Answer:

Darwin observed farmers performed selective breeding ( also termed as artificial selection) that includes selection of good breeds of animals ( having desirable traits) which were first selected through natural selection.

Farmers  allowed them to interbreed so that desirable traits accumulated in the hybrid organisms. This increased the overall yield or productivity of animals ( such as good milk yield from cows).

The farmers kept the animals with desirable traits and sold those that lacked the traits. This eventually led to the improvement of their own stock.

1. Compare and contrast ATP and NADH.
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Glycolysis produces 4 ATP molecules, giving it a net gain of 2 ATP molecules. The four high energy electrons that are removed by glycolysis are picked by an electron carrier called NAD. NAD becomes NADH.As it spins it grabs an ADP molecule and attaches a phosphate, forming high energy ATP.

Explanation:

Both NADPH and ATP are phosphorylated compounds, both are very important catabolic as well as anabolic processes. To explain the difference, their respective functions/roles in biochemical processes should be described along with relevant chemical properties.

ATP (Adenosine triphospahte) is called an energy rich molecule because of the large negative free energy of its hydrolysis (And has nothing to do with high bond energy).

30.5 kilo Joules or 7.3 kilo calorie energy is liberated after hydrolysis of one ATP molecule to form ADP (Adenosine diphosphate) and phosphate.The reaction is almost irreversible

What are three species that can be raised (farmed) to take pressure off ocean species?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

Seaweeds, shrimps, salmon

Explanation:

The rapid increase in the human population day by day has led to the increased usage of marine plants and animals. Due to this, the population f some marine plants and animals is declining to threatening levels.

To overcome his problem, scientists have devised the method of mariculture. This technique involves raising aquatic plants and animals in artificial lakes or ponds containing salty water just like in the oceans.

Some of these plants and animals are:

  1. Sea weeds: People might think that they do not consume sea weeds but it is actually present in most of our daily use products like toothpaste, ice creams and even in some automobiles. Many people from the world consume sea weeds as food. Hence, they are being raised in maricultures.
  2. Shrimps: Shrimps are favourite sea food among many people belonging to different areas. Hence, there population is declining due to which they need to be raised artificially.
  3. Salmon: The salmon is a kind of fish common to almost every nation. Hence, to meet the demands of people they need to be produced in maricultures.

Plants use cellulose to build strong structures. what is cellulose made of? -proteins linked together -DNA molecules -lipids bon
Anna11 [10]
Cellulose is a straight chain polysaccharide which is made up of glucose molecules that are joined together by beta 1,4 glycosidic bonds. Cellulose is the principal structural material of plants and plants use it to build strong structures. For instances, the rigid cell wall of plant cells is made up of cellulose.
Thus, the correct option is D.

A nurse is exposed to hepatitis c and receives a shot of gamma globulin. what type of immunity does this nurse have?
Sonbull [250]
This is called passive immunity. Passive in such a way that the vaccine came from another human blood plasma which contains antibodies that temporarily combats disease-causing virus/bacteria. Vaccination with gamma globulin transiently boosts patient's immunity against illnesses or diseases.
