A textile company has started a program to recycle textiles so they are not added to a nearby landfill as part of the waste stre

am. The company collects old T-shirts, sorts them by color, breaks
down the fibers, and respins the fibers into yarn which is used to make new shirts. The recycling process is different from traditional manufacturing because it does not use dyes and it reduces
the amount of water used in the manufacturing process to make new shirts
(a) One drawback of traditional textile manufacturing is that it can release dyes into nearby rivers
( Identify an ecosystem service provided by rivers.
(1) Assuming the dyes are dark in color, describe how photosynthetic algae living in the water would be affected by the release of dyes into rivers.
(18) Textile dyes often contain heavy metals such as lead, chromium, and cadmium Describe how heavy metals in nearby rivers could affect predators at the top of the food chain

What are two ways in which the value of soil can be reduced?
Dovator [93]

Fertile soil is valuable because there is a limited supply. Less than one eighth of land on Earth has soil that are well suited for farming.

The thick, fertile soil of the prairies took many thousands of years to develop.

The two ways that the value of soil can be reduced is help use soil correctly, peanuts were once a corp to help soil, and still can be. The soil value recycle rocks and bedrock.

The value of soil is reduced when it loses its fertility and when topsoil is lost due to erosion. Soil can be conserved through contour plowing, conservation plowing and crop rotation. The thick mass of tough roots at the surface of the soil.

Water is able to travel against gravity, from the roots of a plant to the leaves at the top of the plant.
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B) Capillary action, when adhesive forces are stronger than cohesive forces.</em>

Explanation:

When water leaves from the leaves of a plant through events such as transcription, a gap is produced in the capillary action of the xylem tube. As a result, more water is drawn from the roots to fill the void. The forces of attraction between the water and the xylem tube are much greater than the intramolecular forces of water. As a result, the water flows in an upward direction due to these string adhesive forces present between the water and xylem tube.

topjm [15]

Answer: From top to bottom- T, C, G, A, T, A, T

Explanation:

These are the nitrogenous bases that make up a part of nucleotides in DNA.

There are 4 bases in DNA:

- Adenine

- Guanine

- Thymine

- Cytosine

The bases pair together from A to T and G to C, the way I remember is just reading it as AT GC and it works for me, but you make want to make an acronym if it helps you remember better.

As a result, all you have to do is type in the corresponding base to form the correct base pairs.
