Explanation:

To know where erosion and deposition will occur, since we have no visual aid, we need to understand these concepts.

Erosion and deposition are terms that are often used in the geology especially when a rock is being transformed from either metamorphic or igneous to sedimentary rocks.

Erosion is the removal of lose and weathered rock materials from the surface of the earth.
Deposition is the laying down of the sediments in a basin.

An igneous and metamorphic rocks can be transformed into a sedimentary rock by erosion and deposition.

Prolonged exposure to the action of agents of denudation degrades a rock and forms sediments from them.

The sediments are removed by erosion.

As they are transported, the come to settle and rest in sedimentary basin.

Inside the basin, the weight of sediments pull against each other and causes them lithify into sedimentary rocks.

Any process that concurs with this analogy is that of erosion and deposition.

A hypothetical three-step metabolic pathway consists of the intermediates W, X, Y, and Z, and the enzymes that catalyze the reac

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

ZBWCYAX

Explanation:

Equation for the intermediates: Z↔W↔Y↔X

1) B catalyzes the breakdown of Z, therefore inhibiting B leads to the build up of Z.

2) If enzyme C is inactive then the organism will not receive Y to grow, thus Y is a by-product of C.

3) If A is inhibited then W, Y and Z build except for X, thus it make sense that A catalyzes a reaction that leads to X as a by-product.

4) Inhibiting C leads to the reaction toward making Z and W, thus it catalyzes the breakdown of C directly and Z indirectly.

Humans have 22 chromosome pairs and two sex chromosomes. Females have two X chromosomes; males have an X chromosome and a Y chromosome. ... In humans, animals, and plants, most chromosomes are arranged in pairs within the nucleus of a cell. Humans have 22 of these chromosome pairs, called autosomes.
