Answer: A. It illustrates the cycling of matter just like in a natural ecosystem

Explanation:

An ecosystem is a biotic community in which the biotic or living factors interact with their physical non living environment which includes the abiotic factors like soil, rocks, water, wind and sunlight.

In the given situation the model includes soil, rocks, water, plants and animals inside the bottle this describes the relationship between the abiotic and biotic factors in an ecosystem. This shows that a proper cycling of matter generated by one living organism will be transferred by the process of food chain and by biogeochemical cycling of inorganic and organic nutrients like carbon, nitrogen and others that involves water and soil as physical agents. On the basis of this A. It illustrates the cycling of matter just like in a natural ecosystem.

you are a biochemist working for a pharmaceutical company. you have been tasked with identifying a sample of nucleic acid. it is
Lorico [155]

The sample that is being discussed in the problem can be either DNA or RNA.

DNA and RNA are both very important molecules. Both of these hold immense value in biology since they store all the vital information required for living. The basic structures of the two are quite similar; the only difference is that DNA is double-stranded while RNA has a single strand.

DNA and RNA molecules both contain a five-carbon sugar (ribose), a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. Except for cytosine, guanine, and adenine, the fourth part is the phosphate group that exists in both. RNA has Uracil while DNA has Thymine.

Since it has not been mentioned here what the fourth part might be, the sample might be a DNA or an RNA molecule.

True or false, most lakes grow larger over time due to erosion?
ipn [44]

Answer: False

A lake is a water body that is surrounded by land. The water in the lake comes from melting glaciers, rain, groundwater, rivers. Lake formation also occurs when a water body is restricted to it's natural flow. Erosion due to wind  and water will limit the life of lake. As, soil removed during landslides or mudslides from hills or mountains get settled as debris at the bottom of lake will cause water pollution. Also, soil coming from agricultural field through water will carry in it fertilizers ,which will promote excessive plant and algal growth in lakes therefore, oxygen content of lake water will decrease which lead to death of animals residing in lake hence, will ultimately lead to water pollution ,which will be responsible for limiting the life of lake.

hichkok12 [17]

<u>Answer</u>:

In order to remove the lens from a dissected eye, First, we should cut suspensory ligaments through sclera .

<u>Explanation</u>:

“Suspensory Ligament” is a 'ligament' that supports any part of the body, specially an organ. In case of eye, suspensory ligament of lens connects 'ciliary' of eye with the lens. Sclera is the “white portion” of the “eye ball” containing collagen and fibre. It maintains the “shape” of the eye. Sclera helps the eyes from any kind of serious damage. 'Suspensory ligaments' also help in moving the eyeball that is attached to the sclera.

To remove the lens from dissected eye, we should first cut suspensory ligaments through sclera.
