Scientists estimate that there are between 700,000 and 5.1 million fungi on the planet. From your reading of "The fungi: 1, 2, 3

... 5.1 million species?" by Meredith Blackwell, briefly describe (2–4 sentences) two reasons that this estimate is so broad. In other words, why are recent estimates of fungal species diversity so varied?

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

1. This is because there is varying degrees or amounts of habitats and areas that yet to be assessed and examined when carrying out the estimates of fungal species diversity which leads to a broad range of estimates.

2.  Also, with the increments in the numbers of different species accumulation that has currently been discovered; a 1.2% increase in species is discovered every year,

Hence, it is ideal to conclude that a large number of species are being discovered in the later research which is making the estimates to be different.

Which of the following methods do scientists use to measure the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
slamgirl [31]

According to Jesse Kroll, an MIT professor of chemical engineering and civil engineering who specializes in atmospheric composition, the primary method used by scientists to quantify greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is spectroscopy. Thus, option A is correct.

<h3>What is the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?</h3>

Only 0.04% of the atmosphere is made up of carbon dioxide, and water vapor levels can range from 0% to 4%. However, while being the main greenhouse gas in our atmosphere, water vapor possesses “windows” that let some infrared light pass through without being absorbed.

Therefore, find a location outside with pure, unpolluted air, then use a special kind of flask to collect an air sample.

Had these chromosomes undergone replication before they were separated
lina2011 [118]
The longitudinal halves of a chromosome that has undergone replication are known as chromatids.  They will not be called chromosomes until after they are separated during Mitosis.  Mitosis distribute the chromatids to daughter cells as a cell divides.  The chromosomes are initially replicated in cells undergoing Meiosis, as in preparation for the mitotic division, but then, these chromosomes are divided twice so that four daughter nuclei are produced, each having the haploid chromosome number.
