Civil engineers want to determine whether the porosity of surface soil affects aquifer recharge rates
fomenos

Aquifer recharge is water that moves from the land surface or unsaturated zone into the saturated zone. Quantitative estimation of recharge rate contributes to the understanding of large-scale hydrologic processes. It is important for evaluating the sustainability of groundwater supplies, though it does not equate with a sustainable rate of extraction. Where contamination of an aquifer is a concern, estimating the recharge rate is a first step toward predicting solute transport to the aquifer. Recharge may cause a short- or long-term rise of the water table. Artificial drainage, e.g., with horizontal porous pipes buried at a chosen depth, is sometimes used to maintain a minimal thickness of vadose zone for agricultural or other purposes.
Recharge rates vary considerably in time and space. Recharge often occurs episodically in response to storms and other short-term, high-intensity inputs. For a given amount of infiltration, temporal concentration enhances recharge because it entails shorter residence times for water in the portions of the soil from which evapotranspiration takes place. Similarly, a larger fraction will become recharge if it is concentrated in narrow channels such as fingers or macropores, not only because this tends to hasten its passage through the unsaturated zone, but also because the water then occupies less of the volume of soil from which evapotranspiration takes place.

Challenge: Human cells have 46 chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of a pair of identical chromatids attached together by a st
lora16 [44]
The answer is 46 chromosomes.

Before mitosis, cell duplicates its DNA material so there are 46 chromosomes in duplicates and in total there are 46 x 2 = 92 sister chromatids. During mitosis, sister chromatids first join in the middle of the cell and then separate towards the opposite sides of the cell. After they separate, there are 46 sister chromatids on the one side and 46 sister chromatids on the other side. Each sister chromatid at the end of cytokinesis actually represents the chromosome of the newly formed daughter cell.
