The answer is D) desertification and deforestation

To know the answer you can rule out the non-possibilities. A is not correct because farmers use them all the time. B is not correct because water and pesticides can flow downstream and carry and deposit sediment. C is not correct because farmers can flood their own farms. When they plant things and a food comes, all of those plants will die or their roots will detach which lowers the food that can be sold. D is correct because farmers don't farm in the desert or the forest, so it would not be an impact of farming.

A DNA sample contains 30% cytosine. What percentage of the sample would be thymine?
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

30% Thymine

Explanation:

If 30% of Adenine is present, it would be reasonable to assume that 30% of Thymine will be present, as the ratio between the two complementary nitrogenous bases will be roughly equal.

Therefore, that leaves us with 40% between Cytosine and Guanine. Since the ratio between them would be equal, it gives us 20% of Cytosine and 20% of Guanine.

<u>Therefore:</u>

30% of A + 30% of T + 20% of C + 20% of G = 100% DNA

In photosynthesis, the electron that travels through the electron transport chain in the thylakoid membrane comes from____1____
Step2247 [10]
Answers:
1) Water
2) NADH

--------

1) Water donates the initial electron in photosynthesis. The process of photolysis splits the water into H+ and O2 (oxygen, a byproduct of photosynthesis), and releases electrons which are taken up by photosystem II.

2) The electron transport chain is in the last step of cellular respiration, oxidative phosphorylation. NADH donates the electrons, which are used to pump H+ against the gradient into the intermembrane space of the mitrochondria. These H+ flow back across the membrane through ATP synthase to generate ATP.
