Answer: c. they are very productive agriculturally

Explanation:

The laterite soil is reddish to yellow in color. It is typically found in hot and wet tropical areas. The soil exhibit a lower concentration of nitrogen, potassium, lime, phosphorus and magnesia. But soil contains high concentration of oxides of iron, manganese and titanium. It is not suitable for agriculture as the soil lacks essential elements required for the growth of crops like nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus. The soil is suitable for making bricks.

On the basis of the above explanation, c. they are very productive agriculturally is not true for laterite soils.

You've just read a research project titled: "Prolonged cell phone use causes brain tumors."

kvasek [131]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B) number of patients with brain tumors</em>

Explanation:

In a scientific experiment, an independent variable is a variable which is being changed by the scientist or changes naturally. The effect of the independent variable is studied on another variable which is termed as the dependent variable. Hence, the dependent variable can be described as the variable which is under study in a scientific experiment.

In the following scenario, as the effect of prolonged cell phones is being tested on causing brain tumors hence, the number of patients with brain tumors will be the dependent variable.

Cell Division Homework #1 Introduction to Cell Division Directions: Compare and contrast the following pairs of terms:

wel

Answer:

Sister chromatids / centromeres: When a single chromosome has been replicated in copies, each copy is called a sister chromatids.

A special part of the chromosome called the centromere holds the two sister chromatids together. A centromere is like a built-in rubber band for two sister chromosomes.

Mother cell / daughter cell: identical.

Daughter cells are genetically identical to the mother cell at the stage of production through mitosis.

On the other hand, at the stage of production through meiosis, the daughter cells are genetically different and contain only half of the genetic material of the mother cell.

Interphase / cell division: A cell spends most of its time in what is called interphase, and during this time it grows,

replicates its chromosomes, and prepare for cell division.

The cell then leaves Interphase, undergoes mitosis, and completes its division.

DNA / chromosome: Genes are segments of deoxyirbonucleic acid (DNA) that contain the code for specific protein that functions in one or more types of cell in the body

Chromosomes are structures within cells that contains a person's genes. Genes are contained in chromosomes, which are in the cell nucleus.

Mitosis / cytokinesis: Basically, mitosis is a process by which the duplicated genome in a cell is separated into halves that are identical in nature.

Cytokinesis is the process where the cytoplasm of the cell divides to form two 'daughter' cells. The result is the formation of two 'daughter cells', each having a nucleus.
