Trees produce 2 colored rings per year and so by counting these rings you can have an idea as to how long the tree has lived. With 20 dark-colored rings and 20 light-colored rings, the tree is likely to have stood up for 20 years. I hope this helps.

The likely age of a tree that shows 20 light colored rings, and 20 dark colored rings is 20 years old. Each year of a tree's life is represented by a dark and a light part. The type of life that a tree has had can also be learned by looking at the rings. If rings are not even or concentric you can tell that a tree was leaning, or was growing in a windy area. You can also judge the health of a tree by how the rings are spaced.

Arguments FOR GMOs? Arguments AGAINST GMOs?<br>​
stich3 [128]

❤️Hello!❤️ In my opinion, i'm against GMO's. First of all you need to understand what GMO stands for, GMO means (Genetically Modified Organisms) and does that REALLY sound appealing to eat (Be honest). So now we have that covered i'm going to tell you some reasons why YOU should avoid Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO's). First of all GMO's are unhealthy, according to the American Academy of Environmental Medicine. They cite animal studies showing organ damage, gastrointestinal and immune system disorders, accelerated aging, and infertility. Second of all, GMO's contaminate forever. GMO's cross pollinate and their seeds can travel. It is impossible to fully clean up our contaminated gene pool. Self propagating GMO pollution will outlast the effects of global warming and nuclear waste. The impact is huge, threatening the health of future generations. Third of all, GMO's increase herbicide use, most GMO crops are engineered to be “Herbicide tolerant”―they deadly weed killer. Monsanto, for example, sells Roundup Ready crops, designed to survive applications of their Roundup herbicide.  Between 1996 and 2008, US farmers sprayed an extra 383 million pounds of herbicide on GMO's. Overuse of Roundup results in “superweeds,” resistant to the herbicide. This is causing farmers to use even more toxic herbicides every year. ♒️ Hope this helps!♒️  ↪️ Autumn ↩️

Describe the relative locations of the following bacterial cell components:
Dovator [93]

Answer:

A. outside plasma membrane:

1. cell wall   6. flagella

B. outside of the cell

4. fimbriae   5. pilus

C. in cytoplasm

2. nucleoid   3. ribosome

Explanation:

Bacteria is one of the three domains of cellular organisms. Bacteria are prokaryotes, cells that lack a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelle.

The plasma membrane is the outer membrane that enclosed the cytoplasm and cytoplasmic substance. The cell wall is covering the present out of the cell membrane or plasma membrane. Flagella are attached to the plasma membrane but it is present outside of the plasma membrane.

Fimbriae and pilus are the structure present outside of the cell wall and help to attach it to other cells or any surface. Nucleoid and ribosomes are present in the cytoplasm of the bacterial cell.
