Answer:
The correct answer to the question, 'which of the following scenarios is representative of how agricultural practice can affect the environment' is A. Option A is chosen because it is the only option that refer to another environment which is different from that of the farm. When fertilizers are washed to nearby ponds as a result of erosion, it causes a lot of negative changes in the pond. For instance, the chemicals in the fertilizer can be poisonous to some of the smaller organisms in the pond, this will result in the death of these organisms. Fertilizer run off can also cause excessive growth of plants such as algae in the pond. This may block out the light necessary for the survival of the organisms in the ponds and may also reduce the amount of oxygen available to the organisms living in the pond.
Explanation:
When the two waves meet, there are two possibilities:
1.If the waves were both in phase and moving in the same direction, then, the amplitude will double, this is called constructive interference.
2. If the two waves were exactly out of phase, then they will try to move the water surface in all directions, thus, no movement and the waves cancel out. This is called destructive interference.
Answer:
Xiao can use these structures to create a similarity matrix that enables to differentiate between synapomorphies and homoplasies
.
Explanation:
A synapomorphy is a trait that has been inherited from the same ancestor, this trait enables to establish a relation of homology between two or more species; while a homoplasy is an analog structure that doesn't have homology.
Answer:
Extension
Explanation:
Polymerase chain reaction is given by Kary Mullis and it contains three steps denaturation, annealing, and extension. In denaturation, the temperature is raised to 96° c so that the DNA can denature.
In annealing, the temperature gets reduced to 55°c so that the primer can bind to the complementary sequence. In extension, Taq polymerase is used to extend the new strand.
This enzyme is isolated from thermophilic bacteria and the temperature here is raised to 72°c so that the enzyme can extend the primer and make the complementary strand. So the right answer is extension.
In active transport, materials move from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration (goes down the concentration gradient) and it requires or uses energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)
