Describe how gas is extracted from rocks using the hydraulic fracturing method.

Biology

Sidana [21]3 years ago
7 0
During the hydraulic fracturing extraction, a rock is fractured using liquid that is under high pressure, and the liquid is usually water with other additives such as sand or aluminum. You shoot this into a crack and it expands the crack until the rock breaks, and this lets the gas flow more freely. The additives prevent the crack from closing.

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Because DNA molecules are extremely long.

Explanation:

DNA molecule is made up of only four types of nucleotides that are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. These four types of nucleotide encode all the information necessary for the formation and working of the entire organism because each DNA strand is as long as 2 meter which contains millions of base pairs.

The four nucleotides are arranged in the DNA strand with many different combinations which results in the formation of codons sequence that contains all the information about the cell. This long DNA is compressed several times to fit in the nucleus.
