What are TWO REASONS why the terrestrial planets formed closer to the Sun after the supernova event that initiated the formation

of the solar system?
A.) They are made of denser objects, which can condense at relatively high temperatures.

B.) They contain lightweight materials that condense in areas of relatively low radiation.

C.) They are made of heavier elements, which have a stronger gravitational attraction to the Sun.

D.) They are relatively small in size, so the Sun’s gravity has a strong influence on them.

E.) They have gaseous surfaces, which is ideal in those areas of high radiation near the Sun.

Answer:

A & C

Explanation:

During creation of the solar system, the materials with  higher melting and boiling point within the nebulae were able to coalesce close to the sun because they are less volatile. These materials also happen to be denser. Denser materials have more mass and therefore pulled on more by the gravitational forces of the sun. The more volatile material such as gases was able to coalesce further from the sun –where the gases can cool below boiling and melting points-  to form the gas giants such as Jupiter.

If one genotype in a genetically variable population is favored in dry years and a different genotype is favored in wet years, G
12345 [234]

Answer:

Genetic variation is always maintained.

Explanation:

One would think that the part of the population that is not favored in dry years would die and thus reduce the genetic variation but this is not likely to occur, otherwise all the population would die because some individuals would die in wet years and some in dry years. In reality they are able to survive in the transition from dry to humid years or viceversa. Actually, this variability that results from their genetic variability in their adaptability to changes in the climate is what keeps the population alive and able to thrive as time passes.

Describe and explain the importance of the changes to corn.
bekas [8.4K]

Answer no 1)

Corn is a cereal grain which was first known to be domesticated by the people of south Mexico. Corn has been produced since then over the world due to many useful properties which it possesses. It is not only used as a food source but is also being used a fuel as corn ethanol. Nowadays, corn is being genetically modified to enhance its characteristics.

Answer No 2)

Plant domestication was important because it led to the development of agriculture. It allowed for the various techniques to be developed which were used in agriculture for better crop production.

Answer No 3)

Domestication can be described as a process for breeding certian plants and animals at home. Domestication allowed the animal species to be taken more care of and those species with better traits were interbred to produce offsprings with better traits. This allowed to increase the genetic diversity of the domesticated animals.

Answer No 4)

Selective breeding can be described as a process in which organisms of species having better characteristics are inter bred so that offsprings with better characteristics can be produced. This technique is very useful in domestication and agriculture.

Answer No 5)

Sedentism is a term which is used for describing the practise of living in one place for a long period of time. Before the process of domestication and agriculture, people moved from one place to another continuously. But certain factors caused sedentism which were:

1) domestication: Domestication made people to not move from one area to another as they had to take care of their plants and animals.

2) Agriculture: Domestication allowed agriculture to take place. People did not move because they had to take care of their crops.

3) Property: As the processes of domestication and agriculture increased, people started making properties like houses and it became more problematic for them to leave their homes after this process. Hence, the settled down.

Answer No 6)

By the processes of hunting and gathering, the early farmers came to know about the variety of plants and animals. They came to know that which plants would beneficial to grow and which animals were harmless for domestication. Their knowledge about plants such as herbal plants, food plants were later beneficial to early farmers.

Answer No 7)

Agriculture innovations can be considered as biotechnology because the phenomenon of selective breeding was applied to produce plants with better characteristics. Agricultural biotechnology also tends to produce plants with better qualities by manipulating their genome. Hence, agricultural innovations such as selective breeding can be considered to be a part of biotechnology or ancient biotechnology.

Answer No 8)

Sedentism was beneficial in a way that it allowed humans to settle in a place but their were certain drawbacks. Some of them are:

1) the area where the farmers settled could produce only certain types of crops.

2) If a disaster situation occurred, such as a pesticide then it wood infect all the crops and hence all crops would be destroyed.

Biotechnology enable to produce crops which are disease resistant or pest resistant. It also enable to produce crops in better varieties of quality and quantity.

Answer No 9)

Bakewell was an agriculturist who introduced the techniques of selective breeding and to improve the qualities of domesticated animals. Selective breeding can be considered as ancient biotechnology. In future, biotechnology was implied to produce plants and animals with better characteristics just like selective breeding.

Answer No 10)

Agriculture led to technological and biotechnological innovations so that the increasing demand for food resources can be met. As novel technologies, such as biotechnology, produce better varieties of crops hence their discovery led to the enhancement of agricultural field.

Which is the role of restriction enzymes?
dezoksy [38]
Restriction enzymes and or restriction endonucleases are involved at recognizing specific sequence of nucleotides and cutting or splicing them at appropriate regions to produce fragments that can either be sticky ends or blunt ends depending on where they cut and the nature of nucleotides involved within the fragments. They play an important role in genetic engineering, as geneticists can use them for placing into extra chromosomal information and or content of plasmids in certain bacteria, from other sources, for instance antibiotics, grow and or produce many individual colonies of bacteria, isolate them and one would have many sequences for instance that can code for an antibiotic that can be extracted and used further. Assuming the bacteria's plasmid can take in that sequence.

A chemical reaction is shown.
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

1) A chemical reaction is shown.

SnO2 + H2 → Sn + H2O

What is true about this chemical reaction?

B.

It is unbalanced because the mass of the reactants (number of atoms) is greater than the mass of the products (number of atoms).

2) Read the information about an experiment.  

Jadon plans on carrying out an experiment involving the burning of steel wool to illustrate the conservation of mass. Steel wool is made of iron. When it is burned it combines with oxygen to form iron(III) oxide.

Which step in his experiment is the most important if he wants his experiment to correctly demonstrate the conservation of mass?

A.

The steel wool should be burned inside of a sealed jar or other closed system.

Explanation:

The explanation to number 1 is that I selected it in my test and got it.

The explanation the number 2 is from the link below:
