Explain How does the gradient of a river affect its flow?

Biology
1 answer:
djverab [1.8K]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

The flow of the river is dependent upon the position along the stream in terms of the gradient. Near the top of a high gradient, the flow will be less than that near the bottom. Likewise, the steeper the river's gradient, the faster the flow of water (due to the pull of water down the gradient by gravity).

Explain why bacteria are gram negative​
Neporo4naja [7]

In 1884, a bacteriologist named Christian Gram created a test that could determine if a bacterium had a thick, mesh-like membrane called peptidoglycan. Bacteria with thick peptidoglycan are called gram positive. If the peptidoglycan layer is thin, it's classified as gram negative.
