The nitrogen cycle is most directly dependent upon-
vovangra [49]

Answer:

B) Nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning

Explanation:

Nitrogen cycle is the natural process in which atmospheric nitrogen is converted into nitrite and nitrate with the help of bacteria.

Nitrogen cycle is directly dependent on nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning.

As bacteria are responsible for most of the chemical conversion in the nitrogen cycle such as nitrogen fixation (first step) is done by soil bacteria (Cyanobacteria) that form ammonia, which is toxic to plants; nitrification in which ammonia is converted into nitrites and nitrates with the help of Nitrobacter and denitrification bacteria involve Pseudomonas, and Achromobacter which convert nitrite and nitrate into nitrogen.

The lightning breaks nitrogen molecules and allow  it to combine with oxygen in atmosphere which further dissolve in rain and form nitrates.

Hence, the nitrogen cycle is most directly dependent upon nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning and the correct option is B.

Two short-haired guinea pigs have several offspring over the course of a few years. Out of 100 offspring, 25 of them have long h
Llana [10]

The genotype of the short-haired parents that produced some long hair offsprings is probably heterozygous.

<h3>What is heterozygosity?</h3>

Heterozygous means an organism which has two different alleles of a given gene.

An organism that is heterozygous posseses two different alleles of the same gene. For example, in this gene coding for hair length;

  • L represents short hair (dominant)
  • l represents long hair (recessive)

Therefore, if two short-haired parents produce 100 offsprings and 25 of them are long-haired, it means that they were probably heterozygous for the short hair.

Isolating all of the RNA out of an organism, subjecting it to reverse transcriptase, and then cloning all of the resulting DNA i
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The answer is C.

Explanation:

The example process given in the question is describing the creating of a cDNA Library. cDNA or Complimentary DNA is copy of the DNA that is taken from a messenger RNA (mRNA), which is what is done with the reverse transcriptase. And the process described as cloning the resulting DNA into plasmids is the part where the library is created. The resulting DNA is put into host organisms and stored there for further investigation or use.

I hope this answer helps.

When a rigid body rotates about a fixed axis all the points in the body have the same angular acceleration.?
blagie [28]
This is actually not a question. You are going to have to re-read it. If you are asking it as a question it will look like this: "When a rigid body rotates about a fixed axis, do all the points in the body have the same angular acceleration?"
