A hurricane tore holes in the roof of your house, allowing a good deal of moisture inside. Very quickly, mold began to grow beca

use of it. What would be the most effective and ecologically friendly way of killing the mold and why?
a. Since mold is one of the immobile protists, releasing heterotrophic protists to act as predators would kill it.
b. Since mold is an autotrophic protist, depriving it of light would keep it from photosynthesizing, and it would die.
c. Since protists need moist environments in order to grow well, drying out the area would kill the mold.
d. Since protists need to move their flagella to gather food, spraying red tide toxins on the mold would paralyze and kill it.

The right option is; c. Since protists need moist environments in order to grow well, drying out the area would kill the mold.

Molds are woolly or fury growth of tiny fungi that appears when organic materials lies for a long time exposed to (usually moist and warm) air. Molds can survive and grow almost anywhere that moisture and oxygen are available. The most effective and ecologically friendly way of killing molds is by drying out the affected area to remove excess moisture which can allow their spores to germinate. After drying out the area, the fungus should be removed physically (by discarding contaminated porous materials and cleaning non porous surfaces) in order to avoid mold growth in the future.

please fill in the blanks.Ecosystems are characterized by the cycling of ____________ and by the flow of ____________ . Both of
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Ecosystems are characterized by the cycling of chemicals and by the flow of energy. Both of these begin when photosynthesizing organisms take in solar energy and inorganic nutrients to make organic nutrients. These organic nutrients move up through the food chain until death occurs and decomposition returns the nutrients to the earth. In this manner, chemicals are cycled throughout an ecosystem. As these organic nutrients move up the food chain, energy moves along with them. With each level of the food chain, some of this energy is lost as heat. In this manner, energy flows through an ecosystem and does not cycle.

Explanation:

Chemicals is the term used in general to refer to simple molecules or substances formed by two or more atoms. They can be classified as organic, most of which are formed by carbon and hydrogen and derive from biological processes, and inorganic, with other compositions.

Energy, on the other hand, is the capacity of performing a reaction or movement. It is necessary for processes in which one chemical is transformed into another one. One form of energy is the one contained in atomic bonds (chemical energy), but there are many other forms.

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants and other organisms transform inorganic matter into organic. They use the energy contained in sun rays to perform this task, inside complex structures called chloroplasts.

The female I-1 and her mate, male I-2, had four children, one of whom has albinism. What is the probability that they could have
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

75% chance of having four normal phenotype children without albinism.

50% chance of having four children who are carriers of the gene with normal phenotype.

Explanation:

Albinism results from an autosomal recessive gene.  In order to solve this problem we have to draw a punnet square and figure out the genotypes of the parents.  So with the genotype of the parents both parents have to be carriers of the trait since it is an autosomal recessive trait.

Genotype of female I-1 = Aa

Genotype of male I-1 = Aa

 

PARENTS A a

A                AA  Aa

a                Aa  aa

75% chance of having four normal phenotype children without albinism.

50% chance of having four children who are carriers of the gene with normal phenotype.

25% chance of having children with albinism.
