Answer:

I will not recommend this type of soil for farming.

Explanation:

The epipedon is highly eluviated tells us that the nutrients present in the soil is leached out or washed away because of more rainfall in that region. The soil is oxic in which Fe and Al oxide minerals are present in large amount that caused iron or aluminium toxicity in the plant body so I will give the advise to my friend that not to purchase this plot for the farming of sugarcane and rice and purchase another piece of land which is rich in minerals and organic mater.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

A. Intracellular Thirst

Explanation:

There are two types of thirst and intracellular thirst and extracellular thirst. Extracellular thirst (dehydration) can be ruled out as it only requires water and salt to regenerate blood, at it's correct osmality. On the other hand, intracellular thirst (dehydration) can be corrected by drinking water alone. Therefore, the answer to this problem is intracellular thirst due to thirst for plain water.

Which compound is a metabolic intermediate of the light-independent reactions in photosynthesis?
timama [110]
<span>Light dependent reactions require an actual source of light, and this is from the sun, for energy to carry out the first stage of photosynthesis. They need solar energy to split a water molecule in order to obtain electrons from hydrogen to be used in fueling photosynthesis. Light independent reactions do not require a light source for energy but rather they use energy that was created by the light dependent reactions to complete the process of photosynthesis in which different carbohydrates for the plant are made.</span>

What are the mechanisms of natural selection, and how do they lead to changes in
Nata [24]

Darwin's proposed mechanism for evolution is natural selection. Natural selection allows species to respond to their surroundings through time, or to become progressively excellently-suited. Natural selection is environmentally based and involves established heritable variation within a population.

They lead to changes in  species over time:

  • Darwin suggested species will evolve over time, new species originate from pre-existing species, and all species share a common ancestor with each other.
  • In this framework each organism has its own special set of heritable i.e genetic variations from the common ancestor that have slowly developed over very longer periods of time.
  • Parroted branching activities that isolate new species from a common ancestor create a multi-level tree that connects all living organisms.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a serious condition caused by a recessive allele of a gene on the human X chromosome. The patient
klio [65]

Answer:

One-half of the daughters of an affected man would have this condition.

Explanation:

Each daughter born to a woman that is positive for a dystrophin mutation on one of her two X chromosomes possess a 50 percent likelihood of possessing the mutation and also becoming a carrier. Carriers at times do not show the disease symptoms but may give birth to a child that has the mutation or the disease condition. DMD carriers do have a higher chance of cardiomyopathy.

A man with DMD cannot transfer the affected gene to his sons since he passes to his son a Y chromosome, not the X chromosome. But he will definately transfer it to his daughters, since each daughter possess her father’s only X chromosome resulting in the daughters being carriers.

Hence, One-half of the daughters of an affected father and a carrier mother could have this condition.

I can’t see your answer choices, but igneous rocks are made from cooled lava or magma. This is why these rocks are so brittle and grainy. I’ve attached a helpful image to better explain! Good luck!!!
