Answer:

In other areas groundwater is polluted by human activities. Water in aquifers is brought to the surface naturally through a spring or can be discharged into lakes and streams. Groundwater can also be extracted through a well drilled into the aquifer. A well is a pipe in the ground that fills with groundwater.

Free water migrating within rock pores, cracks and fissures is called groundwater. Groundwater constitutes the largest source of water used by Man for drinking and for many other purposes. It circulates in porous rocks called aquifers.

hope this helps

have a good day :)

Answer:

Groundwater is naturally recharged by rain water and snowmelt or from water that leaks through the bottom of some lakes and rivers. There are also techniques to manage aquifer recharge and increase the amount of water infiltrating into the ground. Groundwater can be found almost everywhere.

Billy is an 11-year-old boy who was admitted to hospital with dehydration. His parents said that over the last few months, he ha

mart [117]

Answer:

Billy showed signs of type 1 diabetes.This is because,

1.His dehydration was from polyuria- excessive urination.

2. because of failure of his pancreas to secrete insulin, for cellular utilization of glucose by beta cells- he retains glucose in his blood, and lost a lot of glucose in his urine, thus water follow by osmosis, leading to polyuria causing dehydration.

His urge to replace lost glucose and fluids leads to great thirst polydipsia, another symptoms of type1. However, his drop in weight is because, the solute concentration of blood glucose is high due to lack of insulin.Therefore large amount is lost in the urine, with large volume of fluids leading to drop in weight, and energy because cells lack glucose for biochemical reaction of energy production.

The dehydration leads to sunken eyes, loss of tissue turgor, and low fluid levels results in drop in blood pressure,-Hyportension.

Due to lack of glucose in the blood gluconeogensis sets in. Fats is converted to glucose by the liver to supplement the lost glucose. The major by product of this reaction is a ketone-acetone. This explains the reason for the smell of acetone in his breath.

2, The Test strip indicated large quantity of ketones. above ,3.0mmol/L .This is a confirmation of the Type 1 diabetes mellitus in Billy.As more fats molecules are broken down to glucose.

Which of the following processes involves the chloroplast?a. cell divisionb. conversion of light energy to chemical energyc. for

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

$\boxed{\tt B. \ Conversion\ of\ light \ energy \ to \ chemical \ energy}$

Explanation:

This question asks us which process involves the chloroplast.

In plants, algae, and some bacteria, a process called <u>photosynthesis</u> occurs. This process takes place in the <em>chloroplasts. </em>In the process, the organism takes light energy from the sun, carbon dioxide, and water, and turns it into glucose and oxygen.

The glucose that is made becomes the food and energy for the organism. In another process, called cellular respiration, the sugar is turned into ATP, a kind of useable energy.

The best answer choice is B. Conversion of light energy to chemical energy. The chloroplasts convert light energy to sugar, and the sugar becomes chemical energy.

Which of the following are the reproductive parts of an angiosperm flower? A. anther and ovary B. sepal and anther C. vary and s

Simora [160]

The answer is A. anther and ovary.

The female part of an angiosperm flower is called a pistil and it consists of a style, stigma and ovary. The male part of an angiosperm flower is called a stamen and it consists of an anther and corolla. Thus, among all choices, choice A is the answer.

Choice B - anther is the male part of the flower, but sepal is a protective part of the flower and not reproductive.

Choice D - stigma is the female part of the flower, but sepal is a protective part of the flower and not reproductive.

Choice C - "vary" is not a word, but it is a mistake and it should be "ovary," the answers could be both choice A and C.
