<h3><u>
The following events are identified as chemical weathering:</u></h3>
- The minerals in a marble statue react with water to form acids and pores in the structure.
- The rocks in a region are streaked orange after being exposed to repeated rains.
<em><u>Reason: </u></em>
When the weathering process occurs due to <em>chemical reaction</em>, then it is considered as chemical weathering.
In <em>the first case</em>, minerals of marble statue are <em>reacting</em> with water to cause weathering. In the <em>second case</em>, due to the <em>acidificaion reaction</em>, the change of the color has happened after exposure to the repeated rains.
<h3><u>
The following events are identified as Mechanical weathering:</u></h3>
- A piece of rock crumbles after being constantly thrashed by strong waves.
- Industrial runoff forms cracks in a rocky structure in its path.
<em><u>Reason:</u></em>
When the rock is broken into simple pieces <em>without any chemical reaction </em>it is considered as mechanical weathering.
In the <em>first cause</em>, due to the <em>abrasion</em> caused by the strong waves, weathering has happened, in the <em>second case</em> industrial run off may be of varying temperature and thus may cause <em>heating or cooling</em> of the rock and causes weathering.
Answer:
75% brown, 25% white
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for color in chickens. The allele for brown color (B) is dominant over the allele for white color (b).
According to this question, a brown rooter with genotype 'BB' was crossed with a white hen (bb). The offsprings in the F1 generation will all possess the 'Bb' genotype and be brown colored. However, if these F1 offsprings are self-mated i.e Bb × Bb, the proportion of F2 offsprings will be 1BB, 2Bb, 1bb.
Since BB, Bb and Bb offsprings are Brown in color and bb is white in color, this means that the expected phenotypic appearance of the F2 offsprings will be:
¾ or 75% brown and ¼ or 25% white
The answer is A (1) Prokaryotes
Answer:
The sympathetic chain contains a group of cell bodies called the sympathetic chain GANGLIA. This structure contains a second cell body for the sympathetic nervous system, the first in the series being found in the THORACOLUMBAR REGIONS' lateral horn of spinal segments T1-L2. The purpose of the VENTRAL AND DORSAL rami is to carry visceral motor and visceral sensory neurons to and from this sympathetic chain.
Explanation:
The sympathetic trunks (sympathetic chain, gangliated cord) are a paired bundle of nerve fibers that run from the base of the skull to the coccyx.

The correct matching of enzymes and their role in the process of DNA replication is A- 3, B- 5, C-1, D-2 and E-4.
Replication is the process of synthesis of two indentical copies of DNA from a single DNA molecule. It is catalyzed by a set of enzymes with the following function-
A. RNA primase synthesizes an RNA primer (short sequence of RNA) on the lagging strand complementary to the single stranded DNA which acts as template during DNA replication.
B. Ligase is involved in joining the okazaki fragments on the lagging strand together and sealing the nicks of the DNA strand.
C. Helicase separates the two DNA strands at the replication fork.
D. Polymerase synthesizes the complementary daughter strand by adding nucleotides to DNA.
E. Topoisomerase relaxes the highly coiled DNA by creating nick ahead of the replication fork in the phosphate backbone of DNA strands.
