Answer:

to produce eggs

Explanation:

The larger pinecone are the female cones of the plant. They are responsible for producing eggs.

The male cones are yellow, formed by numerous scales, with bags full of pollen, the female cones are greenish formed by scales in which there are uncovered eggs.

In their maturation, male cones or catkins release millions of pollen grains to the wind, which are transported by the wind and fall into the female cones, fertilizing the eggs. Fertilized, the female cone closes forming the pinecone, inside which are the pine nuts, the product of the fertilized eggs. At the end of a year or so, the pine cone opens and lets the pine nuts fall, which disperse in the wind until they fall in a suitable place for their germination.

What results if water is heated and and highly pressured underground

Nadusha1986 [10]

The answer is; geysers

Due to the water underground being heated from geological reason such as heat from magma chambers, the water heats up and expands. The pressure of the rock above the water causes it to reach very high pressures. The water finds cracks and fissures in the rocks above until it reached the surface. The pressure releases and the water eject from the ground into a hot fountain.

timofeeve [1]

In order to test the implications of early emotional bonding, scientists have done testing on infant emotionality by separating animal babies from their natural mothers, allowing them to be raised by another of their same species. This testing strategy is called Cross fostering

Transfer of children between mothers is known as cross-fostering. This method is used to distinguish between environmental and genetic impacts on behavior.
Transferring some freshly born or hatched young of species A from their mother nest to the nests of species B is the primary process of cross-fostering.

A behavior can be proven to have a genetic foundation if cross-fostered offspring have a behavioral attribute that is distinct from that of their foster parents and similar to that of their biological parents.
Similarly, environmental variables are proven to be dominating if the offspring exhibits qualities that are different from those of their biological parents and comparable to those of their foster parents.
There is frequently a combination of the two, demonstrating both genes.
This can be utilized in selective livestock breeding to combine desirable genetic traits like weight, fat distribution, or looks with ones that are influenced by the environment, like temper.

Meselson and Stahl used density labeling of DNA to show that DNA replication occurs via a semiconservative mechanism. In their e

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The organism previously used 15N for replication so all the DNA molecules were of 15N15N type. Then the organism is shifted to a medium where only 14N is available for replication.
According to semi conservative mode of replication, a newly synthesised DNA molecule consists of one new strand and one parental strand. So after the first round of replication, All the 15N strands will synthesise new DNA strands using 14N resulting into intermediate 15N14N DNA molecules. Hence, only one band would be observed (15N14N) above the original 15N15N band since 15N14N has lighter isotope too so it will be lighter than 15N15N molecules and will lie above it.
After second round of replication, 15N strand from 15N14N would synthesise another 14N strand. 14N strand from 15N14N molecules will also synthesise another 14N strand. So now, 50% of the DNA molecules will be of 15N14N intermediate type and 50% of them will be of 14N14N type.Two bands will be observed above the original 15N15N band. One band of 15N14N molecules will be right above it and other band of 14N14N molecules will be even higher because it is the lightest band since it has only the lighter isotope of nitrogen.
