This can cause other organisms that relay on this specific aquifer to find other sources of water or die. 

<span>An aquifer is actually an underground layer of water that contains permeable rocks, gravel, sand etc. the water can be brought to the surface by making a water well. Hydrogeology is the study of aquifers and the way of water flow in the aquifers. The depth of the aquifers differs from area to area and the aquifers that are closest to the surface are used for drinking and irrigation purposes. </span>

5c. Two parents, a heterozygous normal female and a male who is
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer and Explanation:

We can assume that being colorblind is a recessive trait.

That means the father has a genotype of both lowercase letters, denoted as bb.

Let's make a chart.

- The Father's Genotype is bb

- The Mother's Genotype is Bb (Because she is heterozygous, which means she has one Dominant trait (B) and one recessive trait (r))

<u>      b               b   </u>

<u>B|   Bb   |   Bb     |</u>

<u>b|   bb    |   bb     |</u>

We get 50% of the offspring to be colorblind, and 50% of the offspring to have normal color vision.

<u>That means the expected percentage is 50%.</u>

(Don't look too much into the capitalized MALE, its just there to throw you off guard and mess you up)

2. In gluconeogenesis, it takes two enzymes to convert pyruvate to phosphoenolpyruvate. a. Explain what is happening chemically
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:1. Pyruvate carboxylase

2. Phosphoenol pyruvate carboxy kinase

Explanation:

The conversion of pyruvate to phosphoenol pyruvate is catalyzed by two enzymes Pyruvate carboxylase and phosphoenol pyruvate carboxy kinase

1. Pyruvate carboxylase reaction

Pyruvate in the cytoplasm enters the mitochondria. Then, carboxylase of pyruvate to oxaloacetate is catalysed by a mitochondrial enzyme, pyruvate carboxylase. It needs the co-enzymes biotin and ATP.

The oxaloacetate formed has to be transported from the mitochondrial to the cytosol because further reaction of gluconeogenesis are taking place in cytosol.

2. Phoaphoenol pyruvate carboxy kinase (PEPCK)

In the cytoplasm, PEPCK enzyme then converts oxaloacetate to phoaphoenol pyruvate by removing a molecule of CO2. GTP or ITP donates the phosphate group.

The net effect of these two reactions is the conversion of pyruvate to phoaphoenol pyruvate. This circumverts the irreversible step in glycolysis catalyzed by pyruvate kinase (step 9 if glycolysis)

How does Bohr's model of the atom compare with Thompson's model?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

...

Explanation:

Bohr's model of the atom states that electrons orbit an atom's nucleus in electron shells of increasing energy. ... Thomson's model, or the plum pudding model, it describes atoms as spheres of positively charged matter, in which electrons are embedded in

I would really appreciate some help with this science question!
jasenka [17]

so you’d need to find the amount of gallons your family uses in 11 minutes and subtract 73000 from that number

i used the same formula, came up with 80300 gallons a year, and subtracted 73000 from it to get

7300 gallons are saved by reducing showering time by one minute
