Answer:
Solar Energy
Explanation:
The table is about renewable and non renewable natural resources which may or may not pollute the environment. Natural gas and wind are the renewable energy resources which do not adversely affect the environment. Coal is non renewable energy resource that release harmful gases into the air upon burning. Solar energy is another example of renewable resource that do not pollute the environment.
Answer:
The correct answer would be:
- Genotype ratio: 1 (PP) : 2 (Pp) : 1 (pp)
- Phenotypic ratio: 3 (polka-dot tails) : solid colored tail
The genotype of both parents is Pp (heterozygous).
Thus, both the parent would produce two types of gametes which are P and p.
The cross would result in the production of offspring with three types of genotype PP, Pp, and pp in 1:2:1.
Offspring with PP and Pp will have a polka-dotted tail as it is the dominant trait.
Thus, the phenotype ratio would be 3 (polka-dotted tail) : 1 (solid colored tail).
Answer:
- In terrestrial environments: increasing CO2 levels cause an increased photosynthetic rate
- In aquatic environments: increasing CO2 levels cause an increase in water acidity
- In both terrestrial and aquatic environments: increasing CO2 levels lead to an overall increase in the average temperature (global warming)
Explanation:
In terrestrial ecosystems, rising carbon dioxide (CO2) levels increase the rate of photosynthesis (since CO2 is one of the reactants in photosynthesis), thereby also increasing plant growth. Moreover, in aquatic ecosystems, rising CO2 concentrations increase the levels of this gas dissolved on the surface of the oceans. This increases the acidity of the oceans, thereby modifying habitats and food web structures. The increasing acidity of the oceans also reduces the amounts of carbonate, which difficult for aquatic species (e.g., corals) to form their shells/skeletons. Finally, CO2 is a greenhouse gas that contributes to the increase in the average temperature by absorbing solar radiation that would otherwise have been reflected by the Earth's surface, and this increase in the temperature negatively affects life in both terrestrial and aquatic environments.
It's the proteins that cause the egg white to solidify when you cook it. If you keep the heat turned up too high or too long when you cook an egg, the proteins in the egg white form more and more bonds, squeezing some of the water out of the protein network and making the egg white rubbery.
