A team of scientists placed five rocks in five separate, artificial environments. All the rocks came from the same formation and

had the same chemical composition. The table describes the environment for each rock:
Rock A Rock B Rock C Rock D Rock E
intermittent rain showers
temperatures alternating between -2°C and 20°C
frequent acidic showers that contain carbonic acid covered with algae and lichen placed in an oxygen-rich environment
hot and dry environment
low temperature of 35°C

After the experiment, the scientists observed that one particular rock had large fractures and had split into two pieces. They also observed that, compared to the other rocks, the chemical composition of this particular rock had remained largely unchanged. Which rock most likely fits this description?

A.
Rock A
B.
Rock B
C.
Rock C
D.
Rock D
E.
Rock E

Luda [366]
  1)United States for 2000 was determined from estimates of water withdrawals for the eight categories of public supply, domestic, irrigation, livestock, aquaculture, industrial, mining, and thermoelectric power.<span> total surface-water withdrawals were 323,000 Mgal/d, or 79 percent of the total withdrawals for all categories of use. About 81 percent of surface water withdrawn was freshwater. Total ground-water withdrawals were 84,500 Mgal/d, of which 99 percent was freshwater. Nearly all (98 percent) saline-water withdrawals were from surface water.

2)</span>Large amounts of water are stored in the ground. The water is still moving, possibly very slowly, and it is still part of the water cycle. Most of the water in the ground comes from precipitation that infiltrates downward from the land surface. <span>he term groundwater is used to describe this area. Another term for groundwater is "aquifer," although this term is usually used to describe water-bearing formations capable of yielding enough water to supply peoples' uses. Aquifers are a huge storehouse of Earth's water and people all over the world depend on groundwater in their daily lives.

Land breeze blows during the night from land to sea and the land becomes cooler faster than the sea. The air above the sea becomes less dense (i.e. warmer) and rises. The cooler air from the land moves in to take its place. Sea breeze: Sea breeze blows during the day and the land heats up faster than the sea

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

The culture might not be stained properly or the culture might be too old.

Explanation:

Gram staining is done to differentiate between gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria according to the difference in their cell wall. In gram staining, the gram-positive bacteria appears violet and gram-negative bacteria appear pink in color.

Therefore if a pure culture contains have both red and purple cocci that it can be concluded that the gram stating was not done properly like too much destaining was done or too much safranin was used or maybe the culture is too old so that cell wall of some bacteria degrades.

Which part of your brain is essential for receiving information that you are moving your legs?
stealth61 [152]

Motor coretex is essential for receiving information that you are moving your legs.

<h3>What is motor cortex?</h3>
  • The motor cortex's main job is to provide signals that control how the body moves. It is anterior to the central sulcus and a portion of the frontal lobe.
  • The primary motor cortex, premotor cortex, and supplementary motor area make up this region.
  • The motor cortex generates signals that are particular to movements and sends them to the muscles via spinal cord circuits and motoneurons to regulate motor behavior.
  • For the execution of movements to be precise, coordinated muscle activation patterns are required.
