How was the first corn on the cob produced

1 answer:

4 0

Every young corn plant will have the male straw-tassels at the top, the male part, and the silk tassels lower of the plant on the developing corn, the female part. The developing corn has ovules in its ears. The pollen from the straw-tassels will pollinate the silk tassels. The silk are the stigma and style of the female flower. When the pollen travels down the style and fertilizes the ovules, a corn(the seed) develops on the cob.
Each silk represents a corn seed. If particular silks are not pollinated, that corn will not be full of corn

Which characteristic could help you distinguish between types of fungi

algol [13]

Answer: The correct answer would be the spores made by the fungi.

The major phyla of the fungi are usually classified on the basis of characteristics of sexual structures.

For instance, the chytridiomycota produce zoospores, the blastocladiomycota undergo sporic meiosis, the ascomycota forms ascospores et cetera.

Fungi are mainly classified into seven phyla:

Microsporidia

Chytridiomycota

Blastocladiomycota

Neocallimastigomycota

Glomeromycota

Ascomycota

Basidiomycota

Petrolyn motor oil is a combination of natural oil and synthetic oil. It contains 5 liters of natural oil for every 3 liters of

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Total 495 liters of natural oil are needed.

Explanation:

It is given that Petrolyn motor oil is a combination of natural oil and synthetic oil. It contains 5 liters of natural oil for every 3 liters of synthetic oil.

It means the ratio of natural oil and synthetic oil is

$\frac{\text{Natural oil}}{\text{Petrolyn motor oil}}=\frac{5}{5+3}=\frac{5}{8}$

Let in order to make 792 liters of Petrolyn oil he needs x liters of natural oil.

It means the ratio of natural oil and synthetic oil is

$\frac{\text{Natural oil}}{\text{Petrolyn motor oil}}=\frac{x}{792}$

Equate both ratios,

$\frac{x}{792}=\frac{5}{8}$

On cross multiplication we get

$8\times x=5\times 792$

$8x=3960$

Divide both sides by 8.

$x=\frac{3960}{8}$

$x=495$

Therefore total 495 liters of natural oil are needed.

What type of fossil preserves delicate details of an organism after pressure squeezes out liquids and gases?

pickupchik [31]

Carbon film fossil is the type of fossil that preserves delicate details of an organism after pressure squeezes out liquids and gases.

Carbon film fossil is a type of fossil that is mainly composed of carbon and can preserve delicate details of organism’s (animal and plants) parts. The formation of carbon film fossil starts when a dead organism is buried under sediments. After some time, the organism will begin to decay in a process known as carbonization. Pressure will squeeze out liquids and gases from the dead organism, leaving behind a layer of carbon. Carbon film fossils usually appear black or brown in colour.

Suppose that a person takes a fall while hiking and develops tetanus when the pathogen enters through an open wound in their arm

qaws [65]

The tetanus infection is considered to be a Droplet infection.

<h3>What is Tetanus?</h3>

Tetanus is a neurological disease which is characterized by the occurrence of spasms in the muscle.

Tetanus can be caused if initial care does not take place after the wound occurs and therefore, it is very important to immediately take care of the wound.

To treat the wound tetanus immunoglobulin and tetanus toxoids are given to the person, however, it is necessary to give the two injections using different syringes and at different sites, because the immunoglobulin can cause neutralization fo the toxoid.

Thus, this could be the answer.
