Answer:

lagoon

Explanation:

As the estuary gets more and more sediments, the deposition of them is constantly on the rise, affecting the landscape and forming new geographical features. With the sediments constantly building up, they eventually cut off part of the water from the sea. They will form a closed pool-like feature, filled with water, and surrounded by sediments, cut off from the sea. It will have shallow water, and because the water is stagnant and shallow it will have higher temperature than the other water. This geographical feature is known as lagoon.

torisob [31]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Tetrodotoxin is the molecules that act as a poison to the organism in which they are injected.

The tetrodotoxin proves lethal to the organisms as it kills the organism by interfering with the nervous system. The tetrodotoxin blocks the sodium channels in the neuron as a result of which the sodium is unable to enter the neurons and hence the electrical impulse is not generated.

If the tetrodotoxin blocks the motor neuron transmission by blocking the sodium channels then the signals will not reach the muscle and muscle will not be able to contract.

Thus, true is correct.

What does it mean that a gene exhibits codominance?
alukav5142 [94]
Essentially traits of both genes will be shown. Take heterochromia for example, where a person has a green eye and a blue eye, both have some part in developing a trait.
