Answer:

You just posted his one? Credit to: Vermont Legislative Research Shop

Explanation:

If you need extra resources: Lawn and garden chemicals, such as fertilizers enter the groundwater in two ways. In the first method, the chemicals can enter the groundwater by rainwater into a stream as runoff. This is especially problematic in urban environments where hard-surfaced roads allow rainwater to move over them without benefit of soil acting as a filter (Rosen and White, 1999). The water in streams replenishes groundwater, so the chemicals are absorbed into the groundwater as well. The second method of contamination is through leaching, which is the downward movement of a substance through the soil. The fertilizer may also dissolve into the surface water, which recharges the groundwater (Virginia Cooperative Extension, 1996).  Nitrate is highly soluble and readily leaches into groundwater. Water with over 10 parts per million nitrate-nitrogen can cause methemoglobinemia, an inability to use oxygen in infants. The nutrient phosphorus harms clear, free water by creating algal blooms. This process, known as eutrophication, turns the water green, clouds the water, causes odor problems, and depletes the oxygen for fish and other species, effectively suffocating them (Lake Champlain Basin, 1998).  To ensure that the groundwater does not get so contaminated as to be unhealthy, in 1986 the Department of Food and Markets implemented the Pesticide Monitoring Program. The goal of this program is to test wells in agricultural areas to help farmers learn about practices that prevent pesticides from leaching into the groundwater, and to conserve the nutrients in fertilizers and manure in the soil. This program is funded by fees taken from companies that sell pesticides and fertilizers in Vermont (Vermont Department of Agriculture, Food and Markets, 1998).

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

e.)  If exposure to cowpox gives immunity to smallpox in milkmaids, then milkmaids have a natural immunity and their blood should be used to develop a smallpox vaccine.

Explanation:

  • Milkmaids who suffered from cowpox did not suffer from smallpox i.e. they were immune to the disease.
  • If milkmaids did not suffer from smallpox then there must be some element of immunity that they received once they had recovered from cowpox, this would likely be found in their blood as antibodies.

Blood type is a genetically determined trait. Two siblings donate blood and find out their blood types. The brother is Type A an
rjkz [21]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The brother has different alleles for the blood type gene than his sister does.  Blood type is inherited from parents like many other traits that can be displayed on a punnet square.  Depending on what the parents blood type alleles were, the brother and sister could have different blood types.  

A different number of chromosomes doesn't lead to different blood types, so D is wrong.  And A is incorrect because the number genes also does not affect blood type.  And I think the blood type genes are on the same chromosome, so B is wrong.  C is correct because blood type is inherited by alleles, and different alleles can cause different traits, such as blood types.
