This type of fossil is called a mold. A cast fossil forms when a mold fossil is filled with some form of mineral, usually through the seepage of water depositing the minerals within the mold. In time, the mold is filled and the materials deposited harden, creating a replica of the original fossil.

Hope this helps you :p

Why are pigments such as chlorophyll needed for photosynthesis
Vlad [161]

Answer:

The chlorophyll pigment have photosystem 680/ PS I which captures the sunlight. Then the pigments gets excited and photosynthesis starts. Without chlorophyll photosynthesis can't happen.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis occurs in the chlorophyll pigment of the plant. They have the capacity to trap light energy and convert its energy to form glucose and oxygen.  

The chlorophyll is a double layer membrane structure. In it two photosystems works i.e. photosystem I and photosystem II. In the photosystem I light is trapped.  

In the chlorophyll thylakoids are present which have photosystem 680. It captures the photons coming from the sun. The photons are the light of different wavelengths which are absorbed by plants.  

The photon have more energy, and when it comes in contact with PS 680, the pigments get excited. Then they release high energy electrons which helps to form ATP, NADPH. Because it is a light dependent reaction.

Glucose and oxygen are formed in the stroma as it does not require light. It is a light independent reaction.

Therefore, chlorophyll is first require to capture photons coming from sun.

After the experiment the students noticed that the potato stick with the lowest mass was soft and floppy. Explain why the potato
Savatey [412]

Answer:

When a potato chip is put into salt water, the potato cells become flaccid (soft and floppy). This is because there is a higher concentration of water molecules inside the potato cells than outside. If more water enters the cell, it becomes turgid. This is important in supporting plants.

Are you concerned about the threat of zoonotic diseases? Why or why not?
expeople1 [14]

Answer: There should be concern because zoonotic diseases passes from an animal or insect to a human very easily, and although they do not always represent a danger, they can cause serious symptoms and even death.

Explanation:

Zoonotic diseases are caused by microorganisms such as bacteria, virus, parasites and fungi, and they can be transmitted between animals and humans. Some examples of zoonotic diseases are Brucellosis, Anthrax and Rocky Mountain Fever (rickettsiosis)

Sometimes, people with zoonotic infections can get very sick and have symptoms such as fever, diarrhea, muscle pain and others. While in other cases, people may have no symptoms and never get sick, without representing a risk . <u>Besides being important because they can make many people sick, we have to take into account that the way of transmission or propagation can be very simple.</u> Food can be a source of zoonotic infections, for example when farm animals re infected with parasites and these animals are consumed as food. Another example is when people get trichinosis by eating undercooked meat, or consuming fruit without washing it properly, or raw meat from animals infected with the Trichinella parasite.  Also, people can get the parasites swimming in a lake if they accidentally swallow water contaminated with the feces of infected animals. Besides, pets can have parasites and pass them on to people, and wild animals can also have infection from parasites that can infect people.

Therefore, we must be concerned about zoonotic diseases, since they can be transmitted very easily from animals to humans, and although they do not always represent a danger, they can cause serious symptoms and even death.
