Solution:
The correct answer is:
Yes, Kudzu helps prevent erosion.
Explanation:
Kudzu is a leafy vine that can prevent soil erosion. This is due to its wide leaves and strong root system that prevents soil erosion. In fact, Kudzu exhibits a symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, which may help explain their successful growth on heavily eroded sites. The kudzu cover prevents soil erosion because produces a high density of organic matter and this slows down the speed of rainwater. Also, Kudzu maintains soil moisture and prevents runoff even on steep slopes.
The enthal difference between the reactants and the products is equal to the amount of energy released to the surroundings. ... A reaction in which energy is absorbed from the surroundings is called an endothermic reaction. In endothermic reactions the enthalpy of the products is greater than the enthalpy of the reactants.
Answer:
A desirable intake of dietary fiber is 20-35 grams daily, according to the American Dietetic Association.
Explanation:
Dietary fiber has always been a part of a healthy, balanced eating lifestyle. Fiber has 2 types, soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber is a <u>gelatin-like</u> substance when combined with water and when ingested, <u>can help slow the travel of food in the gut, making you feel</u> <em>"full."</em> Insoluble fiber or roughage is the <u>bulk-forming type</u>. It <u>holds water</u> in its structure, helping <u>regulate the bowel movements.</u>
Fiber, being a <u>complex carbohydrate</u>, can help <u>lessen the risk of an increase of bad cholesterol and blood sugar</u>. Examples of fiber-rich foods are whole grain products, barley, oats, grapes, etc.
Answer:
The correct answer is: c) usually produces offspring that cannot reproduce.
Explanation:
Hybridization, also knowns as selective breeding, is an <u>artificial process</u><u> that involves selecting parents with specific characteristics in order to obtain an offspring with the same traits</u>.
Hybridization is very common and has been performed by humans for thousands of years: from selective breeding crop plants, to do so with dogs in order to create more desirable breeds.
Option A is incorrect because hybridation does not occur in nature, it is an artificial process.
Option B is incorrect because hybridation often happens when the selected parents are chosen to reproduce (by a human).
Option D is correct because an important amount of hybrids are sterile (for example: mules).
Option D is incorrect as well because the offspring is not identical: it shares a combination of genes from both parents.
