Which statement contrasts viruses and bacteria?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Viruses can replicate inside cells, while bacteria release toxins to destroy cells.

Explanation:

Viruses and bacteria are both considered microorganisms that can be pathogens. Bacteria are singled celled organisms, where as viruses are non-cellular. Therefore, viruses are sometimes considered non-living, or "on the edge of life"

Viruses consist of (at the minimum) a genome surrounded by a protein coat. To replicate, they have to insert their genome into a host cell. This is another reason they are sometimes considered non living.

In contrast, bacteria can release toxins but do not replicate inside cells.

Therefore, the answer is viruses can replicate inside cells, while bacteria release toxins to destroy cells.

Explain what power companies in your area are doing to reduce dependence on nonrenewable energy sources.
madreJ [45]

Answer

• Driving a more fuel-efficient car to eliminate “gas guzzling”

• Reducing heating needs

• Reducing lighting needs

Explanation

The three best strategies employed worldwide for conserving non-renewable energy resources are Reduce, Reuse and Recycle( 3R’s). Energy users are encouraged to increase reliance on renewable energies such as solar, wind and geothermal to aid in conserving the scarce fossil fuel that remain.

Walking and biking can be used as a strategy to cut down gas guzzling and manage the limited nonrenewable oil resources. One popular way of heating homes is oil heating. However, the conserve the oil, home owners are supposed to put up storm windows and insulate homes including caulking cracks around doors and windows to reduce heating costs. When using natural gas, users can reduce energy wasting by keeping the thermostat at 70 degrees and shutting off heat when not in use.

The San Francisco earthquake of 1906 occurred along what fault? A. the San Francisco fault B. the California fault C. the San An
Lina20 [59]

The correct answer is - C. the San Andreas fault.

San Francisco, as most of the western of California, is lying in close proximity to the San Andreas fault. This fault is a continental transform fault that is formed as a result of the transform boundary between the Pacific plate and the North American plate, with a small plate lying in between them. Because of the horizontal movement of the plates and the pressure they cause to one another, there's constant adjustments inside the crust, and that contributes to lot of earthquakes in the region. One of those earthquakes was the San Francisco earthquake of 1906, a very strong and devastating earthquake, often considered as the worst earthquake in the history of the United States.

Why does a maritime tropical (mt) air mass tend to bring humid weather<br>and showers?​
klemol [59]

Answer:

Maritime tropical air masses originate over the warm waters of the tropics and Gulf of Mexico, where heat and moisture are transferred to the overlying air from the waters below. The northward movement of tropical air masses moves warm moist air into the United States, increasing the chances for precipitation.

What is the role of Temperature, density and air pressure in a convection cell?
scZoUnD [109]

Convection is a process which transfers the heat between the temperatures when fluid (i.e. liquid or gas) is in motion. Due to the presence of heat source, water temperature increases and also it will become less dense and rise. Hot air is less dense than cold. When air rises higher in the atmosphere its pressure gets down and it becomes colder.
