Answer:

Lowering of water table

Explanation:

When excessive water is drawn from Aquifer well through pumping, the water under the ground reduces and its level usually referred to as water table goes down. Even in some cases the water table goes even below the level of aquifer and when such scenario happens the well is said to be dry and no water can be extracted from it.

Thus, excessive water extraction from well with low rate of water recharge can cause early drying up of wells.

A recessive allele does not affect the phenotype of a heterozygous person.

Effectus [21]

Answer: A. true

Explanation: The phenotype is the physical characteristics of a person. So, if a person has brown eyes, which may be a characteristic that is dominant, then they would have a genotype of BB or Bb. The reason why Bb, heterozygous, is not a different color is because the recessive b does not affect the dominant B allele.

Hope this helps!!!

A cell membrane that transports glucose, ions, or other charged or polar molecules is likely to have a higher percentage and gre

erica [24]

Answer: True

Explanation:

<u>A cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer made of polar phosphate head and a nonpolar lipid tail.</u> It is semipermeable and regulates the transport of materials through it. For this,<u> it is selectively permeable</u> and since it is made of lipids, hydrophobic and small polar molecules can diffuse easily through it by simple diffusion and down their concentration gradient. However, polar molecules, large molecules (such as glucose) and ions are not able to pass through it because they are repelled.

To accomplish the transport of these molecules that can not diffuse, proteins embebbed in the membrane function as carriers that enable the transport of polar molecules, large molecules and ions by passive (through facilitated diffusion, down its concentration gradient) or active transport (movement against its concentration gradient).

The A159E mutation causes an A amino acid to be replaced with an E amino acid (their structures are shown here). What effects do

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Due to hydrophilic nature of E amino acid, it will make it self to be exposed on protein surface and will disrupt the structure and potentially the function of troponin.

Explanation:

Since the E amino acid is hydrophilic, it will try to be exposed on the surface of the protein and thus will disrupt the tertiary structure and potentially the function of troponin.
