Answer:
- Can leverage Next Generation Sequencing technology to identify and characterize organisms
- Has resources to support analysis at the DOE-JGI site.
- Can identify microbiologic organisms without traditional isolation and culturing of individual organisms.
Explanation:
Metagenomics can be defined as the study of whole genomes of biological communities recovered from environmental samples. This genomic field has enabled the discovery of new species (microorganisms) and their effects on the environment. Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies allow to obtain huge amounts of genomic data, which has been a limitation in genomics and metagenomics. Metagenomic NGS (mNGS) is a technique used for sequencing nucleic acids present in a biological sample containing mixed populations of microorganisms. Finally, the Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (DOE JGI) is a referent in metagenomic analysis, especially in genome assembly data obtained from microbial communities. This Science User Facility has developed a series of bioinformatics tools and databases in order to analyze metagenomic information.

Option B i.e A Divide is the correct answer.
The Rocky mountains are also called a Divide or Continental Divide of Americas because these mountains separate river system flow in the pacific ocean and the river system which flows in the Atlantic ocean. The Continental divide is also called as the Great Divide.
The correct answer is - 1) inverted pyramid, with a narrow base representing a small number of young individuals.
The populations that are decreasing are usually population in countries that are highly developed. The conditions for living are excellent, the medical care on high level, life expectancy very high, but the birth rates very low.
In this type of conditions, there's smaller and smaller number of young individuals, with the middle aged population being much bigger, and the older population being constantly on the rise. This will give the age-structure histogram a reverse shape than what it is supposed to have, it will be similar in appearance like a inverted pyramid, meaning that the population is aging and that it will be constantly on a decline in the future.
<u>Answer;</u>
C) organic matter; rocks.
The uppermost horizon, horizon O, in this profile is composed mostly of <u>organic matter</u>, while the lower horizon, horizon C, is composed mostly of <u>rocks.</u>
<u>Explanation;</u>
-Soil contains the following major horizons, that is A B and C. Some soils may have horizon O, which may be thin or thick or even lack in some soils. This O horizon is found at the surface of many soils and normally contains organic materials at various decomposition stages. these are materials such as plants, leaves and bugs.
-C horizon is the layer that is below the B horizon. It contains larger weathered fragments or broken up-bedrock.
