The mining of oil shale requires <em>large amounts of water.</em>

Explanation (from wikipedia):

Depending on technology, above-ground retorting uses between one and five barrels of water per barrel of produced shale-oil. The water needed in the oil shale retorting process offers an additional economic consideration: this may pose a problem in areas with water scarcity.

How to determine the enzymes used to cut plasmid in cloning.
Alex73 [517]
When cloning by restriction digest and ligation, you use restriction enzymes to cut open a plasmid (backbone) and insert a linear fragment of DNA (insert) that has been cut by compatible restriction enzymes. An enzyme, DNA ligase, then covalently binds the plasmid to the new fragment thereby generating a complete, circular plasmid that can be easily maintained in a variety of biological systems. Read on for an in-depth breakdown of how to do perform restriction digests.

Explain why a plant that does not get enough nitrate has weak growth
blagie [28]

Answer:

Nitrate deficiency

Explanation:

Plants absorb nitrates in water through their roots. Nitrates are present in high levels in plant fertilisers. Without nitrates, the amount of chlorophyll in leaves reduces. This reduces the plant's ability to photosynthesise and grow properly, which reduces the farmers' crop yield .
