Answer:

A. Uniformitarianism

Explanation:

The principle of Uniformitarianism was proposed by a Scottish Geologist, James Hutton.

The principle is simply stated as "the present is the key to the past".

The processes that have occurred in geologic past is still in play today. By looking at rock sequences in our present day, we can actually have a firm grasp of the processes they have undergone in the past.

What is the purpose of the folded inner membrane in mitochondria
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Increase the membrane surface area which creates more work space

Explanation:

Mitochondrion (Plural-mitochondria) is referred to as the powerhouse the the cell because it is the site of ATP (energy rich compound) synthesis in the cell. Mitochondria are shaped perfectly to maximize their productivity. They are made of two membranes; the outer membrane, which sheds the organnelle and contains it like a skin and the inner membrane, which folds over many times and creates a layered invagination called CRISTAE.

The folding of the inner membrane increases the membrane surface area inside the organnelle. Since many of the chemical reactions e.g. Cellular respiration (ETC and Chemiosmosis) occur in the inner membrane, the increased surface area creates more space for the reactions to occur.

It is just reasonable that the more the space, the more the work that can be done.

Antibiotics are routinely introduced into the food of cattle, chickens and other livestock, which causes the animals to grow fas
nevsk [136]

Answer:

Antibiotics are routinely introduced into the food of cattle, chickens and other livestock, which causes the animals to grow faster but the negative effect of using antibiotics is the development of antibiotic- resistant bacteria.

When we use antibiotics at large scale some bacteria that live in these cattle become resistance to these antibiotics and then these resistant bacteria are shed in the soil through poop of animals.  

Bacteria have the capability to transfer antibiotic-resistant genes to other bacteria by horizontal gene transfer mechanism so it can give rise to more antibiotic-resistant bacteria which can infect humans.

So when these resistant bacteria infect humans then if we take the antibiotics which the bacteria are resistant for then the antibiotic will not able to protect the patient.  

Therefore, this practice could affect the probability of developing populations of antibiotic-resistant bacteria that cause human disease.

What does the owl pellet reveal about the owl's digestive system?
liq [111]
<span>The food goes to the proventriculus where digestive enzymes break down the meal.Owl stomach acid is weak so they only digest soft tissue of prey, not bones or fur. The food moves to the gizzard where usable substances get used by the body and indigestible parts remain in the gizzard.
