The illustration below represents the global conveyor belt, which is a collection of ocean currents that cycle water around the

oceans.
What does the global conveyor belt reveal about the connectivity of water in the oceans? How could a change in the path of the global conveyor belt impact the biodiversity of ocean ecosystems?

Answer: Global oceanic conveyor belt refers to the continuous motion of the water in the ocean due to the variation of temperature and salinity condition. The hot less dense saline water gets heated up in the equatorial region and travels towards a higher latitude i.e to the poles. This water when reaches higher latitudes, gets mixed up with the polar water becoming more denser saline water and gets sink below the ocean and travels back towards the south of the equator. During this process the water loses its heat into the atmosphere. This constant motion of water in both the hemisphere is overall known as the global oceanic conveyor Belt.

             Due to the existence of Coriolis force and the rotation of earth from eastern to the western side, the ocean currents moves in a clockwise direction in the northern hemisphere and anticlockwise in the southern hemisphere.

             The path of this ocean current movement is directly related to the biodiversity of the ecosystem in ocean. Change in its path would lead to a different pressure, temperature scenerio, which could be catastrophic in nature. It will affect the lives existing in ocean and because of higher salinity some species might not be able to adopt that environment.

What determines the structure and function of a proteins?
mote1985 [20]

The function of a protein is determined by its shape. The shape of a protein is determined by its primary structure (sequence of amino acids). The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the gene (DNA) encoding it.

If a bacteria cannot ferment glucose, why not test its ability to ferment other carbohydrates?
nalin [4]

If a bacteria cannot ferment glucose, then we do not test its ability to ferment other carbohydrates because the glucose is monosaccharides, the bacteria required enzymes that used to ferment glucose.

Bacteria cannot ferment carbohydrates because carbohydrates may include non-reducing sugar like sucrose and lactose, which is disaccharide, that must be cleaved into monosaccharides. Not all, bacteria can do this to may or may not ferment sucrose.

Many microorganism can grow in the base broth without the carbohydrates, but if they can ferment a sugar that is available. It is possible that one bacteria metabolize some sugar but can't work on other.

if the velocity of a vehicle starting from rest reaches 5m/2s in 2seconds, is the velocity of the vehicle uniform ?explain.​
Vanyuwa [196]

Explanation:

Avg speed × total times = total distance

20×25=500

Since acceleration in the 1st interval is same as deceleration in the 3rd interval and deceleration is from the same velocity achieved after acceleration, t
