physics.

Answer:

1. The Moon

During lunar eclipses, the shadow on the Moon’s surface is round. This shadow is the planet’s, and it’s a great clue about the spherical shape of the Earth.

2. Seeing farther from higher

The higher up you climb, the farther you will see. we tend to relate this to Earthly obstacles, like the fact we have houses or other trees obstructing our vision on the ground, and climbing upwards we have a clear view, but that’s not the true reason. Even if you stood on a completely clear plateau with no obstacles between you and the horizon, you would see much farther from the greater height than you would on the ground.

This phenomenon is caused by the curvature of the Earth as well, and would not happen if the Earth was flat.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. The existence of time zones

We have time zones because when the Sun is illuminating one side of the spherical Earth, the other side is dark. This can only be explained if the world is round, and rotating around its own axis. At a certain point when the sun is shining on one part of the Earth, the opposite side is dark, and vice versa. That allows for time differences and time zones, specifically ones that are larger than 12 hours.

Members of the Deinococcus genus present an interesting conundrum to scientists who try to classify them as either gram-positive
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Bacteria can be classified traditionally into two broad categories according to their cell wall, which are Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-negitive bacteria.

Gram-positive bacteria are bacteria that produce a positive result when Gram stain test is performed. It takes up the crystal violet stain of the test, and then show a purple-coloured appearance when seen through an optical microscope. This is as a result of the thick "peptidoglycan" layer in the bacterial cell wall which retains the stain used in the cell after washing it away from the rest of the sample.

Gram-negative bacteria after the decolorization don't retain the violet stain,the outer membrane of gram-negative cells is degraded by the alcohol.The peptidoglycan layer is positioned and between the membrane and a bacterial outer membrane, causing them to take up the counterstain and made appear red or pink.

Therefore, Deinococcus is one genus of the bacterial phylum that have resistant to environmental hazards. They posses thick cell walls that give them Gram-positive stains, but they also posess second membrane that made them them closer in structure to Gram-negative bacteria, which present an interesting conundrum to scientists who try to classify them as either gram-positive or gram-negative.

Researchers have noticed that some men who were sterile because their sperm cells were unable to move also had chronic infection
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Kartegener's disorder

Explanation:

The respiratory tract has cilia which move. Sperms also have a tail that moves. They both have the same protein in their structure called microtubules. There is a disorder in which there is the absence of a part in the microtubule. Dynein arms absent in microtubules. Because the respiratory system and sperm both contain cilia that's why these two systems have a connection and not work properly.

<span>Constructing recombinant DNA or rDNA scientists should combine both DNA from two different species.  Based on study, rDNA is possible if both DNA that should be combined should have the same chemical </span><span>structure. Most o the DNA do have the same structure they only differ in nucleotide sequence. </span>
