Answer:

mantle

Explanation:

A mantle is a layer inside a planetary body bounded below by a core and above by a crust. Mantles are made of rock or ices, and are generally the largest and most massive layer of the planetary body. Mantles are characteristic of planetary bodies that have undergone differentiation by density.

É correto afirmar que a presença de lagartas em espigas de milho se deve:
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

C - ao desenvolvimento de ovos depositados por borboletas.

Explanation:

Antes de responder a sua pergunta, eu preciso te explicar que esse não é o servidor brasileiro e sim o servidor dos EUA, você deve ter percebido que toda a linguagem do site esta em inglês. Isso significa que você só deve postar perguntas em português no campo "World Languagens" mesmo que a sua pergunta seja de biologia como essa. Caso você não faça isso, a sua pergunta pdoe ser excluída, sem ser respondida.

As lagartas que surgem nas espigas de milho, são resultado do ciclo de vida da lagarta e refere-se ao momento em que os ovos depositados nas plantas de milho pelas borboletas se chocam, liberando as lagartas, que se desenvolverão e virarão novas borboletas.

É impossivel que um grão e milho vire uma lagarta, ou que o sabubo apodrecido pode gerar lagartas. Além disso, o ´processo de geração espontanea é uma teoria cientifica invalida e que não deve ser considerada.

Hawking states that much of human behavior has not been calculated to “aid in
ss7ja [257]

The complete statement made by Stephen Hawking is: "though much of its behaviour through out history, has been pretty stupid, and not calculated to aid the survival of the species."

If one looks at our history, there are some events that defy our capacity for logical thinking. One would think that, as we possess this capacity, we would be able to direct our decisions towards the survival of the human species.

However, in many cases greed and the desire for personal gain have taken precedence. One good example was the burning of the great library of Alexandria, one of the most significant libraries in the ancient world. This magnificent collection was lost during the siege of Alexandria, when Julius Caesar set on fire the ships in the harbor.

Another example is the atomic bomb, when science has been used to invent one of the most destructive weapons known to us. Atomic warfare is still a threat that may end all life on Earth.

Furthermore, the greed of some corporations has led to multiple ecological catastrophes that endanger not only other species but our own future as well. One example is the Bhopal gas leak in India, where in 1984, due to poor maintenance, the chemical plant released 30 metric tons of methyl isocyanite into the atmosphere.

Igoryamba

Answer:

  1. Reduced risk of neural tube defects- <u>diet adequate in synthetic form of folate </u>
  2. Reduced risk of hypertension and stroke- <u>diet low in sodium and high in potassium </u>
  3. Reduced risk of cardiovascular disease- <u>fatty acids from oils present in fish </u>
  4. Reduced risk of some types of cancer- <u>diet rich in fiber</u>

Explanation:

As you may already know, the adequate intake of certain nutrients is very beneficial to our body and to improve and maintain our health. That's because these nutrients act in the construction of essential molecules to keep our body functioning in a healthy and adequate way. Among the numerous nutrients necessary for our health, we can mention that the adequate intake of folate has the ability to reduce the creation of possible defects in the neural tube, while a diet rich in potassium can reduce the risks of hypertension, especially if accompanied by a low sodium diet. Following this same reasoning, a diet rich in fiber can reduce the risk of cancer, in addition to promoting good bowel function. Last but not least, a diet rich in fatty acids from fish can reduce cardiovascular disease.
