Answer:
B. Geocentric
Explanation:
Geo means Earth, and centric means "in the center". So a geocentric model of the solar system would mean the Earth were at the center of the solar system, with the Sun and planets revolving around the Earth.
Answer:
This question lacks options, the options are:
A) The financial costs for the farmer would be lowered.
B) Federal agencies could initiate legal action against the farmer.
C) The farmer may be held responsible for increasing chemical pollution.
D) The farmer's expenses for pest control would increase due to an increase in bee population.
The answer is A.
Explanation:
Genetic engineering or modification is a process whereby the genome of an organism is manipulated in order to achieve a desirable trait in the organism. In this question, a farmer uses an approved genetically engineered corn plant, which produces pollen that can make its own toxins to repel pests.
Using this genetically modified corn plant means that the farmer no longer require the application of chemical pesticide to control the pests affecting his corn plant. The impact on the farmer of growing such a variety of corn is that the financial costs for the farmer would be lowered since he won't have to purchase chemical pesticides any longer.
A
Water in the soil is held tightly by adhesive forces between the water molecules and the mineral content in soil particles - in the microspores.
Explanation:
While water passes through the macrospores of soil by gravity, water passes through the microspores mainly by cohesion between the water molecules and adhesion between the water molecules and soil minerals. The more surface area for the minerals in the soil (due to finer particle sizes) the higher the water retention rate of the soil. This is why soil with more humus (like silt and clay) retains water more than soils like sand.

Paleozoic comes from Greek word palaios which means "old" or "ancient", and zoe which means "life".
it could be translated as "</span>Time of ancient life". The range of Paleozoic era is from <span>541 to 251 million years ago that could be divided into 6 smaller periods.</span>
Answer:
Shape
Explanation:
Proteins are made up of amino acids. The amino acid sequence in a protein is determined by the nucleotide sequence present in the DNA of the cell. These amino acids join together and makes the primary structure of protein which fold by making hydrogen bonding and determines the shape of the protein.
The shape of the protein determines the function of that protein. If the shape and structure of the protein gets destroyed then the protein will lose its function. Change in pH, temperature, salt concentration, etc can change the shape of protein and make it functionally inactive.
