Answer:

-degrades vegetation

-increases soil erosion

-creates competition for water

Explanation:

There are many environmental impacts caused by mining, economic and industrial activity that consists in the research, exploration, extraction and processing of ores present in underground deposits. The same is true of mining for materials used in smart devices. This human activity destroys nature and creates very damaging ecological imbalances that diminishes the quality of life not only for humans but for all living beings.

Mining causes pollution of water resources by decreasing the amount of drinking water and increasing competition for water in some places. In addition, it causes soil degradation through erosion and causes loss of diversity by degrading vegetation and animal life.

Answer:

The correct option is 3. "At pH 6.5 the enyzme is 50% active"

Explanation:

For the titratable group to be protonated and cause the enzyme to be in the active state, it needs to have gained a hydrogen cation (H+). In order for that to happen, there must be enough hydrogen cations in the environment of the enzyme, and hence, an acidic pH is required in this case.

When we use water, we often use too much. We waste it. When washing cars, showering, brushing our teeth etc. Because of wastefulness, there are places that don't have the luxury of being able to wash their car well, and can't water their lawns for more than a few minutes a day.

I hope I was able to help. Best of luck.

hram777 [196]

Answer:

<em>The probability of forming a "Y" gamete is 50%. The probability of forming a "y" gamete is 50%.</em>

Explanation:

Mendel was an Austrian monk whose findings led to make the foundation of genetics. Hence, Mendel is known as the father of genetics. He formulated two laws based on the researches he made:

  • Law of segregation
  • Law of independent assortment

According to the law of segregation, alleles segregate independently at the time of gamete formation. There is an equal chance for a gamete to carry the dominant or the recessive allele.

Hence, the probability of a gamete carrying a 'Y' or a 'y" allele will be 50% each.
