A.
Erosion by the river carries soil from the wetlands to the deep waters of the Gulf.
B.
Weathering by the river breaks up soil so it can be removed from the wetlands.
C.
Deposition by the river replenishes soil in the wetlands with sediment and nutrients.
D.

Deposition by the river replenishes soil in the wetlands with sediment and nutrients illustrates a positive effect that the Nueces River has on the wetlands.

Option: C

Explanation:

A river in its lower course leave the high elevated area and enters into the flat land. In the lower course of the river deposition is the prime work of a river. Estuary, delta are some of the landform that formed in the lower course of a river. Here, Nueces estuary is formed where Nueces river enters into the gulf.

In this gulf a wetland is formed which supports aquatic life and a dwelling place for them and land species also. Here, river deposits all its sediments and replenish the soil of wetland with new sediments and nutrients.

Levart [38]

It will take <u>120 minutes</u> for the concentration to become > 15000 cells/cm³

<u>Given data:</u>

Initial concentration ( density ) = 1000 cells / cm³

Target/final concentration = > 15,000 cells /cm³

<h3 /><h3>Calculating the concentration every 30 minutes </h3><h3 />

<em>note</em><em> : Given that each cell divides every 30 minutes </em>

  • <u>After the first 30 minutes </u>

Concentration = 2000 cells / cm³

  • <u>After 60 minutes </u>

concentration = 4000 cells / cm³

  • <u>After 90 minutes </u>

concentration = 8000 cells / cm³

  • <u>After 120 minutes </u>

concentration = 16000 cells / cm³

Therefore after 120 minutes the concentration of the cells will be greater than 15000 cells/cm³ ( i.e. 16000 cells/cm³ )

13. Pyruvate is oxidized and converted into acetyl CoA in the mitochondria. Carbon dioxide and NADH are also made.

11. The acetyl CoA undergoes a series of changes and ATP, FADH2, NADH, and carbon dioxide are released.

4. NADH and FADH2 lose their electrons and get converted back into NAD+ and FAD.

15. Oxygen takes electrons and water is produced. 34 ATP molecules are released.
