Without P. ferruginea, the plant won't have any defenses against herbivores

Bullhorn acacia trees protect themselves from herbivorous animals by developing a mutualism with the ant- Pseudomyrmex ferruginea (also known as acacia ant). Ants get inhabited on tree, kill insects and stinging the heads of mammals that try to eat acacia. On the other side, acacia has special glands at the base of the  leaves that produce a nectar rich in sugar and amino acids that ants can consume.

Which of the following accurately describes carbon atoms?
Natasha2012 [34]


The best answer is D.

Carbon  has an affinity for bonding with other small atoms including other carbon atoms, via the formation of stable covalent  bonds.

In spite of the fact that carbon is present in a vast number of compounds, carbon is weakly reactive  compared to other elements.

It has the ability to form very long chains of strong and stable interconnecting  C-C bonds. This property allows carbon to form an almost infinite number of compounds. There are more known carbon-containing compounds than all the compounds of the other chemical elements  combined except those of hydrogen because almost all organic compounds contain hydrogen as well.

During gene expression, dna is transcribed into rna in the nucleus. then, the rna is translated into proteins in the cytoplasm.
antiseptic1488 [7]
The physical barrier that the mRNA must pass is the nuclear membrane. 
The process of gene expression involves two main stages; transcription ; the production of messenger RNA by the enzyme RNA polymerase, and the processing of the mRNA molecule. Then the process of translation which takes place outside the nucleus, therefore the mRNA must cross the nuclear membrane to enter the cytoplasm.

A geologist is studying a sand dune. The sand dune was formed as wind deposited sand against an obstruction. What process create
EastWind [94]
<h2>The correct answer is: Deflation.</h2>

Explanation:

  • In geology, Deflation can be defined as the process by which loose, light weight and small particles formed by the weathering of rocks, erosion of top-soil of the earth crust or the dust and sand particles are carried from one place to another by the action of wind.
  • When these particles hit or strike an obstruction like a mountain or hill they fall down on the ground.
  • Gradually with time, numerous such particles fall down and accumulate on the ground after striking an obstruction and eventually result in the formation of a sand dune.
