when studying the earth, scientists usually consider it a closed system. How should that affect human decisions about managing r

esources and waste?

Zarrin [17]4 years ago

Answer:

In thermodynamics, a closed system can be described as a system which can exchange energy from outside but matter cannot be transferred from such a system. This means that the resources present on the Earth cannot be transferred or replaced and the waste can also not be removed. By understanding the concept of the closed system, humans should recognize the fact that many resources such as minerals present on the Earth cannot be replaced and hence, resources should be utilized effectively in a conserved manner. Also, as waste cannot be removed hence humans should stop forming such waste products which cannot be removed or recycled.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

The answer is D.

"An irregular galaxy is a galaxy that does not have a distinct regular shape, unlike a spiral or an elliptical galaxy. Irregular galaxies do not fall into any of the regular classes of the Hubble sequence, and they are often chaotic in appearance, with neither a nuclear bulge nor any trace of spiral arm structure."

he population of Japanese sika deer in central Japan was determined each year from 2005 to 2014. The sika deer population underw
vekshin1

Answer:

The population would grow to 63,667 deer in a year, and the growth rate would decrease the following year.

Explanation:

Sika deer population : starting at 26000 in 2005

                                     stabilized at 58000 between 2012 and 2014

                                      rmax = 0.57

The population size of Sika deer be one year after the carrying capacity increased to 70000 as a result of deforestation

carrying capacity (k) = 70000

population size ( N ) = 58000

max growth(rmax) = 0.57

To determine the growth

dN/dt = rmax N [ (K-N) / K ]  ---------- (1)

insert the given value into the formula above

dN / dt = 0.57 * 58000 [ 12000 / 70000 ]

           = 33060 [12000 / 70000 ]

           = 5667

The increase in population = 5667 + 58000 = 63667

A group of cells is assayed for DNA content immediately following mitosis and is found to have an average of 4 picograms of DNA
damaskus [11]

Answer:

b: 8;8

Explanation:

Mitotic or meiotic cell division constitute the m phase of the cell cycle. At the end of the m phase, the new cells enter the interphase stage of the cell cycle. The interphase is further sub-divided into;

  • <em>the G_0 phase,</em>
  • <em>the G_1 phase,</em>
  • <em>the S phase; and</em>
  • <em>the G_2 phase</em>.

The G_0 phase is essentially a resting phase. Cells that do not need to divide except when necessary move into this phase after exiting the m phase.

Actively dividing cells enter the G_1 phase after exiting the m phase. Cell development and growth takes place. From there, the cells enter the S phase where DNA replication/synthesis takes place. The cells then enter the G_2 phase where proteins are synthesized in preparation for division or m phase.

At the S phase, the amount of DNA a cell carries is doubled but the chromosome number remains the same. For example, if a cell enters the S phase with 2 g of DNA containing 10 chromosomes, at the end of S phase, the amount of DNA would have come 4 g while the number of chromosomes will remain 10.

Hence, if the average amount of DNA in the assayed cells immediately after mitosis is 4 picograms, the amount would be 8 picograms at the end of S phase and will still remains 8 picograms at the end of G_2 phase.

The correct option is b.
