Answer:

prairie plants

Explanation:

Roots of prairie plants are developed through centuries of growth. These deep roots will take the carbon out of the air add nutrients to the soil when they die, contributing to rich soil.

Prairie plants are especially adept at storing carbon, locking up large amounts in their roots. In fact, prairies store more carbon below ground than a forest stores above! Deep, complex prairie root systems sequester (store) carbon and – with the help of microorganisms – move it to the soil where it stabilizes.

What would most likely be the outcome to planar cell polarity if calcium were removed from the tissue?
andrew-mc [135]

<u>Answer:</u>

If calcium were removed from the tissue then the polarity will be established within the cell but polarity will be lost in the tissue.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Cell polarity is the cellular components like cytoplasm, plasma membranes and other various cell organelles in the asymmetric order.
  • The coordinated arrangement of this cell polarity in tissue plane is called as planar cell polarity (PCP).
  • Calcium is the major component in the tissues that helps in formation of bones and other parts of body, if it is removed then the polarity will not be seen in the tissue, but in the cell the polarity will be established.

Chloride ions, Cl-, follow actively transported Na+ ions from the nephrons into the blood. Would you not expect the Cl- concentr
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Bicarbonate ion, HCO3- (which has a similar charge to chloride ions) also follow sodium ions into the blood. Also, potassium ions, K+ are transported into the nephron so some chloride ions and bicarbonate ions remains in the nephron to balance the charge.

Explanation:

Sodium is the primary positively charged electrolyte in extracellular fluid. Most of the solute reabsorbed in the proximal tubule is in the form of sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride. Water is also reabsorbed in order to balance osmotic pressure

When sodium ions are reabsorbed into the blood, few of the substances that are transported with Na+ on the membrane facing the lumen of the tubules include Cl- ions, Ca2+ ions, amino acids, and glucose. Sodium is actively exchanged for K+ using ATP on the basal membrane.

In the distal convoluted tubule, K+ and H+ ions are selectively secreted into the filtrate, while Na+, Cl-, and HCO3- ions are reabsorbed to maintain pH and electrolyte balance in the blood.

Some chloride ions remains in the nephron to balance the charge of the secreted K+ ions and also due to the bicarbonate ions that are removed.

Insertion and deletion mutations are said to cause shifts in the reading gram of the mRNA. Substitution mutations do not cause t
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Explanation:

A frameshift mutation  is an insertion or deletion in a sequence of DNA which disrupts the way the code is read. It occurs when the codons undergo a disruption through the deletion or insertion of one or multiple nucleotides (given that the number removed or added are not multiples of 3) - this alters the open reading frame; the amino acids produced through translation simply occur in a different sequence.

Further Explanation:

During the process of cell division, spontaneous changes within the genome can arise. These mutations are errors occur when copies of the DNA within the cell are made; mutations may range from small changes called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large scale deletions, and additions which span multiple genes. There are two types:

  • somatic: these only occur within certain cells, and arise from environmental factors such as UV light
  • hereditary: occur within germ cells of the parent and later the fertilized egg which forms a zygote; these are present within all cells of the new organism.

How would you describe symmetry in invertebrates?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Invertebrates can have bilateral or radial symmetry, or they can be asymmetrical. Bilateral symmetry means that the animal is arranged in the same way on both sides. Radial symmetry means the body parts are arranged in a circle around a central point.
