Answer:
Cells carry out a variety of chemical transformations (i.e., cellular respiration, photosynthesis, and digestion) which allow conversion of energy from one form to another, the breakdown of molecules into smaller units, and the building of larger molecules from smaller ones.

Complete question
which of the following properties of water are essential for life on Earth?
A) polarity
B) Cohesion & Adhesion
C) High heat capacity
D) All the above
Solution
Some essential properties of water are as follows –
a) Polarity
b) Solvent
c) High heat capacity - it is essential to maintain the temperature on earth. The water bodies are comparatively cooler than the temperature of earth
d) High heat of vaporization
e) Cohesion – It is essential for surface tension & capillary action
f) Adhesion – It is essential for surface tension & capillary action
g) Lower freezing density – Due to this reason, ice is lighter than water
Hence, option D is correct
Answer:
Gut microflora is a combination of many different kinds of bacteria. Out of these, Lactobacillus bacteria, specifically, <em>Lactobacillius acidophilus</em> and <em>Lactobacillus bulgaricus </em>primarily help in the digestion of the milk sugar lactose. Probiotic bacteria in the gut microbiota, primarily, Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium help in the synthesis of vitamins.
Explanation:
Gut Microbiota:
Gut microbiota are the microorganisms that live inside the gastrointestinal tract and aid in various body functions. Also called commensal flora, many of these help in digestion and biosyntheisis of vitamins.
- Lactobacillus species are a predominant component of gut microbiota. Lactobacillus produces an enzyme called lactase that breaks down lactose sugar in milk.
- Complex sugars in vegetables and fruits are broken down, mostly, by gut microbiota.
- Probiotic bacteria, Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species aid the biosynthesis of various vitamins and nutrients such as:
- Vitamin K and most of the water‐soluble B vitamins, such as biotin, cobalamin, folates, nicotinic acid, panthotenic acid, pyridoxine, riboflavin, and thiamine.
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Normal height - H
Short height - h
Heterozygous - Hh
A cross involving heterozygotes would be Hh x Hh
Hh x Hh
HH Hh Hh hh
Since H is dominant over h;
HH and Hh would produce normal height phenotypes.
hh will produce a short height phenotype.
Thus;
<em>Probability of normal height phenotype resulting from the cross = 3/4 or 75%</em>
<em>Probability of short height phenotype resulting from the cross = 1/4 or 25%</em>
A divergent boundary plates moves away from each other.
