How are mosquitos infected with Wolbachia?

Biology
1 answer:
bazaltina [42]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:Wolbachia can only be transmitted from parent to offspring inside the female's egg. When a male mosquito that carries Wolbachia mates with a female without the bacteria then that female's eggs don't hatch. Wolbachia-infected female mosquitoes, however, produce normal numbers of offspring – which carry Wolbachia.

prisoha [69]

The right option is Capsid

A capsid is a protein coat that encloses the nucleic acid (RNA, DNA etc.) of a virus particle. Capsids are in different shapes and the common ones are icosahedral, prolate, and helical. The main role of the capsid is to protect the virus by ensuring that the nucleic acid inside of it is safe.

Describes how energy is produced from the power of water. In your answer, include the terms: ocean water, turbine, electricity,
lapo4ka [179]

Most hydroelectric power plants have a dam and a reservoir. These structures may obstruct fish migration and affect their populations. Operating a hydroelectric power plant may also change the water temperature and the river's flow. These changes may harm native plants and animals in the river and on land. Reservoirs may cover people's homes, important natural areas, agricultural land, and archaeological sites. So building dams can require relocating people. Methane, a strong greenhouse gas, may also form in some reservoirs and be emitted to the atmosphere. Reservoir construction is "drying up" in the United States  Gosh, hydroelectric power sounds great -- so why don't we use it to produce all of our power? Mainly because you need lots of water and a lot of land where you can build a dam and reservoir, which all takes a LOT of money, time, and construction. In fact, most of the good spots to locate hydro plants have already been taken. In the early part of the century hydroelectric plants supplied a bit less than one-half of the nation's power, but the number is down to about 10 percent today. The trend for the future will probably be to build small-scale hydro plants that can generate electricity for a single community.  As this chart shows, the construction of surface reservoirs has slowed considerably in recent years. In the middle of the 20th Century, when urbanization was occurring at a rapid rate, many reservoirs were constructed to serve peoples' rising demand for water and power. Since  Hydroelectric energy is produced by the force of falling water. The capacity to produce this energy is dependent on both the available flow and the height from which it falls. Building up behind a high dam, water accumulates potential energy. This is transformed into mechanical energy when the water rushes down the sluice and strikes the rotary blades of turbine. The turbine's rotation spins electromagnets which generate current in stationary coils of wire. Finally, the current is put through a transformer where the voltage is increased for long distance transmission over power lines.   Hydroelectric-power production in the United States and the world!

1. The graph shows the world human population size and growth rate over time. How are the two sets of data related to each other
Margaret [11]

The two datasets show the sudden increase in population since the millennium.

<h3>What is the comparison between the data?</h3>

Human population growth has been a matter of concern for several years. It is a known fact that human population has been growing at an unsustainable rate since the millennium especially in developing countries.

Essentially when we talk about the population of a place we talk about the number of people that live in that place. The more the number of people in a place the greater the population of a place and population have been increasing at astronomical rate in recent times.

Looking at the datasets, we can see that, the rate of population growth since sine the 1960s has increased so much and this is quite unsustainable and somehow accounts for the population explosion that is recently occurring in many parts of the world and is leading to many intervention programs.
