Answer: There are various means by which the environment can be affected. These can be human activities or natural calamities.

Landslide is one of the major disaster which can be intensified by human activities.

Mining, deforestation, construction are some of the activities that can loosen the soil which aids to intensify the landslide.

Once the landslide is occurring the loosen soil intensifies the landslide. So, the activities that loosens the soil must be avoided to prevent landslide frequently.

The human activities directly or indirectly affect the nature. The deforestation and the removal of the vegetation  for the purpose of development or timber, the land is exposed to the dangers of the landslide. The tress, plants and other vegetation keeps the soil in place with the help of their roots. The soil erosion is prevented by the trees, but the cutting down of them by the humans increases erosion and hence, the risk of landslide.

Enteric interneurons that are inhibitory to smooth muscle use which of the following neurotransmitters?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

a. VIP (vasoactive intestinal peptide)

Explanation:

The enteric nervous system (ENS)  is one of the main divisions of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) together with sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. This system consists of neurons that regulate the function of the gastrointestinal tract (GI).

Inhibitory interneurons that are part of the enteric nervous system also known as Dogiel type I neurones achieve their inhibitory transmission via nitric oxide, adenosine triphosphate,  vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and pituitary activating cyclic AMP. They usually act directly on smooth muscles of GI.

Eukaryotic cells contain DNA in the mitochondria and chloroplasts (in addition to the nucleus). Is the organization of DNA in th
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The DNA is more closer to bacteria.

Explanation:

Mitochondria and chloroplast are considered as semi-autonomous organelle because they contain their own genetic material. The mitochondria and chloroplast evolution can be explained by the endosymbiont theory.

The DNA of mitochondria and chloroplast are more closely related to bacterial chromosome rather than eukaryotic chromosome.  Both the organelle and bacterial DNA are double stranded and  their translation can be inhibited by the chloramphenicol. Some of their replicating enzymes also show similar characteristics.

Thus, the DNA is more closer to bacteria.
