Answer: Groundwater is the largest available source of freshwater.

Ground water is a water reservoir. It accumulates in the saturated zone of the geosphere. The water accumulates when water from sources like river, lakes, ponds, rainfall, snow melt, and agricultural irrigation gets seep underground by the pores of soil and rocks. It is a largest source of freshwater, as it remains unexposed to the contamination.

True or false earth is a single interconnected system :)
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The earth system is itself an integrated system, but it can be subdivided into four main components, sub-systems or spheres: the geosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere. These components are also systems in their own right and they are tightly interconnected.

Color in McIver beetles is determined by two alleles at one gene locus. McIver beetles must have a heterzygous genotype (genotyp
seraphim [82]

Answer: The frequency of brown beetles is 0.32.

Explanation: The frequency of A1 allele is 0.8. As p+q=1, or the sum of dominant and recessive frequencies equals 1 or 100%:

1 - 0.8 = 0.2

In Hardy-Weinberg principle,

p^{2} + 2pq + q^{2} = 1

2pq represents the frequency of heterozygote individuals, so:

genotype A1A2 = 2*0.8*0.2 = 0.32.

Thus, the frequency of brown beetles (A1A2) in the population is 0.32.

O C. mitochondria 2. Where is the major site of photosynthesis in a plant? * O A. the stem O B. the roots O C. the leaves​
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

The answer to this question is option C or "the leaves." The major site of photosynthesis in a plant is where the chloroplasts are located because it contains chlorophyll which is where photosynthesis takes place, chloroplasts is in all the green parts of a plant stem, leaves, and even the branches but it takes place mainly in the leaves of a plant because there is more leaves then roots or branches.

Hope this helps.

In biological systems, there are several membrane transport systems responsible for the passage of ions like Na+ and K+ , or sma
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Answered below

Explanation:

Cell membranes are barriers which protect and regulate the movement of substances in and out of the cells. It is a semi-permeable and selective structure.

In the passive transport system, substances move along a concentration gradient and it doesn't require energy. The examples of passive transports include; simple diffusion which transports carbon dioxide and oxygen, osmosis and facilitated diffusion which transports charged molecules like ions, sucrose etc.

In active transport, substances move against the concentration gradient. This requires energy. The two main types are: primary active transport, which uses direct metabolic energy e.g Na+/K+ pump, and the secondary active transport system which couples the transported molecules with another molecule moving along the gradient, example the Na+/glucose transporter.
