b. Selenium will be at a higher concentration in fish tissue than in the tissue of fish prey.
c. Fish will have a higher concentration of selenium than mercury in their tissues.
d. Selenium will be at a higher concentration in acid mine drainage than in fish tissues.

Answer:

The answer is A.

Explanation:

To test if the selenium from the mine has an effect on the fish living in the lake which i assume is close to the mine, testing the tissue of the fish from that lake and comparing it to the selenium levels of the fish from a nearby lake would be a testable hypothesis because there is a comparable aspect and there should be a difference in the numbers between the fish from the two lakes because of their distance to the mine.

I hope this answer helps.

Explain with examples of each, how both physical and chemical weathering, along with erosion, can change Earth's surface.
Lena [83]

Answer:

Both physical and chemical weathering, along with erosion, can change Earth's surface as physical weathering allows breakdown of rock into smaller pieces, these pieces can be move from one place to another through water, wind or ice (erosion), and when the smaller pieces will settle down at a place, rain water can react with the soil or smaller rock pieces to form rock minerals.

For example: Running water, wind, and rapid heating/cooling allows the rocks to break down into smaller pieces or grains (physical weathering), then the small grains are transported and settled away from the source area through wind or river (erosion), and at the end the surface area exposed to air  for chemical weathering.

Function in the cell cycle. Explain why interphase is important before mitosis begins.
Luda [366]

Answer:

During interphase, the cell copies its DNA in preparation for mitosis. Interphase is the 'daily living' or metabolic phase of the cell, in which the cell obtains nutrients and metabolizes them, grows, replicates its DNA, and conducts other "normal" cell functions. This phase was formerly called the resting phase.
