Answer:

The word photic means referring to light. This the zone of a body of water that light can penetrate and photosynthesis can still occur. It usually starts at the surface and goes to a depth that is about 1% of the light intensity that is found at the surface.

Answer:

Light can penetrate this upper level of the water, and photosynthetic organisms can function.

Explanation:

Phytoplankton are found in photic regions of marine biomes. They are primary producers that use the sun as their energy source. The word "photic" itself comes from the root "photo-" meaning light, so that's a good thing to remember if you're confused.

Patrick did an experiment to study the solubility of two substances. He poured 100 mL of water at 20 °C into each of two beakers

VLD [36.1K]

Based on the results obtained;

Solute A is solute in water
A graph of the amount of solute dissolved against temperature helped to determine solubility for both substances for temperatures 20 °C to 80 °C.

<h3>What is the solubility of a substance?</h3>

The solubility of a substance of substance is the amount of that substance that dissolves in a given volume of solution or solvent.

The solubility of substances vary from one substance to another,

Some factors that affect the solubility of substances include:

temperature - the solubility of solids generally increases with temperature while the solubility of gases decrease with temperature and vice versa

pressure - the solubility of gases increase with increase in pressure and vice versa
nature of substance -some solutes generally have higher solubilities than others in a given solvent.
nature of solvent - based on the principle of like dissolves like, polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents whereas non-polar solute dissolve better in non-polar solvents.

1. One important feature of DNA is that it can be accurately copied and inherited from one generation to the next. Imagine if DN

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Explanation:

If DNA is not accurately replicated it can lead to mutation. Mutation is a genetic disorder that occur when a change occur and affect the genome of an organism. It can be result in frameshift mutation shifting nucleotide arrangement.

When DNA is not accurately replicated, it could lead to formation of an entirely new protein different from the original which has a different function this could lead to a form of disorder in the offspring. The effect of this disorder depends on it severity.
