Answer:
First
Explanation:
Apex predators like barn owls generally occupy the highest trophic level in any food chain, although this is somewhat open to interpretation.
Question:
Which of the following actions could prevent mass-movement disasters?(a)constructing building and roads in stream drainage paths
(b)removing trees from steep slopes
(c)educating people about the advantages of building on steep slopes
(d)digging a series of trenches to divert water around a slope
<u>Answer</u>:
"Digging a series of trenches to divert water around a slope" could prevent mass-movement disasters
<u>Explanation</u>:
The trenches are made of 12 to 15 inches in width and at least 6-8 inches depth, can help in normal drainage problem. But in long, steep slopes and areas receiving heavy rainfall, digging of trenches is more advisable. It prevents the tripping over and falling down of people, it protects the runoff of edges and also collapsing. These trenches should be filled with coarse gravel or may be small stones. In the final labelling one or two inch of fine gravel or coarse sand. It will make the surface level which will allow the water to seep down.
The ultimate source of energy for plants is the sun. Sunlight is one of the main components of photosynthesis.
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
<em>The discovery of Gram staining has revolutionized how microbes, especially bacteria, are classified. Bacteria that are positive for Gram staining are classified as Gram-positive while those that are negative to the procedure are termed Gram-negative.</em>
What constitutes positivity or negativity to the Gram staining procedure is the ability of the cell walls of bacteria to either retain a dye or allow it to be washed off during the procedure. The components of the cell wall differentiate Gram-positive bacteria from the Gram-negative ones and confer the ability to retain dye on the former. Gram-positive bacteria have thick peptidoglycan cell walls and lower lipid contents as compared to the Gram-negative bacteria and with this, they are able to retain the color of the stain used during the Gram staining procedure.
During the Gram staining, a scoop of the bacterial isolate is usually smeared and heat-fixed to a glass slide. Thereafter, crystal violet drops are added to the slide, poured off, and then rinsed with water. A few drops of iodine are then added and allowed to stay for a few seconds before being poured off and rinsed. A decolorizer (an alcohol) is then added to the slide, allowed to stay for a few seconds before it is washed off. The addition of a counterstain follows and the slide is allowed to stay for another few seconds before the stain is washed off. The slide is then rid of water and then viewed under the microscope. <u>A Gram-positive bacterium will able to retain the color of the dye which is purple</u> while a <u>negative bacterium will lose the color of the dye and appear red under the microscope</u>.
Answer:
A. Tissue
Explanation:
The cells join together to form tissues. So, option (A) is the correct answer.
