1. Radiation - energy transmits through particles that ionize. Conduction - heat is transferred through a substance without moving the material. Convection - transfer of heat through movement.
2. Earth receives energy from the sun, which is transferred between Earth and its atmosphere.
3.<span>Wildland fires, dust storms, and volcanic activity. They release CO2, CH4, N20, and sulfur dioxide.</span>
4. Burning coal, releases carbon dioxide and other pollutants. Gasoline, releases air pollution. Factories, releases carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide.
Answer:
What information on a pedigree can tell you whether a gene is on a autosome or not a sex chromosome? If in a pedigree, the occurrence of the disorder is 50/50 between females and males, then it shows that it is autosomal. If the disorder is mostly shown in males then it is a sex-linked trait.
Explanation:
The correct answer is multiple sclerosis.
The MS or multiple sclerosis refers to a demyelinating disorder in which the insulating envelopes of the nervous tissues in the spinal cord and the brain get destructed.
This destruction disturbs the tendency of the components of the nervous system to interact, leading to an array of symptoms and signs, involving mental, physical, and on certain occasions psychiatric issues.
Answer:
Explanation:
Molecular biology has enabled the identification of the mechanisms whereby inactive myostatin increases skeletal muscle growth in double-muscled (DM) animals. Myostatin is a secreted growth differentiation factor belonging to the transforming growth factor-β superfamily. Mutations make the myostatin gene inactive, resulting in muscle hypertrophy. The relationship between the different characteristics of DM cattle are defined with possible consequences for livestock husbandry. The extremely high carcass yield of DM animals coincides with a reduction in the size of most vital organs. As a consequence, DM animals may be more susceptible to respiratory disease, urolithiasis, lameness, nutritional stress, heat stress and dystocia, resulting in a lower robustness. Their feed intake capacity is reduced, necessitating a diet with a greater nutrient density. The modified myofiber type is responsible for a lower capillary density, and it induces a more glycolytic metabolism. There are associated changes for the living animal and post-mortem metabolism alterations, requiring appropriate slaughter conditions to maintain a high meat quality. Intramuscular fat content is low, and it is characterized by more unsaturated fatty acids, providing healthier meat for the consumer. It may not always be easy to find a balance between the different disciplines underlying the livestock husbandry of DM animals to realize a good performance and health and meat quality.
