Answer:
c. Grasses and small shrubs would be the first plants to begin growing from the seeds that are in the soil.
Explanation:
This question depicts SECONDARY SUCCESSION, which is one of the two types of ecological successions where an area previously occupied by living organisms is disturbed by natural causes such as hurricanes, tornadoes etc. This is the case in this question where thunderstorms that lead to tornadoes leave a significant impact on the environment of the southeastern part of the United States.
According to the question, the tornado results in the uprooting of previously existing trees that has occupied that area. After the devastating effect of the tornado on the environment, changes occur rapidly since the soil of the environment are already rich in nutrients. The first plants to recolonize in secondary succession are annual plants consisting of grasses and shrubs whose seeds were not destroyed by the tornado. These forms of plants can also be called PIONEER species as far as secondary succession is concerned.
Hence, based on the question, grasses and small shrubs would be the first plants to begin growing from the seeds that are in the soil.
The ribosome is the location of translation, while transcription always takes place in the nucleus.
Answer:
An example of an amphibian is a fish. They typiclly live in humid wet places such as swamps and near lakes.
Different type of fish are when somethign seperates or distuinguishes 2 similiar fish. For example a tiger shark is typically smaller but more aggresive than the larger great white shark
Explanation:
Transport of glucose from the intestinal lumen into the blood. Activity of the Na+/K+ ATPase (green) in the basolateral surface membrane generates Na+ and K+ concentration gradients, and the K+ gradient generates an inside-negative membrane potential.
Explanation:
The Na+K+ ATPase uses the energy of ATP hydrolysis to move Na+ out of the epithelial cells lining the intestine and into the blood. The reduced concentration of Na+ inside the cell coupled with high Na+ inside the lumen of the intestine results in a driving force for the movement of Na+ into the cell.
The cotransporters in the membrane of the epithelial cell facing the intestine allow Na+ to enter only when accompanied by either glucose or one of the amino acids (each have their own set of co-transporters).
Glucose then moves into the blood through the permease in the membrane between the cell and the blood. Thus, ATP is used as an energy source to drive Na+ out of the cell, resulting in glucose transport from the intestine to the blood.
Answer:
The correct answer is E. Discovered "the transforming principle" that could genetically alter bacteria.
Explanation:
Oswald Avery, Colin MacLeod and Maclynn McCarty experimented with pneumococcus and suggested that DNA (rather than protein as believed at the time) may be the hereditary material of bacteria, and could be analogous to genes in higher complexity organisms.
