How did the Miller-Urey experiment impact the way scientists think about the origins of life?

Biology
1 answer:
Mazyrski [523]3 years ago
3 0

The Miller-Urey experiment showed that simple molecules could have arisen abiotically. This chemical experiment included conditions similar to those present on the early Earth, and tested the origin of life under those conditions.

Water (H2O), methane (CH4), ammonia (NH3) and hydrogen (H2) were the chemicals used to produce the results of the experiment, the factors needed for simple life to arise. Given similar conditions on other planets, it's possible that life could arise there as well.

Through which foramen do axons of motor neurons of the glossopharyngeal nerve pass through?
Tom [10]

Answer:

On passing through the jugular foramen, the glossopharyngeal nerve then passes between the internal carotid artery and the internal jugular vein, descending in front of the artery. It then passes deep to the styloid process and related muscles attaching on to this bony prominence.

How does newtons law of universal gravitation apply to earth and the moon
Nataly [62]
Newton proved that the force that causes, for example, an apple to fall toward the ground is the same force that causes the moon to fall around, or orbit, the Earth. This universal force also acts between the Earth and the Sun, or any other star and its satellites. Each attracts the other.

In which specimen were cells first identified
Paha777 [63]
<span>The appropriate response is a cork. The cell was first found and named by Robert Hooke in 1665. He commented that it looked peculiarly like cells or little rooms which friars occupied, in this way determining the name. However what Hooke really observed was the dead cell dividers of plant cells (cork) as it showed up under the magnifying lens.</span>

The net primary productivity is usually more than 80% of gross primary productivity.
fomenos

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

  • As GPP stands for the gross primary productivity, it's the total amount of energy produced in the process and the NPP is the net primary productivity. NPP is the difference between the GPP and the energy used by the producer for the process of respiration.
  • GPP is a continuous and ongoing process that consumes the energy as compared to the NPP that store energy and not being used. Thus, GPP can affect NPP but NPP does not affect GPP.
  • For example, GPP is completely being dependent on the chlorophyll content of the plant, but NPP is independent of that content of chlorophyll.

Which two features indicate that a cell is a plant cell and not an animal cell? A. cell membrane, flagella B. lysosome, vacuole
Triss [41]
c. cell wall, vacuole

Among the choices above, the two features that indicate that a cell is a plant cell is the cell wall and vacuole. The cell wall can only be found in plant cells. It is the rigid cell that surrounds the cell membrane. The vacuole of a plant cell and animal cell are way too different. The vacuole of an animal cell is usually more than one and small, even smaller that that of the plant cell. On the other hand, the vacuole of the plant cell is only one in fact a large one that takes up almost 90 percent of the volume of the cell
