Repeat the demonstration on a paved surface such as a driveway or sidewalk and document the differences. With no soil to absorb
this water, what would happen in a heavy rainstorm? How would an engineer in charge of a city's flood control system prepare for the runoff generated on paved parking lots and roads in a heavy rainstorm?
Answer:The rate of absorption into the soil was very slow, which meant that some of the water flowed over it and was either absorbed in a different area, or ran onto the driveway and down into the street. It was a warm sunny day, so after a while the wet patch of water on the sidewalk had dried up (evaporation). Once the soil got wet from absorbing the water, the rate of absorption got even slower – like the soil was “full” – and more water ran over onto the driveway. The water on the driveway moved very quickly, since the concrete didn’t absorb it. Our street has never flooded before, but I have seen heavy rainstorms where the water was moving down the street like a big stream, carrying fallen leaves and trash down into the storm drains.
Without soil to absorb the excess water, a heavy rainstorm will cause massive flooding. The water will accumulate over the pavement and keep rising until it finds soil or a runoff since water always levels itself out. To prevent situations such as this one an engineer should implement drainage tunnels between the road and the sidewalks. This would allow the water to be drained and flow to the nearby body of water. This would easily prevent flooding during a heavy rainstorm.
The first step in protein synthesis is the transcription of mRNA from a DNA gene in the nucleus. At some other prior time, the various other types of RNA have been synthesized using the appropriate DNA. The RNAs migrate from the nucleus into the cytoplasm.
No.1 - all living beings do not need the same kind of food. Some animals eat only plant products called as herbivores. ... Some other animals eat both plants and animals called omnivores
No.2 - : Humans aren't amphibians
Explanation:
Humans are mammals they give birth to live young and feed them with milk produced by their
The amino acids are the building blocks of the proteins.
Explanation:
The amino acids are the organic molecules made up of a carboxylic group, an amino group and a carbon side chain. The proteins are macromolecules, made up of amino acids. Many amino acids combine to form a protein. The structure of the protein depends on the sequence of the amino acids present in the structure of protein. A different protein has a different sequence of amino acids.
