Easter Island is a small 63-square-mile patch of land — more than a thousand miles from the next inhabited spot in the Pacific Ocean. In A.D. 1200 (or thereabouts), a small group of Polynesians — it might have been a single family — made their way there, settled in and began to farm. When they arrived, the place was covered with trees — as many as 16 million of them, some towering 100 feet high.

These settlers were farmers, practicing slash-and-burn agriculture, so they burned down woods, opened spaces, and began to multiply. Pretty soon the island had too many people, too few trees, and then, in only a few generations, no trees at all.

What kind of substance facilitates the hydrogen bonding of nucleotides into a new dna molecule?
son4ous [18]
The hydrogen bonding of nucleotides into a new DNA molecule is facilitated by enzymes. Hydrogen bonding is the electromagnetic attraction between polar molecules in which hydrogen is bound to a larger atom, such as oxygen or nitrogen. The nucleotides in a base pair are complementary which means their shape allows them to bond together with hydrogen bonds. The A-T pairs forms two hydrogen bonds while the C-G pair forms three. The enzymes called DNA polymerases join the nucleotides by way of phosphodiester bonds.

How could you use a microscope to help determine whether a specimen is a living or nonliving thing
lara [203]
<span><em>Whether living or non living:</em>
<em>When you put a sample of tissue under a microscope, if u can see a cell membrane, and can identify some cell structures like nucleus, mitochondria, vacuoles etc. , it was living, if not, its a non living thing.</em></span>

<span><em>However some cells don't have a nucleus( eg. prokaryotic cells), but all cells have a cell membrane or some sort of protective covering to contain the cell's insides. </em></span>

<span><em>To check if your specimen maybe-once living, maybe-still living "something", is living, get a look at it through an electron microscope - thats the best microscope ever- and see if the mitochondria's making any ATP( adenosine triphosphate, source of energy for most organisms), if it does, its living. If not, no</em></span><em>n living. :)</em>
