A population of sagebrush lives in a grassland ecosystem. Over several years, erosion causes the soil of the grassland to have a

n increasing amount of sand in it. The data below was collected by scientists studying the ecosystem.
Year Percentage of
Sand in Soil Average Height of
Sagebrush (meters) Number of
Sagebrush Plants
1 38 1.15 120
2 42 1.16 129
3 45 1.14 137
4 51 1.15 145

If the soil is 53% sand next year, which of the following statements is the most likely prediction?
A.
The average height of the sagebrush will decrease.
B.
The average height of the sagebrush will increase.
C.
The size of the sagebrush population will increase.

I might be concerned about the milk because it has been modified, but If the cow is completely healthy, than the milk should be fine, too.  My only concerns would be if the genetic modifying might effect the milk in a strange way.

How is electricity generated in the simulation?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

(LONG RESPONSE!)

In this work, several simulations and analyses are carried out to investigate the feasibility of generating electricity from underwater sea currents at Istanbul Bosphorus Strait. Bosphorus is a natural canal which forms a border between Europe and Asia by connecting Black Sea and Marmara Sea. The differences in elevation and salinity ratios between these two seas cause strong marine currents. Depending on the morphology of the canal the speed of the flow varies and at some specific locations the energy intensity reaches to sufficient levels where electricity generation by marine current turbines becomes economically feasible.

In this study, several simulations are performed for a 10 MW marine turbine farm/cluster whose location is selected by taking into account several factors such as the canal morphology, current speed and passage of vessels. 360 different simulations are performed for 15 different virtual sea states. Similarly, 8 different configurations are analyzed in order to find the optimum spacing between the turbines. Considering the spatial variations in the current speed within the selected region, the analyses are performed for three different flow speeds corresponding to ±10% change in the average value. For each simulation the annual energy yield and cluster efficiency are calculated.

Live cultures of bacillus thuringiensis (dipel) and
sammy [17]

These bacillus thuringensis species of bacteria secrete protein crystals that are toxic to most insects hence used in agriculture to kill pests that attack the crops. This is also the reason the genes responsible for this protein crystal is incorporated in crops (transgenic crops) to make them resistant to pests.

B. subtilis is important in the nutrient cycle and availing nutrient to plants hence promote plant growth

Both species are able to survive harsh conditions and remain dormant for long periods of time as spores hence their suitability in application in agriculture
