clays are derived from the minerals in rocks by chemical decomposition. They are the end product of weathering . There are different families of clays depending on chemical composition and crystal structure and there are various clays in each family. Soils are mixtures of rocks, minerals, and clays. Like clays, soils are grouped but by texture and mineral composition rather than by chemistory and crystallography. Given enough time a soil may break down to one or more clays but a pure clay will never break down to soil.


This was a very loose description of the differences. If you need more specific information you should be able to find it using one of the internet search engines.

The difference between topsoil and garden soil is an even finer distinction than the difference between soil and dirt, and it has to do with the amount of organic matter, and to a lesser extent, the types of trace minerals and the ratio of clay, sand and silt. Garden soil is a category of topsoil

Selectivity in choosing a mates

Geographic barriers separating subpopulations.

Explanation:

Selectivity in choosing a mates is a factor in which individuals can mate with each other.

Geographic barriers separating subpopulations is another factor that make similar organism or individuals to mates.

When there is geographic separations or demarcation between individuals in a species and they are separated from other subpopulations .. They tend to mate with each other in the same geographic location and cannot mate with other subpopulations that is outside their own geographic location. These is common in animals.

Which of the following shows an incorrect digestion of a molecule into its components?A. Fat digested into fatty acids and glyce
muminat

Introduction to Biology: Biomolecules: Carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, nucleic acids.

The macromolecules such as nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and proteins can form<em> </em>polymers<em>,</em> which means that there is a chain of multiple basic units or monomers.

Proteins are chains of amino acids, nucleic acids are made of nucleotides, and the simplest carbohydrates are monosaccharides such as glucose or galactore.

On the other hand, lipids are very diverse hydrocarbons and include fatty acids, sterols, waxes, phospholipids, monoglycerides, diglycerides, and triglycerides.

Of the options, the one with an incorrect digestion is D, because a sugar or carbohydrate is not made of nucleic acids.

This means D. Sugar digested into nucleic acids would be the correct answer.
