The initial test results of an EPA study in 1989 and 1990 were not conclusive about the value of biostimulation of indigenous mi

crobes and about the use of exogenous bacteria for remediation. In contrast, a later field study in Delaware reached the following conclusions:a. Biostimulation can slow down hydrocarbon removal. b. Exogenous bacteria outcompete indigenous bacteria. c. Biostimulation can accelerate hydrocarbon removal. d. Addition of exogenous bacteria leads to faster hydrocarbon cleanup than biostimulation.

<h2>The correct answer is (C).</h2>

Explanation:

  • Biostimulation can accelerate Hydrocarbon removal.
  • Biostimulation includes the adjustment of nature to animate existing microscopic organisms fit for bioremediation.
  • This should be possible by expansion of different types of rate constraining supplements and electron acceptors, for example, phosphorus, nitrogen, oxygen, or carbon (for example as molasses).
  • Then again, remediation of halogenated contaminants in anaerobic conditions might be animated by including electron benefactors (natural substrates), in this manner permitting indigenous microorganisms to utilize the halogenated contaminants as electron acceptors.

The graphs below show the changes in crab color at one beach from 1950 to 1990.
xxMikexx [17]

The change in crab color is an example of Disruptive selection because two extreme colors were preferred over the more moderate color. Thus, the correct option for this question is D.

<h3>What is Natural selection?</h3>

Natural selection may be defined as the selection of a few individuals from any given population according to their favorable variations.

Disruptive selection occurs when environmental conditions changes in two different directions. Due to which variance increases in population.  

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Other than to determine evolutionary relationships, what are molecular clocks used for?
ra1l [238]

Given what we know, we can confirm that molecular clocks are also used to help classify organisms.

<h3>Why are they used to classify organisms?</h3>

Molecular clocks can be used to help classify organisms by providing a context for the development of that organism. That is, they allow us to see the genetic history of evolution into that organism and to know to which organisms it is most closely related.

Therefore, we can confirm that molecular clocks are also used to help classify organisms.

A student performed an experiment with bags of dialysis tubing filled with distilled water to model the process of osmosis. Dial
Reil [10]

Answer:

Taking into account the principle of osmosis, the question that best addresses experimental design is  <em>How does the effect of environmental sucrose concentrations impact the  movement of water across a membrane?</em>

Explanation:

The experimental design of the student, made with dialysis bags and sucrose at different concentrations should recreate the principle of osmosis, of importance in living beings for organic homeostasis.

Osmosis consists of the movement of water - through a semi-permeable membrane - from a less concentrated solution to a higher concentration solution, following a gradient, to achieve balance.  

The student will observe in his experiment that water moves from the solution with less sucrose concentration to the higher concentration of sugar. Beakers with the highest concentration of sucrose will have the highest weight, due to the increase in liquid volume.

How does the effect of environmental sucrose concentrations impact the  movement of water across a membrane?

The experiment shows that:

  1. The water from the beaker with less sucrose concentration moved -through the dialysis tubes and the membrane- to the beaker containing the most concentrated sucrose.
  2. Different sucrose concentrations will attract different amounts of water, which influences the final weight of each container.

With this experiment the principle of osmosis is confirmed, where the concentration of a solute determines the amount of water that passes through a semipermeable membrane -following a concentration gradient- until equilibrium is reached.
