What is one effect of methane gas being released into Earth’s atmosphere? *

Biology

Answer:

An increase in the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere

Liquid; gas

Lacking oxygen

To decrease the temperature in the compost pile

Explanation:

1.  Methane is one of the greenhouse gases. When these gases are released into the atmosphere, they increase the temperature of the earth surface because they trap heat within the earth. Other examples are carbon dioxide and water vapor.

2. Evaporation is a phase change from liquid to gas. During this process, heat is supplied to a liquid. When the molecules of the liquid gain enough energy, they then begin to break off into gaseous form. The reverse process of evaporation is condensation.

3.  Anaerobic is a process that lacks oxygen. Aerobic processes are carried out with the availability of oxygen.  

4. The reason why compost should be regularly mixed is to decrease the temperature in the compost pile. Portions of the compost can have a higher temperature than other parts. Therefore, mixing the compost will help to redistribute the heat in the compost.

<h2>DNA </h2>

Explanation:    

1) Experiment done by Griffith:

  • Griffith used two related strains of bacteria, known as R and S
  • R bacteria were nonvirulent, meaning that they did not cause sickness when injected into a mouse whereas mice injected with live S bacteria developed pneumonia and died
  • Griffith tried injecting mice with heat-killed S bacteria (that is, S bacteria that had been heated to high temperatures, causing the cells to die), the heat-killed S bacteria did not cause disease in mice
  • When harmless R bacteria were combined with harmless heat-killed S bacteria and injected into a mouse, not only did the mouse developed disease and died, but when Griffith took a blood sample from the dead mouse, he found that it contained living S bacteria
  • Griffith concluded that the R-strain bacteria must have taken up what he called a transforming principle from the heat-killed S bacteria, which allowed them to transform into smooth-coated bacteria and become virulent

2) Experiment done by Avery:

  • Avery, McCarty and MacLeod set out to identify Griffith's transforming principle
  • They began with large cultures of heat-killed S cells and, through a long series of biochemical steps progressively purified the transforming principle by washing away, separating out, or enzymatically destroying the other cellular components
  • These results all pointed to DNA as the likely transforming principle but Avery was cautious in interpreting his results
  • He realized that it was still possible that some contaminating substance present in small amounts, not DNA, was the actual transforming principle

3) Experiment done by Hershey and Chase:

  • Hershey and Chase studied bacteriophage, or viruses that attack bacteria
  • The phages they used were simple particles composed of protein and DNA, with the outer structures made of protein and the inner core consisting of DNA
  • Hershey and Chase concluded that DNA, not protein, was injected into host cells and made up the genetic material of the phage

Why/how is biodiversity essential to the health of an ecosystem
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Biodiversity is the amount of variety of life on Earth.

Explanation:

Biodiversity boosts ecosystem productivity where each species, no matter how small, it has an important role to play.

<u>For example,</u>

a larger number of plant species means a greater variety of crops. Greater species diversity ensures natural sustainability for all forms of life.

Answer:

Part of the extracellular matrix secreted by osteocytes. (Ans. B)

Explanation:

Cells which are present on bones are known as osteocytes. Bone is composed of extracellular matrix, and cells. There are three types of cells which are present in the bones:

1) Osteoprogenitor cells.

2) Osteoblast.

3) Osteocyte.

Extracellular matrix is composed of organic matrix consisting glycoproteins, proteoglycans, osteocalcin also known as calcium binding proteins, and osteonectin which anchors bone mineral to collagen.
