"Dissolved oxygen in seawater is used as an indicator of primary production (as its surrogate, so to speak) because the amount of molecular oxygen produced during photosynthesis is directly proportional to the amount of carbon fixed during photosynthesis, and determining the amount of dissolved oxygen is much easier to do."

How can mutations be helpful? Give 2 examples

RSB [31]

Having two copies of the mutated genes cause sickle cell anemia, but having just one copy does not, and can actually protect against malaria - an example of how mutations are sometimes beneficial.

The majority of mutations have neither negative nor positive effects on the organism in which they occur. These mutations are called neutral mutations. Examples include silent point mutations. They are neutral because they do not change the amino acids in the proteins they encode.

Hope this helped :)

Based on the formula for kinetic energy, how will the temperature change if you increase the average velocity of the molecules i

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Temperature will increase

Explanation:

As we know

$KE = \frac{2}{3} RT$

Where KE represents the Kinetic Energy, R represents the gas constant and T represents the temperature.

As the kinetic energy increases, the velocity of the gas molecules increases due to which the gas molecule start moving rapidly and hence exerts higher amount of force on the wall of the container in which it is kept.

The higher force leads to generation of higher pressure and hence the higher temperature.

PLS ANSWER QUICK What do you think would happen to each species if the water became too cloudy for sunlight to penetrate?

Vaselesa [24]

Answer: Turbidity blocks the sunlight that plants need to produce oxygen for fish and other aquatic life. ... One effect is an increase in rooted aquatic plants, since sunlight can now penetrate to greater depths.
