Answer:

Answer is option A.

reservoir - penstock - turbine - generator - transformer - electrical lines

Explanation :

The most important parts of a hydroelectric power plant are the dam and the reservoir. The dam which is built on a large river, has a reservoir placed behind it to store water. The height of the water in the reservoir is directly proportional to the maximum possible potential energy from the water. The penstock is a long pipe or shaft which transfer the water from the reservoir to the power generation unit.  Thus the water in the penstock has potential energy due to its height and kinetic energy due to its motion. The power generation unit contains turbines and generator. This water falls on the blades of the turbine which causes the blades to rotate. Thus the kinetic and potential energy of water is converted into the rotational motion of the turbine blades. The rotating blades causes the rotational motion of the turbine shaft, which is enclosed inside the generator where the electricity is produced. The rotational motion of the turbine shaft inside the generator generates magnetic field which is converted into alternating current by electromagnetic field induction. The transformer converts this electricity into a higher voltage which is then fed into power lines for distribution.

Borders are still guarded zealously and fought for - via wars when required and when not required in equal measure. I see nations fighting
 over water  that preciously scarce resource of the future. I see that terrorists still abound - the Osama Bin Laden types still roam the Earth terrorizing countries and peoples with newer weapons and newer methods of instilling terror. I see that the United States is no longer the sole superpower of the world -- the most powerful country on Earth. I see the most powerful countries dominating the world as being China, India, Brazil and Russia in that order. I see that China and India have become the equivalent of the US and the erstwhile Soviet Union - fighting another Cold War between them and competing for resources and influence around the world.

Answer:

We could feed them with another type of food free of silver salts.

Explanation:

When talking about a phenocopy, we are referring to individuals who genotypically should be expressing a determined phenotype, but due to environmental influence, they express another phenotype. This is a non-inheritable phenotype, so it is not considered a mutation.

If we grow thy flies feeding them another type of food that does not include silver salts, and let them mate and reproduce, they will express the real phenotype, because they will not be influenced by the food. In the following generation, there will be dark individuals carrying the dominant allele, and yellow individuals, with the recessive genotype.
