What do you think can be learned from samples of sediment from the ocean floor?

Sea floor sediment provide an invaluable key to past climate change. Finely varved sediments from areas of rapid deposition provide a high-resolution record of past climate variation, and volcanic ash layers contribute to the comprehensive study of climate change on relatively short timescales. Oceanographers like to say that we know more about the dark side of the Moon than we do about the oceans. That statement is doubly true of the seafloor. Although modern technology has allowed us to learn more about the seafloor, vast regions remain unexplored. Scuba divers can only dive to about 40 meters and they cannot stay down there for very long. Although this is good for researching the organisms and ecosystems very near a coast, most oceanic research requires accessing greater depths.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The wavelength of <u>light</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The electromagnetic spectrum shows the parts of light orchestrated by their wavelengths. The range for the most part comprises of both visible as well as invisible light. Together, they are called electromagnetic radiation. They are electromagnetic in light of the fact that they comprise of both an electric field and an magnetic field, and these fields travel in wave and travel at the speed of light: 3.00 × \bold{10^8} m/s.  

When the light gets scattered it gives out color in the form of VIBGYOR which is elaborately called as Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange and red. These colors are arranged in the spectrum based upon the wavelength.

Explain how a nymph grows or the molting process used for growing.
Alchen [17]

Answer:

As insect nymphs grow larger, their exoskeleton becomes too tight and they must replace it. Once a nymph outgrows its exoskeleton it will go through a process called molting, in which it leaves the old “skin” or exoskeleton behind. The new “skin” will harden and become the new exoskeleton

Which of the following statements about gluconeogenesis in animal cells is true?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

C. THE CONVERSION OF FRUCTOSE 1,6-BISPHOSPHATE to fructose- 6- phosphate is not catalyzed by phosphofructokinase -1, the enzyme involved in glycolysis.

Explanation:

This statement is true as the enzyme involved in this step is FRUCTOSE-1,6-BISPHOSPHATASE.

Gluconeogenesis is the coversion of non-carbohydrate molecules (lactic acid, amino acids, glycerol) through the pyruvic acid into glucose in the cells.

This process takes place mainly in the liver and occurs during periods of fasting, starvation, low carbohydrate diets.

The pathway of gluconeogenesis involves eleven steps of enzymatic catalyzed reactions.

In the conversion of fructose 1,6- bisphosphate to fructose-6-phosphate is catalyzed by fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase and not by phosphofructokinase -1 which is involved in glycolysis. This step is a rate-limiting step of the pathway.

The conversion of glucose-6-phospahte to glucose is not catalyzes by hexokinase but glucose -6- phosphatase.

Yuri [45]
1) The answer is <span>bluegreen algae
</span>
Bluegreen algae or cyanobacteria <span>are thought to have started life on earth because they converted the atmosphere that didn't have a lot of oxygen, into an atosphere with enough oxygen to exist life. That </span>oxygen was a product of their photosynthesis.

2) The answer is lightning.
<span>By Primordial Soup Theory, life began as a result of the combination of chemicals from the atmosphere and lighning (a form of energy) to make amino acids. Aminoacids are necessary to build proteins, and proteins are necessary for all the organisms.</span>
