A negative result of monoculture farming is a decrease in mineral nutrients in soil.

<u>Explanation:</u>

When only one type of crop or plant variety is grown in a farming land at a certain period of time, it refers to Mono culture. It is a farming technique that is used industrial and also in organic way of farming.  It is an efficient way for harvesting a particular species based on the season that supports their growth. The same way it also has disadvantages too. It can introduce many number of diseases and pests in the farming land.  

The process of planting and harvesting the same plant variety in an area over a period of time will lead to the removal of nutrients that are present in that particular area. This is because the all the plants will be dependent on the same type of nutrients present in the soil and they will take that type abundantly. This will result in the eradication of that nutrient type from the soil resulting in making the soil very weak. Hence that farm area will not be suitable for growing other crops in a healthier way. This will lead to the use of fertilizers by the farmers that will again eradicate the soil nutrients.

Monosaccharides are the most basic form of carbohydrates. Monosaccharides can be linked together to form long, compact chains ca
Kruka [31]

Polysaccharide formation allows organism to store energy efficiently. The storage form of food in animals is glycogen and in plants it is starch. Both glycogen and starch are polysaccharides of glucose. Many glucose units are linked together by condensation reaction to form polysaccharide. Compared to having several molecules of glucose in a bulk it is better to store it in the form of condensed bulk i.e polysaccharide. Thus polysaccharides which are formed by condensation reaction i.e by the loss of water molecules are easy to store.

Polysacchrides are: a) stored in the form of condensed bulk

b) they are chemically non-reactive

c) they are osmolytically inactive

Step 1: drag the lac promoter to the stretch of dna. do not drag the lacz gene to the dna. what happens? why is this?
Marat540 [252]

RNA polymerase binds to the lac promoter and begins transcribing the stretch of DNA to messenger RNA. Therefore, in other words, the stretch of DNA is expressed. The DNA sequence of the lac promoter 'signals' where the RNA polymerase will bind and where transcription will begin. Promoters are found upstream of a gene to be transcribed.

When food moves through the esophagus, the muscular contractions are wave-like. nutrients are absorbed in the esophagus. skeleta
sveticcg [70]

The answers are;

The muscular contractions are wave-like

The muscular contractions are entirely involuntary

This action is called peristalsis. It is powered by the expansion and contraction of the smooth muscles present in the esophagus. It is controlled by the sympathetic activity of the autonomic nervous system hence the movements are involuntary.

If the plant absorbs 50 kcals of energy units, how much energy will the mushroom get from hawk that ate mouse that ate plants.
irakobra [83]
The mushroom will get 0.05 kcals of energy units in the end. This is because at each level, you only pass on 10% of the energy, which then results in the mushroom getting only 0.05 kcals by the end.
