The nitrogen cycle is most directly dependent upon-

Biology
1 answer:
vovangra [49]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B) Nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning

Explanation:

Nitrogen cycle is the natural process in which atmospheric nitrogen is converted into nitrite and nitrate with the help of bacteria.

Nitrogen cycle is directly dependent on nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning.

As bacteria are responsible for most of the chemical conversion in the nitrogen cycle such as nitrogen fixation (first step) is done by soil bacteria (Cyanobacteria) that form ammonia, which is toxic to plants; nitrification in which ammonia is converted into nitrites and nitrates with the help of Nitrobacter and denitrification bacteria involve Pseudomonas, and Achromobacter which convert nitrite and nitrate into nitrogen.

The lightning breaks nitrogen molecules and allow  it to combine with oxygen in atmosphere which further dissolve in rain and form nitrates.

Hence, the nitrogen cycle is most directly dependent upon nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning and the correct option is B.

How does the four principles of natural selection work together to respond to a change in the environment ?
galben [10]
The four principles of natural selection are variation (organisms within a population have their own individual differences in their appearance, such as, markings and color), inheritance (traits passed down to the offspring), high rate of population growth (which leads to their local resources to be more of a challenge to find), and differential survival/ reproduction (organisms in the population with stronger traits are more likely to survive and reproduce, aka survival of the fittest). These four principles work together to respond to chance in the environment by making sure the strongest survive and over time that species will adapt to their environment because the organisms with the better suited traits will pass their traits to its offspring.

I hope that made sense, lol.

Margaret is a marathon runner, and she knows that with her daily training schedule she needs to eat more protein than an average
Doss [256]

Answer:

63, grams

103, grams

Explanation:

According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics endurance athletes, like Margaret needs about 0.55 to 0.9 grams of protein per pound while Strength-athletes that are trying to build muscle mass need more than 0.9 grams of protein per pound.

Since Margret is an Endurance athletic according to the question she will be needing:

115 lb x 0,55 =63,25 grams

115 lb x 0,9 =103,5 grams

Therefore Margaret should consume between 63 and 103 grams of protein daily.
