Plants use nitrogen in fertilizers for growth. However, much of the nitrogen goes unused. What is one direct outcome of this exc
Olin [163]
There are many environmental negative direct outcomes of unused excess nitrogen from nitrogenous fertilizers. One of these is eutrophication. Eutrophication is the excessive richness of nutrients in a water body as a result of fertilizer run offs from the land, which causes a dense growth of plants in the water. Other negative outcomes are: green house effects, acid rain and contamination of underground water which has negative effects on human health.

Which answer best explains the difference between protists and bacteria?
Delvig [45]

Answer:

The correct option is A. Bacteria are prokaryotes and protists are eukaryotes

Explanation:

The major difference between BACTERIA AND PROTISTS is the Bacteria are PROKARYOTES in nature and they dont have what we called nucleus reason been that their microbes are single celled microbes while protists on the other hand are EUKARYOTIC in nature and they have nucleus and they can either have a single-celled or have more than one celled.

The Second difference is that protists can only be found in the area or surrounding that are mostly moisture while bacterial on the second hand can be found in every area, environment or surrounding.

Therefore the answer that best explains the difference between both protists and bacteria

Is option A which states that Bacteria are PROKARYOTES while protists are EUKARYOTES.

Humans have 46 chromosomes in each somatic cell. a. How many chromosomes does a child receive from its father? b. How many autos
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>a. How many chromosomes does a child receive from its father?</u>

Every person receives half of their chromosomes from their father and half from their mother. For that reason, if humans have 46 chromosomes in each somatic cell, 23 of them come from the father.

<u> b. How many autosomes and how many sex chromosomes are present in each somatic cell? </u>

Each somatic cell has 46 chromosomes in total; of which 22 pairs are autosomes and 1 pair are sex chromosomes. Therefore, 44 chromosomes are autosomes and 2 chromosomes are sex chromosomes (the X and/or Y chromosomes).

<u>c. How many chromosomes are present in a human ovum? </u>

The human gametes (ovum in women and sperm cell in men) have half of a somatic cell's genetic material, so that when they combine in a zygote to create their child, they form an initial cell with 46 chromosomes in total. The ovum therefore has 23 chromosomes: 22 autosomes and 1 sex chromosome.

<u>d. How many sex chromosomes are present in a human ovum?</u>

As I mentioned in the previous question, a human ovum has 1 sex chromosome. That way, when it combines with a sperm cell, which also has 1 sex chromosome, they form a zygote with <u>a pair</u> of sex chromosomes (one that comes from the mother and one from the father).
