1. Water is abioitic and is needed by every living organism Soil is abioitic and is needed by plants Trees and other plants release water vapor from their leaves (a process called transpiration) that create humidity (which in turn influences how much rain falls in an area) The climate in an area influences the special adaptations that plants and animals have. For example: warm fur coats and thick layers of fat to keep warm in cold climates, animals in dry, hot climates (desert) have large ears to release heat and cool down. Biotic factors also influence abiotic factors. Animals produce waste (go to the bathroom) which in turn will become nutrients in the soil.
2. decrease heat will affect biotic factors, like animals, warmth.

Hope this helped :)

Answer:

Most likely Bacterial vaginosis (BV)

Explanation:

BV is a sexually associated health problem in women caused by a change in the normal balance of bacteria in the vagina.

This happens when the population of the good bacteria called lactobacillus reduces, giving room for the multiplication and growth of bad bacteria. The good bacteria keep the vagina a bit acidic, thereby preventing the growth and multiplication of bad bacteria.

A woman that is sexually active is predisposed to having BV. White vaginal discharge that appears milky is one of the symptoms of BV. A vaginal pH 6 affirms it is mostly a BV, as the pH level that is greater than 4.5 would favors the population of bad bacteria.

The 30-year-old female who is sexually active and complains of a large amount of milk like vaginal discharge, with the vaginal pH at 6.0, is mostly likely having Bacteria vaginosis (BV)

Define embryonic stem cells. Explain the pros and cons of Embryonic Stem Cells

just olya [345]

Answer:

Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent stem cells derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst, an early-stage pre-implantation embryo. Human embryos reach the blastocyst stage 4–5 days post fertilization, at which time they consist of 50–150 cells.

Explanation:

Adult Stem Cells

Embryonic Stem Cells

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

Pros

Trans differentiate and and reprogramming of these cells is possible but is not well studied

Thought to be less likely to be rejected if used in transplants

Success has already been demonstrated in various clinical applications

Can maintain and grow for 1 year or more in culture

Established protocols for maintenance in culture

ESCs are pluripotent cells that can generate most cell types

By studying ESCs, more can be learned about the process of development

Abundant somatic cells of donor can be used

Issues of histocompatibility with donor/recipient transplants can be avoided

Very useful for drug development and developmental studies

Information learned from the “reprogramming” process may be transferable for in vivo therapies to reprogram damaged or diseased cells/tissues

Cons

Limitations on ASC ability to differentiate are still uncertain; currently thought to be multi or unipotent.

Cannot be grown for long periods of time in culture

Usually a very small number in each tissue making them difficult to find and purify

Currently there is no technology available to generate large quantities of stem cells in culture

Process to generate ESC lines is inefficient

Unsure whether they would be rejected if used in transplants.

Therapies using ESC avenues are largely new and much more research and testing is needed

If used directly from the ESC undifferentiated culture prep for tissue transplants, they can cause tumors (teratomas) or cancer development

Methods for ensured reproducibility and maintenance, as differentiated tissues are not certain.

Viruses are currently used to introduce embryonic genes and has been shown to cause cancers in mouse studies
