___ deposition can cause dead or dying lakes and forests.

Biology
1 answer:
Studentka2010 [4]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Acid

Explanation:

Dead of dying lakes can be caused due to acid deposition. Acid deposition often termed as acid rain is the precipitation of acidic components like sulfuric or nitric acid in wet or dry form.

As the components in the deposition are acidic, when they come in contact with a lake, the acid content dissolves in the water and now the water of that lake become more acidic than normal. This causes a change in pH of the water in lake. As living organisms are sensitive to adverse pH changes, the acidic pH causes destruction of lives in the lake.

Plants are also living organism so they have also a range of pH optimum for their survival. Due to the acid rain the leaves for the plants get damaged and also the water that they absorb becomes acidic than normal so their normal physiology is affected.

Sophie [7]

Answer:

C.  Cnidarian tentacles have stinging cells, but Bryozoan tentacles are covered with cilia.

Explanation:

Cnidaria and Bryozoan, both teh phylum are classified under kingdom Animalia that contain aquatic animals found both in freshwater and marine environments.

They both use tentacles for feeding but there is diffference between there tentacles and feeding process.

Cnidarians tentacles are conist of stinging cells in the tips, which are called cnidocytes and a coiled thread-like stinger, called nematocyst. These stinging cells and nematocyst helps to capture and subdue prey. They feed over plankton or animals larger then them.

Bryozoan tentacles are covered with cilia and form an "O" or "U" shaped fold called lophophore, which helps to feed by sweeping the surrounding water. They generally feed on plankton, nudibranchs (sea slugs) and sea spiders.

Hence, the correct option is C.

If a particular gene is located on the Z chromosome of this lizard species, describe why a lizard with a ZW genotype has a great
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

ZZ species will take more number of crosses to produce a recessive offspring.

Explanation:

Here Z seems to be the dominant allele.  A species having ZZ or homozygous dominant genotype shall not express the recessive phenotype until unless it has both recessive allele and this is not possible as of now or is dependent on the genotype of mating species and the number of generations of development.

If ZZ mates with WW, the offspring in F1 generation will have genotype ZW

However, if the offspring in the F1 generation are crossed then in next generation we could see organism with recessive phenotype i,e WW

ZW*ZW

ZZ, ZW, ZW, WW

While in case of organism having ZW type genotype, recessive phenotype will occur in the first generation cross with the ZW.
