This change in orbit, which is linked to past cooling trends, is called a Milankovitch cycle.

Milankovitch cycle is a cycle that occurs due to changes in the earth’s movement (orbit) around the sun over several years ago. The Milankovitch cycle include eccentricity (shape of the earth’s orbit), axial tilt (obliquity), and precession (how much the earth wobbles on its axis) which all combine to cause different effect on the amount of solar energy reaching the earth and eventually influence climatic patterns.

A bacterium was grown in two test tubes filled with media rich in glucose. One tube was sealed to produce anaerobic conditions,
amm1812

Answer:

The correct answer is: b. lightening of media in the unsealed tube only.

Explanation:

  • According to the question, the bacteria can undergo only aerobic respiration, that is it can produce its energy, that is, ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, only in the presence of oxygen.
  • The unsealed tube allowed air or oxygen to pass into it which can be used by the bacteria for its respiration. In the process, it will produce acid that will cause the media colour to lighten.
  • The sealed tube do not allow any oxygen to pass into it. As the given bacteria can undergo only aerobic respiration but not anaerobic respiration, in absence of oxygen it will not be able to undergo respiration and produce energy and acid. Hence, the media colour will remain unchanged.
  • The control tube is used to check the sterility of the media.

Ede4ka [16]

The type of hormone, such as the steroid, which passes directly through the cell membrane to nuclear receptors to cause changes in gene expression within the cell, is known as hydrophobic.

Hydrophobic steroid hormones are transported in the circulation, largely bound to plasma carrier proteins. Steroids are overall hydrophobic because of they have common tetracyclic hydrocarbon core.

Hence, the steroid hormones are lipid-soluble in hydrophobic environments and they able to pass through the cell membrane of cell. Steroid hormones have the ability bind with receptors and change their structure and causing that complex to easily pass into the nucleus in order to alter or change gene expression.

Viktor [21]

The typical light microscope at its maximum magnification power has a resolution of 200 nm. The light microscope is able to view and distinguish between two lines or points that are no less than 200 nm apart. Since our membrane of interest is 8 nm apart, it won't be visible under the light microscope. Several such membranes are needed to lined side by side to make the viewing possible. The number of membranes should be, \frac{200}{8} = 25.

F Suggest why insects visited flowers without petals.​
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Insects may visit them to collect pollen, but usually are ineffective pollinators and exert little natural selection on the flowers. Anemophilous, or wind pollinated flowers, are usually small and inconspicuous, and do not possess a scent or produce nectar. ... No bright colors, special odors, or nectar. Small.
