The last one, wind blowing for a long time wont cause much wind, but if the wind is short and choppy, it will cause the waves to be choppy.
Answer: C). Extraction
Explanation:
Minerals are the inorganic susbtances obtain from the under surface of the earth crust. They are collectively found in the geosphere of earth.
The mineral formation is a long geomorphic process it does not involve any biological activity. After mineral formation mineral extraction is the next step in the resource cycle.
The extraction process involves mining techniques.
Answer:
It can be hypothesized that fungal pathogen is responsible for decreased yield.
Explanation:
As the extensive heavy rain changed the climate of that area the soybean plant was effected by pathogenic fungus grown in the field. As we know that fungi makes spores that can withstand harsh environment. Humid and moist environment is favorable for fungi growth. So when spores find a suitable environment they grow rapidly. In the given example, the fungi was pathogenic that produced toxic compounds and effected the growth of soybean plant by damaging its root system and water supply to plant.
Answer:
This definition suits that of "HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOMES"
Explanation:
Homologous chromosomes are similar pairs of chromosomes i.e. in length, gene positioning and centromere location (one from each parent) but not identical. Homologous chromosomes are not identical in the sense that, alleles on each pair may be different, resulting in genetic variation of the offspring.
Using humans as a case study, a karyotype (pictorial display of chromosomal arrangement) shows the complete set of chromosomes, which has two complete set (diploid). Each human cell contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, with each pair contributed by each parent i.e. 46 chromosomes in total. Every chromosome pair represents a set of homologous chromosome.
