Biology

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.

What would happen if a cell did not have mitochondrial
Usimov [2.4K]
Cells that have no mitochondria are unable to convert oxygen into energy, found in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). All multicellular eukaryotic organisms, including plants and animals, have mitochondria in some cells, but prokaryotes and some single-cell eukaryotes do not have mitochondria.

How will you determine which strain is wild type and which strain is mutant? Can you justify your answers using molecular biolog
Levart [38]

Answer: The simplest way is to determine if a strain is mutant is observing morphology, growth rate, double time, etc but it is accurate if you can prove if the strain is deficient in one aminoacid or can't metabolize lactose, etc.

Explanation: A wildtype strain functions normally, for example, can metabolize as a carbon source, glucose, lactose and other sugars, can synthesize all the aminoacids requered for protein synthesis, etc. If a strain suffers a mutation and it is inheritable, the strain become a mutant. Since several mutations can be silent ones, only those that interfere with a process, can be assesed easyly.

For example, if you have several strains and put them in a lactose medium, but some of them cannot growth means that are lactose mutants. Those strains could carry a mutation in genes that encode lactose degrading enzymes or in regulatory genes of the lac operon, etc.

The resulting compounds of glycolysis can undergo other ____________ to produce more atp in the cell.
Gnom [1K]

The resulting compounds of glycolysis can undergo other Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to produce more ATP in the cell.

<h3>What is glycolysis?</h3>

Glycolysis is a process in which glucose is partially broken down by cells in enzyme reactions that do not need oxygen.

Glycolysis is one method that cells use to produce energy.

<h3>Resulting compounds of glycolysis</h3>

During glycolysis, glucose ultimately breaks down into pyruvate and energy.

Thus, the resulting compounds of glycolysis can undergo other Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to produce more ATP in the cell.

Why would it be pointless for reptiles to sit on their eggs to incubate them as birds do? (2 points) Reptiles have teeth with wh
Alika [10]
The correct answer is: 'Reptiles are ectotherms and cannot raise their body temperature above that of the environment'. Birds sit on their eggs to incubate the eggs as the body temperature of the adult bird warms up the eggs. Birds are <span>endothermic homeotherms, and maintain a constant body temperature. In contrast </span>reptiles <span>are ectothermic poikilotherms, and their body temperature depends on the temperature of the outside environment.</span>
