How are oxbows and loess similar?

Biology
2 answers:
wariber [46]3 years ago
5 0

The correct answer is (a) They both show the constructive power of erosion.

Oxbows and loess both show similarity as they both show the constructive power of erosion. An oxbow lake starts as a curve in a river. Oxbows are formed where the river often empties into another water body. They are found in the low lying area. A loess is a sediment which is formed by the accumulation of the wind blown silt. They can experience a erosion rate of 2.5 kg /m² per year.

Assume that the mother's genotype is AZ/az, and the father's genotype is Az/aZ, and the recombination rate is 10%. What are the
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

0.45 from mom and 0.05 from dad.

Explanation:

The recombinant progeny might occur due to the crossing over at the time of meiosis in which the exchange of chromosomes occur in the homologous chromosomes of non sister chromatids.

The progeny receives half of their chromosome from the mother and half from the father. The mother 50% AZ and 50% az chromosomes respectively. The 10% recombination has occured due to which the mother chromosomes is reduce upto 45%. The recombinant  10% will be aZ and Az and has 5% frequency. Mom has the ability of az chromosomes is 0.45 %. The father has the genotype 50% Az and 50% aZ. The 10% recombination has occured due to which the father chromosomes is reduce upto 45%. The recombinant will be az and AZ with 5% frequency. So, father has az with 0.05 % probability.

Thus, the answer is 0.45 from mom and 0.05 from dad.

What are three ways body systems work together to maintain homeostasis?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Each organ system performs specific functions for the body, and each organ system is typically studied independently. However, the organ systems also work together to help the body maintain homeostasis.

For example, the cardiovascular, urinary, and lymphatic systems all help the body control water balance. The cardiovascular and lymphatic systems transport fluids throughout the body and help sense both solute and water levels and regulate pressure. If the water level gets too high, the urinary system produces more dilute urine (urine with a higher water content) to help eliminate the excess water. If the water level gets too low, more concentrated urine is produced so that water is conserved. The digestive system also plays a role with variable water absorption. Water can be lost through the integumentary and respiratory systems, but that loss is not directly involved in maintaining body fluids and is usually associated with other homeostatic mechanisms.

Similarly, the cardiovascular, integumentary, respiratory, and muscular systems work together to help the body maintain a stable internal temperature. If body temperature rises, blood vessels in the skin dilate, allowing more blood to flow near the skin’s surface. This allows heat to dissipate through the skin and into the surrounding air. The skin may also produce sweat if the body gets too hot; when the sweat evaporates, it helps to cool the body. Rapid breathing can also help the body eliminate excess heat. Together, these responses to increased body temperature explain why you sweat, pant, and become red in the face when you exercise hard. (Heavy breathing during exercise is also one way the body gets more oxygen to your muscles, and gets rid of the extra carbon dioxide produced by the muscles.)

Why is this relationship between a plant and bacteria called a mutualism?
belka [17]
Mutualism is relationship that is beneficial to both organisms involved. The relationship between a plant and a bacterium called a mutualism because both of them help each other. Bacteria are involved in increasing the fertility of the soil by fixing atmospheric nitrogen and thus provide plant with nitrogen. In return, the bacteria make their homes in what usually become nitrogen "nodules" along plant roots. The plant gets food, the bacteria gets shelter, everybody wins.

A gene cannot react chemically and form a trait without the proper what
kogti [31]

Answer:

Enzyme

Explanation:

Enzymes are the bio-catalyst that serve to accelerate the metabolic reactions occurring in a living cell.  All the metabolic reactions of organisms are catalyzed by enzymes. Each metabolic reaction is catalyzed by specific enzyme. Absence of that particular enzyme leads to absence of the respective product. Since genes code for protein which regulate the specific trait, absence of enzyme does not allow the expression of that trait.

Example: Absence of enzymes for chlorophyll synthesis would lead to absence of chlorophyll from leaves of the green plants.
