Answer:
Explanation:
1. Describe two effects of insecticide use on the forest ecosystem other than the intended reduction of moths to protect the trees.
1. Insecticides when sprayed on a certain areas or spots can be blown by the wind to other areas or flow with rain water into nearby streams or local water bodies or seep through the soil into ground water. This is called indirect application or secondary poisoning,
2. Insecticides can affect the food chain because they reduce the biomass of primary consumers and there is is less food available to secondary consumers which eat poisoned plants or prey those who have been exposed to pesticides.
Insecticides can travel great distances through the environment and they can also flow with rain water into streams so fish can be directly or indirectly impacted by pesticides. The phenomenon of nutrient enrichment of aquatic bodies is known as eutrophication, which deteriorate the water quality leading to death of fish. Some long-term exposures cause abnormalities or mutations in developing fish larvae, while acute exposure can cause immediate fish die-offs. The liver, kidney, brain and gills of exposed fish are extremely vulnerable to chemical exposure.
Answer:
The regions near the topic receive more sunlight compared to those of the equator.
Limestone contains calcium carbonate which comes from animals that have shells, it already has carbon. Other sources are ocean animals which create shells that combine both carbon and calcium. Their dead bodies also release carbon to the ocean. Limestone is also known as a sedimentary rock that has carbon. Outside the ocean, limestone emits the carbon and becomes part of the carbon cycle. In addition to this, limestones are widely used by people becomes a part of the carbon cycle. Its component is present on asphalt, animal feed.
Answer:
Option (D)
Explanation:
The entropy is usually defined as the measure of the total thermal energy of a system per unit temperature. This amount of energy is used in performing valuable work. In simple words, it can be said that entropy is related to the disorder or degree of randomness of a particular system. This entropy concept gives proper information regarding the direction along which natural change occurs and is frequently observed in many present-day events.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
The major contribution made by Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty was 'transformation of nonvirulent cells with a DNA extract was blocked only if DNase was added'. This observation supported the idea that the transforming agent in Griffith's experiment was DNA.
The Avery–MacLeod–McCarty experiment showed that DNA was the transforming agent observed in Griffith's experiment.
Griffith's experiment (1928) suggested that bacteria were capable of transferring genetic information (DNA) by a process of horizontal gene transfer called transformation.
While the bacteria were killed by heat, Frederick Griffith observed that the DNA had was taken up by II-R strain bacteria via transformation.
Avery–MacLeod–McCarty experiment observed that protease enzymes did not destroy the transforming agent (but DNAse destroyed this transforming principle), thereby suggesting that the transforming agent in Griffith's experiment was bacterial DNA.
