Answer:

wheat crop

Explanation:

Resources can be either renewable or non renewable.

Renewable resource can be defined as the resources which have long availability or faster replenishment as compared to the consumption rate of the resource or both.

Examples include air, soil, plants, animals and others.  

Alternatively, non renewable resource refers to the resources which are available for a limited amount of time or whose replenishment is slower as compared to its consumption rate or both.

Examples include coal, oil.

Wheat crop is both a renewable and a non renewable resource.

Wheat crop can be grown again and again. Also, wheat crop is renewable as long as the soil is available for its growth. Appropriate soil provides ideal platform for growth of wheat plants.

Hence, it is a renewable resource as long as it can be grown again and as long as the soil is available. Also, ideal conditions which favour wheat crops need to be available.

Wheat crop is available for a limited period of time after which it can become useless. Also, wheat crops can be destroyed before they can be consumed. Limited availability can be due to shorter usefulness of the crops after which they become non usable. Other reason for low availability is that the crops can be damaged before they can be harvested for use.

Thus, it is also a non renewable resource.

Sea water is a renewable resource since it is available for infinite period of time.

Solar energy is a renewable resource since it is available for infinite period of time.

Iron ore is a non renewable resource since it is not available for infinite period of time. This will perish when it is consumed completely and its replenishment takes a long period of time. Hence, it will be unavailable as long as it is not replenished.

In the peppered moth scenarios what is the variation? And the selection?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Variation is number of alleles for the wing color of the peppered moths. The wing color ranges from pure white to pure back.

Selection pressure is predation by birds.

Explanation:

In the wake of the industrial revolution, white-winged peppered moths had a large allelic frequency in the population compared to black-winged peppered moths. However, when the environment changed due to soot produced by industries (making the environment darker) white-winged peppered moths reduced while that of black moths increased.

This is because black moths were able to blend in and camouflage in the dark environment than white-winged peppered moths that stood out to their predators. Black moths, therefore, had an increased chance of reaching adulthood and passing their genes to the next generation. This increased the allelic frequency of black-winged peppered while that of white-winged moths reduced in the population.

Bacterium that causes tetanus is an anaerobe but it has a blank before anaerobe​
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

maybe?

Explanation:

Characteristics of Clostridium Tetani

Clostridium tetani is an obligately anaerobic bacillus that is gram positive in fresh cultures but may have variable staining in older cultures or tissue samples.25 The complete genome of the organism has been sequenced, and its products were recently compared with other clostridia.26 During growth, the bacilli possess abundant flagella and are sluggishly motile. Two toxins, tetanospasmin (commonly called tetanus toxin) and tetanolysin, are produced during this phase. Tetanospasmin is encoded on a plasmid that is present in all toxigenic strains.
