1 answer:

There are two distinct Cryogenian ice ages called Sturtian glaciation between 750 and 700 million years ago, followed by the Varanger (or Marinoan) glaciation, 660 to 635 million years ago which covered the earth ice. Also the Global sea level has fluctuated widely in the recent geologic past.

Explanation:

Cryosphere is the part of the earth’ surface where the land areas exits in the solid form when the warming temperature low. The snow and ice covers the 10% of the earth permanently in the ratio of 60% in northern hemisphere and less than in snow in southern hemisphere.

Its is formed due to lesser warm temperature. snow and the ice covered on the surface it store the fresh water under the floating ice, most of the fresh water is present in the two major ice sheets Antarctica and Greenland.

Melting ice does not cause any impact on sea because it was already floating on the sea surface. If the temperature become warm, its melt on the ocean itself.

Nitella [24]

Answer:

Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases.

Which veterinary professionals design the veterinary curriculum? please help

Virty [35]

Answer:

Recent studies of the veterinary profession have established a need for training in various areas beyond those directed toward building competence and proficiency as a clinician. To address this need, a workshop was designed whose objective was to develop a detailed outline of a model curriculum that would encompass the skills, knowledge, aptitudes, and attitudes deemed essential for economic success in the veterinary profession. The model curriculum was created from comprehensive input provided by consultants and educators. Constraints for implementation of this curriculum are identified, and future directions are discussed.

In coccidioidomycosis, _______ containing many endospores form in the lungs.

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

spherules

Explanation:

Like histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis is acquired by the inhaling fungal spores.

Arthrospores are formed by the hyphal fragmentation in this case. Once in body, fungus differentiates into the spherules which are filled with the endospores.

Most of the C. immitis infections are self-limiting and asymptomati. The endospores are transported in blood, disseminating infection and thus leading to formation of granulomatous lesions on face and nose. I

Thus, spherule is a thick-walled spherical structure which encloses the endospores and occurring in parasitic form of the fungi of genus Coccidioides.
