Answer:
Anomalous expansion
Explanation:
Anomalous expansion of water is the abnormal way water expands when exposed to low temperature.
At 4 degree Celsius , the density at the top layer is usually at the Maximum which makes the water sinks down and then the water in the lower layer rises up.
When the temperature drops below 4 degree Celsius, the water molecules at the top then freezes leaving the denser molecules at the bottom which doesn’t freeze as a result of their high density.
This way, organisms can survive in the water due to the lower layer not freezing.
Answer: Living Planet Index
Explanation:
The Living Planet Index is a survey measure of global biodiversity status based on the population abundance of vertebrate species in terrestrial, freshwater and marine habitats. We have to consider that a population is defined as a species within a geographical area. <u>It is used as a source of information to identify threats at the population level for each species on Planet Earth</u>.
With this analysis, an overall decline of about 60 percent in population size has been seen between 1970 and 2014. The decline in species populations is particularly greatest in the tropics, with South America and Central America suffering the most dramatic decline. The numbers of freshwater species have also declined dramatically. However, measuring biodiversity (all the varieties of life that can be found on Earth and the relationships between them) is complex, so the index should consider indicators to measure changes in species distribution, extinction risk and changes in community composition.
<u>The goal of the Living Planet Index is to achieve and promote global conservation of animals and their habitats.</u>
Answer:
The correct answer is -
Thymine: 20%
Guanine: 30%
Cytosine: 30%
Explanation:
According to Chargaff's rule which states that the purine residues are equal to the pyrimidines residue in DNA sample which means A+G = T+C where A is adenine, G is guanine, C is cytosine and T is thymine. It is also known that A is always equal to T and C is equal to G.
So, A+G+T+C = 100
20+20+G+C
100-40 = G+C
60= G+C
as we know G is equal to C similarly A is equal to T
Thus, G = C= 30%
A= T= 20%
Answer:
The three lines of defense model enhances the understanding of risk management and control by clarifying roles and duties. The model provides guidance for the implemented structure and the assigned roles and responsibilities of parties to increase the effective management of risk and control
Explanation:
the first line of defence – functions that own and manage risk. the second line of defence – functions that oversee or specialise in risk management, compliance. the third line of defence – functions that provide independent assurance, above all internal audit.
