Think of an animal that eats other animals.Why would soil be important to this animal

Biology
1 answer:
miskamm [114]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Food chain is the process or method that connects plants and animals to the ecosystem. In this process, herbivorous animals feed on plant for their nutrition and the carnivorous animals feed on the herbivores as their source of food.

Soil plays a key role in this process as it contains many molecules like phosphorous, nitrogen etc. which is taken up by the plants through roots and hence consumed by the animals. This is how energy ascends from one trophic level to another although there is a decrease in each increasing trophic level.

which example of a missense mutation in a protein-encoding gene would most likely be a neutral mutation?
KATRIN_1 [288]

An example of a missense mutation in a protein-encoding gene would most likely be a neutral mutation is option B: replacement of a polar amino acid with another polar amino acid at the protein's surface.

A frequent and well-known example of a missense mutation is the blood condition sickle-cell anemia. Missense mutations exist in the DNA at a single location in sickle-cell anemia patients. A different amino acid is required in this missense mutation, which also alters the overall structure of the protein. Similarly, replacement of a polar amino acid by another polar Ami no acid at the protein's surface is a missense mutation causing change in a single site.

A neutral mutation is one whose fixation is unrelated to natural selection. Therefore, the independence of a mutation's fixation from natural selection can be used to define the selective neutrality of a mutation.

b) Replacement of a polar amino acid with another polar amino acid at the protein's surface

c) Replacement of a polar amino acid with another polar amino acid in the protein's interior

d) Replacement of a polar amino acid with a nonpolar amino acid in the protein's interior

Determine whether each example represents continental drift or sea floor spreading.
laila [671]

Answer:

Sea floor spreading-> <u><em>Oceanic ridge and Magma pushing two plates apart</em></u>

Continental drift-> <u><em>Concept of pangaea and Oceanic plates sliding under continental crust</em></u>

Explanation:

Due to the divergent plate movement, the magma come out to the surface, forming the mid oceanic ridge and this separation of plates on the sea floor is known as the sea floor spreading. The magma here pushes the two plates to move apart because of the convection current that generates in the mantle. One example of mid oceanic ridge is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.

  Continental drift refers to the slow and gradual movement of the lithospheric plates over the viscous asthenosphere layer. This motion of continents takes place because of the plate tectonic movement. Due to this plate motion, the denser plate gets subducts beneath the less denser plates. For example, the oceanic crust when collides with a continental crust, it gets subducted because of its higher density. The great supercontinent "pangaea" also formed and separated due to this plate motion.

What does electronegativity means
Anna [14]
In Science, a electron in an atom is always negative. The more electrons you have, the more negative a atom is. The more protons (Positives) you have, the more positive a atom is. To balance an atom out, have the same amount of Electrons and Protons.
