Answer:
25%
Explanation:
According to this question, a seek stored seeds of a rare and endangered plant. In order to ensure that the seeds remain fresh, 120 seeds are selected to be grown. However, out of these 120 seeds, only 90 germinated. This means that only 90 of 120 seeds are fertile.
This further means that (120-90) = 30 seeds are infertile and hence, could not germinate. In percentage, this can be represented as:
30/120 × 100
= 1/4 × 100
= 100/4
= 25% of the selected seeds are infertile.
Eruptions at shield volcanoes are only explosive if water somehow gets into the vent , otherwise they are characterized by low-explosivity fountaining that forms cinder cones and spatter cones at the vent, however, 90% of the volcano is lava rather than pyroclastic material.
Answer:
Stored water - gravitational energy
Water fall - kinetic energy
Turbine - kinetic energy
Powerlines - electric energy
Explanation:
Dams are used to store or hold water for hydroelectric power plants. This stored water which has gravitational energy is a form of potential energy.
When the water is left to fall and run fast through the turbine, the gravitational energy is transformed into kinetic energy which makes the turbine to spin.
As the turbine spins, kinetic energy that is produced also powers the shaft of the engine in the electric generator, which produces electricuty.
Kinetic energy is transformed to electric energy and transmitted along powerlines.
*See attachment below for labelled energy that is being transformed at several points.
The main term of reference in the index is Aneurysm
Extra cranial carotid artery aneurysms ruptures when the blood clots are formed in them. The term aneurysms is a disease that is happening due to the weakness in the wall of artery. The weakened arteries widens out or swells.
An example of a population in which evolution could take place in a relatively short period of time could be pathogenic bacteria exposed to antibiotics.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
Evolution if takes place within a short period of time say the next generation that is called as micro evolution. This is caused when a specific organism exposed in a different environment at once modifies its genes to suit the new environment. This phenomenon can be very well seen in the pathogenic bacteria which are exposed to antibiotics.
When an antibiotic is prescribed to bacteria initially it nullifies its effect by destroying it. When continuously exposed to a certain antibiotic some bacteria dies but there are few which becomes resistant to it and survives. This on the other hand multiplies producing a generation that can’t be touched by the antibiotic.
