Answer:

<u><em>Sediment A: </em></u>

  1. Carbonate sand
  2. Sediment made of seashell and calcite
  3. Sediment that has travelled farther

<u><em>Sediment B: </em></u>

  1. Quartz sand
  2. Made of harder minerals
  3. Forms when rocks break apart

Explanation:

<u><em>Sediment A</em></u><em>:</em> In the figure shown on left, the particle size is small and corners are round. This suggests that it is most likely made up of carbonate which can dissolve easily in the presence of water and CO2 forming weak acid (carbonic acid). Likewise, it is also possible that the material has traveled longer distances and due to erosion, the corners of the particle has become rounded. The carbonaceous material in the sea environment is often made by carbonate producer organisms that use calcite to make the protective shell.

<u><em>Sediment A</em></u><em>: </em>In the figure shown on right, the material is bigger in size with hard and sharp corners. This means that it is either broken recently from the rock and has not traveled longer distances OR, it is made up of harder minerals that cannot break easily by weathering and erosion process. Quartz sand has such properties.

<span>The job of these envelope extensions is to increase the bacteria's surface area so they can absorb more nutrients and grow. This is especially important in an adverse environment that lacks a lot of resources.</span>

Explain why DNA requires structural robust and efficient storage and organization mechanisms/structures.

Answer:

DNA packaging contributes to the compaction of the genetic material into cells that are many times smaller and also regulates gene expression and cell replication in living systems.

Explanation:

DNA is a fundamental molecule that contains instructions that make each organism unique. Each chromosome is composed of a very long linear DNA molecule associated with histone proteins that compact the genetic material, which is known as DNA packaging. Transcription and replication require that both strands of the DNA separate. Nonetheless, during DNA packaging, nucleosomes and the folding into chromatin fibers ensure chromosomal DNA is correctly packaged inside smaller nuclei. In consequence, DNA packaging not only enables the compaction of long linear DNA into the cells but also is involved in key biological processes such as gene regulation (transcription) and cell replication.
