Glacial lakes are bodies of water that are influenced by the presence of glaciers. ... Glacial lakes are common features around the margins of glaciers and ice sheets, and often evolve from ice-contact lakes into ice-distal lakes as glaciers and ice sheets margins retreat and become spatially separated from the lake.

What gases is contributing the most to causing global warming?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:(2010) analysed how individual components of the atmosphere contribute to the total greenhouse effect. They estimated that water vapor accounts for about 50% of Earth's greenhouse effect, with clouds contributing 25%, carbon dioxide 20%, and the minor greenhouse gases and aerosols accounting for the remaining 5%.

Imagine that five hypothetical genes are arranged on a chromosome in the following order: G--H--I--J--K. Which two genes are mos
andrezito [222]

Answer:

G and K

Explanation:

Crossing-over is a genetic phenomenon that occurs in meiosis, specifically, Prophase I. It is when chromosomal segment (genes) are exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes. Crossing-over occurs only to genes that are UNLINKED i.e. genes located on different chromosomes or far apart on the same chromosome.

This unlinked genes are said to have the highest RECOMBINATION FREQUENCY. Crossing-over allows genes on the same chromosome but far apart from each other, assort independently, which allows alleles to be recombined on the same chromosome. This phenomenon does not occur to genes that are close on the same chromosome as they will be inherited together as a unit.

In this case, G and K are the farthest apart, hence, they will have the highest RECOMBINATION FREQUENCY i.e. the likelihood for homologous crossing-over to take place during meiosis.

Very simply, when using metagenomics, distinctions between bacterial species are based upon what?
Alexeev081 [22]
Metagenomics is the study of genetic material recovered directly from environmental sample. Its field has been responsible for substantial advances in microbial ecology, evolution, and diversity over the past 5 to 10 years and many research laboratories are actively engaged in it now. Using metagenomics, the distinctions between bacterial species are based upon the comparison of DNA nucleotide sequences of different bacterial species.

Question 2: How and why did changes in the environmental conditions affect carrying capacity in this
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Changes occurs in the environmental conditions directly affect carrying capacity of the ecosystem.

Explanation:

Carrying capacity of the ecosystem refers to the capacity of the environment which adjust plants and animals in a specific atmospheric condition. Suppose in harsh winter, the temperature of the ecosystem is very low which is unbearable for most of the plant and animal species, so very low number of plants and animals are able to live in that environment. In the ecosystem where the winter is harsh and the spring is cold, the population of living organism are more decreasing. If the ecosystem has Harsh winter, Cold spring, and Hot summer, this type of environment hold very low number of living species due to high variation in the environment.
