Answer:

B)no

Explanation:

Sustainable use of water means use of water to fulfil various human needs for water without having any negative impact on the environment.

The sustainable use of water allows a minimum of 20 to 50 litres of daily water per person to fulfil their water needs, that means 600 litres maximum per person per year but in the given situation the city uses 25,000 litres of water per person per year.

<u>This shows that people in the city are not using water sustainably which is causing a fall in precipitation.</u>

Hence, the correct answer is "No".

el electrophoresis is normally set up with the negative electrode at the top of the gel and the positive electrode at the bottom
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The DNA will still move towards the positive electrode

Explanation:

Gel electrophoresis is a technique which is used by the molecular biologist to separate the fragments of DNA. In the procedure, a DNA sample of a particular concentration of DNA sample composed of a particular length of DNA is loaded into the samples.

The gel is usually set up with the positive electrode at the bottom and negative at the top which by mistake when placed at the bottom and positive at the top.

The DNA will still move from the DNA wells towards the positive side as the DNA moves in the gel as the DNA posses negative charge due to phosphate groups they have and therefore move towards the positive electrode (opposite charge always).

Thus, the DNA will still move towards the positive electrode is correct.

What does it mean when someone gets “tubes put in their ears”? Where are they put? Why?
Neko [114]
I'll try to explain, because I've had tubes before.  In fact, I still have them.

For me, tubes were put in because of too many ear infections, and excessive water in my ear.  The tube helped drain the water out.  You can see A picture I have in a file.  The tubes can be put I believe in the ear drum.  They're put there to help drain water that has trouble getting out on its own.
