In complete sentences describe the energy flow between the Sun, the Earth, and space.
evablogger [386]

Answer: The energy from the sun passes through space in the form of invisible waves to the earth surface. It heats up the earth’s surface causing variation in climate.  

Explanation:

The amount of incoming energy from the Sun decides the weather and climate of earth. If the energy that is incoming and outgoing on the earth, then climate is in equilibrium. The balance is depending on the scattering, absorption, reflection and transformation of energy.  

The energy from sun passes through space and reaches the earth’s surface. On reaching surface, the solar energy warms the atmosphere releasing heat energy which gets transferred throughout the planets system by radiation, conduction and convection. Conduction happens in the atmosphere within first several millimeters close to the surface. This heated air expands as it is dense and rises causing transfer of heat to atmosphere through convection process. It results in formation of clouds.

The radiant energy from sun is transmitted via space in form of invisible waves. But much of the suns radiant energy, is transmitted back to atmosphere. The objects on earth like land, plants, animals absorb radiant energy as heat of which one third gets re-radiated back to atmosphere that is absorbed by carbon dioxide and water vapor. The atmosphere radiates heat energy back to earth increasing the earth temperature. This trapping of radiation is greenhouse effect.  

The thermal energy obtained by convection currents are responsible for wind, cloud formation, and weather formation.  The hydrosphere that comprises of 70% of earth’s surface absorbs solar energy.  

On the basis of the above explanation is:  

The energy from the sun passes through space in the form of invisible waves to the earth surface. It heats up the earth’s surface causing variation in climate.

Explain why animals living in a rain forest could not survive in the arctic.​
Archy [21]

Answer: They would not survive because they have already adapted to the humid environment of the rain forest and could not adapt fast enough to survive the frigid climate of the artic.

Why choose that gene for PCR in the bacterial identification lab?
Reika [66]

Answer:

Background

During the course of a bacterial infection, the rapid identification of the causative agent(s) is necessary for the determination of effective treatment options. We have developed a method based on a modified broad-range PCR and an oligonucleotide microarray for the simultaneous detection and identification of 12 bacterial pathogens at the species level. The broad-range PCR primer mixture was designed using conserved regions of the bacterial topoisomerase genes gyrB and parE. The primer design allowed the use of a novel DNA amplification method, which produced labeled, single-stranded DNA suitable for microarray hybridization. The probes on the microarray were designed from the alignments of species- or genus-specific variable regions of the gyrB and parE genes flanked by the primers. We included mecA-specific primers and probes in the same assay to indicate the presence of methicillin resistance in the bacterial species. The feasibility of this assay in routine diagnostic testing was evaluated using 146 blood culture positive and 40 blood culture negative samples.

Explanation:

Results

Comparison of our results with those of a conventional culture-based method revealed a sensitivity of 96% (initial sensitivity of 82%) and specificity of 98%. Furthermore, only one cross-reaction was observed upon investigating 102 culture isolates from 70 untargeted bacteria. The total assay time was only three hours, including the time required for the DNA extraction, PCR and microarray steps in sequence.

When growing cultures, the agar is ________ to separate pathogenic colonies of organisms from colonies of normal flora.
Anettt [7]

When growing cultures, the agar is<u> inoculated</u> to separate pathogenic colonies of organisms from colonies of normal flora.

Agar is the medium that is used for growing natural, common flora of microorganisms as the majority of the microorganisms can sustain in the agar medium.

If we want to determine a separate pathogenic colony of organisms in an agar medium then we need to inoculate the agar growth medium so that the pathogenic organism is separated from the normal flora of the microorganism. This technique allows us to filter out the cells that have the pathogenic microorganism in it.
