Nestled at the edge of the arid Great Basin and the snowy Sierra Nevada mountains in California, Mono Lake is an ancient saline lake that covers over 70 square miles and supports a unique and productive ecosystem. The lake has no fish; instead it is home to trillions of brine shrimp and alkali flies. Freshwater streams feed Mono Lake, supporting lush riparian forests of cottonwood and willow along their banks. Along the lakeshore, scenic limestone formations known as tufa towers rise from the water's surface. Millions of migratory birds visit the lake each year.
From 1941 until 1990, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (DWP) diverted excessive amounts of water from Mono Basin streams. Mono Lake dropped 45 vertical feet, lost half its volume, and doubled in salinity.
The Mono Lake Committee, founded in 1978, led the fight to save the lake with cooperative solutions. We continue our protection, restoration, and education efforts today with the support of 16,000 members --and we host this Website.
In 1994, after over a decade of litigation, the California State Water Resources Control Board ordered DWP to allow Mono Lake to rise to a healthy level of 6,392 feet above sea level--twenty feet above its historic low. It is rising toward that goal -- click here for the current lake level, or visit one of the other links on this page for more of the Mono Lake story.
Answer:
1. lytic/losigenic cycle
2. Restriction enzymes (breaks) and DNA ligase (joins)
3.mitosis (creation of twin daughter cells)
4. mitosis had helped humans with cell growth and repais (and keeps a steady supply of new cells)
Explanation:
it first goes through the lytic cycle where one bacterium inserts it's own dna into a host (human cell) and into the human DNA and it starts multiplying inside human cells in the lysogenic cycle
Answer;
Natural disasters can cause billions of dollars in property damage.
Explanation;
-Natural disasters are disasters that are caused by nature, not by human. they include; Earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, volcano eruptions, floods, wildfires, etc. Natural disasters can cause billions of dollars in property damage. Systems are unbalanced by the damage caused by natural disasters. The social infrastructure of a community includes social assets such as schools, hospitals, prisons and community housing. Such places are damaged in natural disaster, adversely affecting the community.
Answer: B. providing access to objects that are hard to find
Explanation: A specimen can be simply refered to as a sample of blood, tissue, fluid or a piece of a matter which scientist take or obtain to have a better look (study) at it in a lab.
Specimen collection is the process involved in getting or obtaining these samples for better analysis in a lab. This process help scientist get, obtain or have access to samples or objects that are not easily accessible.
Therefore Specimen collection helps scientist carry out experiment by providing access to objects that are hard to find.
