Answer:

The correct answer is - genes.

Explanation:

Mendel was the first to understand the heredity and inheritance that some specific factors are responsible for the inheritance which are present in the pairs and separated during gamete formation and each gamete one copy from it.

These factors are actually the genes that are the basic unit of the heredity and are the sequence of the nucleotide that encodes for the specific protein production.

Thus, the correct answer is - genes.

Your friend brings you rocks with a thick layer of oxidation weathering, and no other visible signs of weathering. this is a clu
Vsevolod [243]
<span>A moist environment because physical weathering processes such as oxidation take place most quickly in the presence of water. There are three types of weathering, physical, chemical, and biological. For the physical weathering, there are two main types. Freeze-thaw cycles and exfoliation. Obviously the freeze-thaw cycles require water and the exfoliation generally happens through thermal expansion and contraction which doesn't require water. But since neither of these mechanisms were observed, that doesn't indicate if the area was wet or dry. Biological weathering is caused by plants or animals breaking down rocks via chemical (acid) or mechanical (root growth) means. Life generally indicates the presence of water, but since this form of weathering wasn't observed, we still don't have enough data. Chemical weathering is caused by rain water reacting with the rocks to form new minerals and salts. There are several types such as acidic rainwater dissolving part of the rock, and oxidation. With this in mind, let's take a look at the available options. A moist environment because there is a greater density of oxygen in the atmosphere in the presence of water. * Yes, we need a moist environment, but the density of oxygen is fairly constant world wide regardless of how moist or dry the environment is. So this is a bad choice. A moist environment because physical weathering processes such as oxidation take place most quickly in the presence of water. * Water speeds up chemical weathering of all types. So this is the correct choice. A dry environment because the increased albedo of deserts encourages physical weathering processes such as oxidation. * Yes, the increased albedo of deserts does speed up spalling, but oxidation is a CHEMICAL weathering process, not a PHYSICAL one. So this is a bad choice. A dry environment because in the absence of water oxidation is the dominant weathering process. * Water speeds up oxidation quite a bit. And since the observed oxidation is thick, there's been quite a bit of weathering. So this is a bad choice.</span>

Vsevolod [243]
<span>When cells were first taken from Henrietta Lacks, she was suffering from cervix cancer. Henrietta Lacks was a woman whose cervix cancer cells were used as the source of the HeLa cell line nowadays used in medical research. During treatment for cervical cancer in 1951, the cells were taken without her knowledge. The cells were cultured by George Otto Gey who created the HeLa cell line.</span>
