The question is <u>incomplete,</u> options are given below:
A. A tropical area with moderate rainfall
B. A temperate forest
C. A steep slope
D. A river delta
Answer:
<em>C.</em><em> A steep slope</em>
Explanation:
Erosion is a <u>weathering process</u> that causes removal of the top layer of sediments from any geological material (rock, plain area, etc) and then transports that material to another place. This process is governed by the combined action of wind, water (precipitation), gravity, and other meteorological parameters.
For this question, four options are given among which rate of erosion would be faster than the rate of soil formation for a steep slope. For a steep slope, the movement of water and wind would be stronger along with high gravitational pull as compared to the tropical area, river delta, and temperate forest. In principle, in the temperate forest, the erosion would be lowest due to the presence of plant roots that support the soil material to stay aggregated and resist against weathering.
The answer is horizontal gene transfer.
Horizontal gene transfer enables gene flow between genomes of two organisms. It is a common process between different species of <span>prokaryotes and even, between prokaryotes and eukaryotes. </span>When trying to reconstruct evolution and phylogenetic relationship, scientists face some difficulties because they cannot say the common gene transfer with the horizontal one.
Correct answer: D) Loss of insulation around vital organs
Fat is a nutrient should be to be taken in the diet but not in excess amount, it provides energy and help the body to absorb the vitamins.
It consists of a hydrocarbon chain and served to provide the structural and functional unit of the cell. The cell membrane is made up of a phospholipid bilayer, which consists of phosphate and glycerol.
The main function played by the fat inside the body include the transformation of energy and providing heat insulation to the body.
The adipose tissue of the body act as an insulator. As it contains fat molecule, and fat is a poor conductor of the heat, it traps the heat across the vital organ of the body such as heart, eyes etc. Due to the bad conductivity, fat molecule act as an insulator. It also acts as a cushion for most of the important organ of the body and protects them from damage and mechanical injury.
