The correct answer is option b.

One way by which wetland controls flood is by absorbing water from rivers. Wetland absorbs water and and store it. Afterwards it releases slowly.It behaves like a sponge. It also protects nearby houses flooding and vegetation too.It reduces the water flow and settles down the sediments and pollutants also.

36. how can you increase surface area but not volume of an object? biology
solong [7]
Folds, wrinkles, etc!
by folding the membrane of an organelle, surface area is optimized while volume remains the same. that is why mitochondria looks folded on the inside when you see pictures of it. the higher the surface area to volume ratio, the more efficient the organelle.

Describe the internal diameter of the aorta.​
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

In sonographic measurements performed in the transverse view, the diameter of aorta (Ao) constituted 15.7 mm, the longer dimension of the inferior vena cava (IVC1) equaled 28.4 mm and the shorter one (IVC2) – 15.5 mm. In the longitudinal view, Ao equaled 15.3 mm and IVC – 18.8 mm (tab.

2. Suppose that you and 19 of your classmates (giving a final population of 10 males and 10 females) are on a cruise, and your s
Trava [24]

Answer:

0.25%

Explanation:

20 people start the new population. So there are 20 genes or 40 alleles for the recessive disorder phenylketonuria. 2 out of 40 alleles are recessive for the condition hence frequency of the allele = 2/40 = 0.05

Frequency of the allele does not change when the population increases so it is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. According to it, if q is the frequency of recessive allele, q² = frequency of the recessive condition

Here, q = 0.05 So,

q² = (0.05)² = 0.0025

In percentage, it is 100 * 0.0025 = 0.25%

Hence, incidence of phenylketonuria in the new population is 0.25%

It is a small RNA molecules that interfere with gene expression.
Semmy [17]

Answer:

miRNA ( micro RNA )

Explanation:

The small RNA molecule that interfere with gene expression are miRNA. The miRNA is micro RNA that are non-coding molecules of RNA. These small RNA regulate gene expression after transcription (post transcription).

The miRNA binds to 3' UTR region (untranslated region ) and halt the process of protein production and thereby silencing mRNA.

PRE-LAB QUESTIONS 1. What is the difference between chemically defined and chemically complex media? Give either a clinical or e
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

Explanation a chemical define media is a media that do not contain any animal derived source as a component. It is a media whose chemical component are known. It is said to be the purest form of media for culture.

Complex Chemical media is a media whose component are not known. It includes both animals,yeast, plant source whose component are not known this Mixture makes it complex.

Example of complex media is Human Endothelial-SFM (Life Technologies), Endothelial Basal Media, EndoGRO-LS Complete

Example of chemically defined media enhancing or inhibitory effects of GSLs and sphingolipids on tyrosine kinases associated with growth factor receptors.
