How does phosphorus reach surface waters​

Biology
1 answer:
egoroff_w [7]4 years ago
5 0

It is an essential element for plant life, but when there is too much of it in water, it can speed up eutrophication (a reduction in dissolved oxygen in water bodies caused by an increase of mineral and organic nutrients) of rivers and lakes. Soil erosion is a major contributor of phosphorus to streams.

Need help with lining up mutated DNA sequence
sergejj [24]
This particular area of genetics can be quite complex. So basically in DNA their is adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine. So, then there is another step to this: Adenine links with Thymine (A is to T), and Cytosine pairs up with Guanine (C is to G). This is known as base pairing. However, when translating DNA to RNA their is a catch, there is no thymine in RNA. Instead there is Uracil. SO in RNA it would be like so: A is to U and C is to G. So when transcribing DNA to mRNA it would be like this. I will give an example: DNA: TGA GTC AAT GGC. However with RNA it would be like this, using the same example I just showed you: ACU CAG UUA CCG. Do you see I it now? Basically when transcribing to RNA you use the opposite of all of the original copy except use Uracil instead of Thmine.

In what ways are conjugation and transformation similar and in what ways are they different?
Kobotan [32]
Conjugation and transformation are both kinds of horizontal gene transfer that allow a cell to receive and recombine external DNA. Conjugation involves physical contact between two bacteria using a pilus, through which a copy of plasmid DNA is transferred from the donor (F+) cell to the recipient (F-) cell. Transformation, on the other hand, is simple uptake of naked DNA into a recipient cell from the environment. The DNA usually comes from the leftovers of a dead cell.

Rocks have been found in South America that are very similar in makeup and age to rocks in South Africa
marusya05 [52]
This is because the continents were joined together in a large landmass called Pangea. The theory of continental drift supports the statement that fossils and rocks that were similar in composition(makeup) and age were found on other continents because the continents were once joined together called Pangea
