Explain how soil formation is helped by biotic components through primary succession.

Biology
1 answer:
Furkat [3]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Primary succession is a type of succession that occurs in an area with no previous community. It usually contains bare rocks, which are grown upon by certain living organisms (biotic components) called PIONEER SPECIES. These organisms, which include lichens and mosses, colonize the bare rocks and contribute to the formation of soil by the gradual disintegration of the rock particles.

These biotic components (living organism) also help to enrich the soil being formed as they add organic matter, which serve as nutrients, when they die and decompose. The actions of these living organisms on the formation of soil enables other organisms to easily colonize the area.

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Provides both the RNA and the polymerase needed for synthesis

Explanation:

Telomerase is an enzyme which extends the telomere sequences present at the end of the chromosomes. The telomerase enzyme acts as DNA polymerase as well as provides the RNA which serves as a template strand rather than the primer.

The polymerase acts as a reverse transcriptase enzyme and synthesizes the DNA strand from the  RNA template. Since the telomerase provides RNA and acts as DNA polymerase, therefore, it is known as the ribonucleoprotein molecule.

Thus, the selected option is correct.

The appropriate response is classical conditioning. It is a learning procedure that happens when two boosts are over and over combined; a reaction that is at first inspired by the second jolt is at the end evoked by the primary jolt alone. Classical conditioning is the essential learning procedure, and its neural substrates are presently starting to be caught on.

charle [14.2K]
Long ears have to be dominant:

If this IS true then these would be your 'parents':

L = long ears
l = curly ears

LL x ll

If you cross the homozygous recessive curly eared rabbit (ll) with homozygous dominant long eared rabbit (LL) you would get 100% Ll - all would look long eared.

ehidna [41]

Theory of natural selection by Charles Darwin explains the moth appearance in England. The theory of genetics describes this as a mere shift of trait due to environmental factors.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Peppered moths are the moths found in England from a long time ago. The environment before the industrial revolution was pure and pollution free, which led to the growth of the white variety of moths as they were able to camouflage better with the bark of the trees from their hunters. The white trait were the parents, and fertilization between the two recessive traits gave rise to the recessive traits only.

But with the industrial revolution, the pollution increased to a huge extent, leading to deposition of smokes and soot on trees bark where white variety of the white moths got easily recognizable. This led to the black moths which now can camouflage better. Thus the nature selected black variety over white variety for better survival, and the white variety reduced dramatically.
