Highly porous and permeable

Explanation:

Compared to other types of rock layers, an aquifer is highly porous and permeable.

Aquifers are always the target when prospecting for ground water in a formation.

  • Porosity is the amount of void spaces in a rock.
  • Aquifers are highly porous .
  • Permeability is the inter-connectivity of the void spaces and their ability to transmit fluids.
  • Aquifers have very high permeability compared to other rock types.

In terms of permeability and porosity, an aquifer is higher porous and permeable.

The decision to visit planets other than Earth is not supported by everyone. What would be a good argument against sending human
Ann [662]

Answer:

Sending humans to other planets may cause danger. We dont fully know what these planets are capable of doing. If there is such a thing as life on other planets then we still dont know weather or not life there is friendly or not. They could be harmful, because just as we dont know know exactly who or what they are, they dont know who or what they are either, so its a high chance they may want to defend themselves.

Why do animals have a specialized form of cellular reproduction (meiosis) in addition to the much more common for used for growt
ratelena [41]

This is because the cells we need for reproduction need to be genetically different from those of the rest of the body.

Cellular reproduction

When a mother cell divides into two or more daughter cells, this process is known as cell division.  Cell division frequently takes place as a component of a longer cell cycle. There are two different types of cell division in eukaryotes: a vegetative division (mitosis), in which each daughter cell inherits the genetic makeup of the parent cell, and a reproductive division (gametogenesis), in which the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is cut in half to produce haploid gametes (meiosis).  In cell biology, the process of mitosis, during which replicated chromosomes are split into two new nuclei, is a stage of the cell cycle. The number of chromosomes is maintained in the genetically identical cells produced by cell division.
