The three sources of energy include,

Solar energy

Wind energy

Water and geothermal.


Energy is termed as the capacity of physical system to do work. It exists as kinetic or mechanical energy, light potential energy, electrical and heat.

Source of energy can be classified as renewable and non-renewable.

The renewable is derived from natural processes which replenished constantly, for example, solar energy, biomass, ocean, hydropower and wind.

The solar energy it is sustainable to mean that it does not run out but it is maintained reason being that sun shines every day.

A good advantage of solar is that it is natural and available in plenty, and non-pollution. Wind energy helps to turn the blades of windmills as it turns shaft to where they are attached.

A cross involving true-breeding, red snapdragons and true-breeding, white snapdragons produce all pink offspring because both ge
stiks02 [169]

Answer: The correct answer for the blanks are- 1) Dominant and 2) Blending of the trait.

Incomplete dominance produces a blend/ intermediate phenotype of both the parental phenotypes ( such as Pink snapdragon here) because none of the parental allele completely masks the effect of other.

As per the given information in the question, when true-breeding, red snapdragons are crossed with true-breeding white snapdragons, they produce pink colored offspring. This means that neither of the parental gene is dominant over the other.

When both are cross bred, they will represent a heterozygous state ( when alleles for both the snapdragons are present ), and they will produce an intermediate phenotype ( that is a blend of both the traits). This represents blending of the parental trait.

_____ is the irregular break of a mineral
Sati [7]

Answer:

I'm not sure if this is right, but i believe the right answer would be fracture.

Explanation:

In geology, a fracture is any separation in a geologic formation, such as a joint or a fault that divides the rock into two or more pieces. A fracture will sometimes form a deep fissure or crevice in the rock. Fractures are commonly caused by stress exceeding the rock strength, causing the rock to lose cohesion along its weakest plane.

hope this helps :)

Which statement most accurately explains how allosteric regulation can change an enzyme's catalytic activity? View Available Hin
Digiron [165]

Answer:

In allosteric inhibition, a regulatory molecule binds to a location other than the active site, resulting in a change in enzyme shape that allows the active site to bind substrate.

Explanation:

Allosteric regulation of an enzyme can be positive or negative, but it always involves effector molecules that bind to non-active site of the enzyme and change its conformation. That site of binding is called allosteric or regulatory site. If the enzyme activity is enhanced effector molecule is called allosteric activator but if the activity is decreased effector molecules are allosteric inhibitors.
