Answer:

The density of ice is less than the density of water, this is the reason why ice floats on water and this helps to maintain an optimum temperature inside water.

The temperature inside the ice cover is more and it is not as freezing as it is on the water surface.

The plants can grow inside the lake without being affected by the temperature that lies at the surface.

Describe two reasons why the use of synthetic fertilizers is not the answer to decreasing soil quality
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Two reasons why the use of synthetic fertilizers is not the answer to decreasing soil quality are:

  • They increase the nitrate levels in the soil which is a rich supplement for nitrogen needed by plants for their growth.
  • They are easily available and user-friendly but should be used in regulated amounts as an excess of nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus present in synthetic fertilizers enter the aquatic ecosystem.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Synthetic fertilizers are made up of three main nutrients, viz, nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus. All of these are required for the proper growth of plants.  Though, these fertilizers give higher yields, yet their excessive use is bad for aquatic ecosystems.

When these fertilizers are used in excessive amounts, they reduce the dissolved oxygen in the water as there’s an increase of bacteria and algae in the water.  That is why such fertilizers should be used in regulated amounts.

From left to right, which is the sequence of the<br> complementary strand of DNA in this molecule?
ladessa [460]

Answer: Option A) A-C-T-T-G

Explanation:

The base sequence on a strand of DNA is usually paired to specific complimentary bases. These specific pairings are as follows:

Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T)

Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C). So when you find A replace with T, so also replace C with G and vice versa.

Thus, the complimentary sequence of the T-G-A-A-C DNA strand is A-C-T-T-G

When a species of fly has a bold coloration very similar to that of an unpalatable?
skelet666 [1.2K]
Mullerian mimicry. Unpalatable means not tasty. If an animal (fly) is copying a toxic or unpalatable animal, it must be for survival. If predators know that one animal is unpalatable, the predator would not eat a fly that looks similar to that unpalatable animal.
