<h2>Answer </h2>

Moss

<u>Explanation</u>

Moss is often used as a soil conditioner. The capacity of Sphagnum to keep damp creates the moss a common soil conditioner. A soil conditioner is a material manufactured from organic matter which assists to enhance the soil's characteristics, scoring slow-releasing nutrients. It has been simply used to kill any weed seeds. Mosses are small flowerless plants that typically develop in thick green clumps or mats usually in damp or dark areas.

5 Which of the following statements best explains
Sav [38]

Answer:

B Physical separation of populations prevents  interbreeding and mixing of gene pools.

Explanation:

Geographic isolation means two populations are unable to reproduce with one another. This means that over time, the variation in the gene pool will be different for one group compared to the other, and the species will genetically diverge from one another. resulting in speciation.

What is the structure of a protein molecule?
Olenka [21]

Protein structure is the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in a protein molecule. Proteins are polymers — specifically polypeptides — formed from sequences of amino acids, the monomers of the polymer. A single amino acid monomer may also be called a residue (chemistry) indicating a repeating unit of a polymer. Proteins form by amino acids undergoing condensation reactions, in which the amino acids lose one water molecule per reaction in order to attach to one another with a peptide bond. By convention, a chain under 30 amino acids is often identified as a peptide, rather than a protein.[1] To be able to perform their biological function, proteins fold into one or more specific spatial conformations driven by a number of non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bonding, ionic interactions, Van der Waals forces, and hydrophobic packing. To understand the functions of proteins at a molecular level, it is often necessary to determine their three-dimensional structure. This is the topic of the scientific field of structural biology, which employs techniques such as X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and dual polarisation interferometry to determine the structure of proteins.

Protein structures range in size from tens to several thousand amino acids.[2] By physical size, proteins are classified as nanoparticles, between 1–100 nm. Very large aggregates can be formed from protein subunits. For example, many thousands of actin molecules assemble into a microfilament.

A protein may undergo reversible structural changes in performing its biological function. The alternative structures of the same protein are referred to as different conformational isomers, or simply, conformations, and transitions between them are called conformational changes.

If one year was one foot, how long would the Cretaceous be (65 million) in miles?
Harman [31]

If one year was a foot then 65 million years will be 65 million feet. 1 mile=5280 feet so.

65 million divided by 5280= 12310.6

So your answer would be 12,310 miles.
