let me know and I will fix it. I'm sorry in advance if it is incorrect.
