Biology
1 answer:
Nata [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Fracking can contaminate water supplies if it is not done properly, because the fracking fluid injected into rock to enable gas to be released often contains chemicals. If the borehole is not properly cased to stop leaks, the fracking water can escape into the aquifer

natta225 [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

The method of reproduction in humans is sexual reproduction: a type of reproduction that occurs when new organisms are produced through the coming together of genetic information from two individuals of different sexes mostly a male and a female (egg cell and the sperm). The genetic information for making the blood cells; the red blood cells genes in particular exists on chromosomes in the nucleus of the sex cells (egg and sperm cell) also called the gametes. Basically, the DNA provides instructions for the production of mostly all of the body's needs.

The genes coding for the sickle cells which is the abnormal red cell is always inherited in the recessive form meaning both parent has to possess one copy each of the defective gene in their DNA. For humans to get one copy of a sickle cell gene and one copy normal gene; it means one of the parents gametes (be it male or female) contributed the defective chromosome and the other normal gene is contributed by the other parent  during copulation giving rise to an individual that is heterozygous for the trait

For example, the sperm cell with the defective gene fertilizes the egg cell that has the normal copy of the gene producing an heterozgous individual.

1. Starting in the mouth, food follows a pathway through the digestive system. Describe how the mouth is involved in both mechan
ikadub [295]

Explanation:

1) Chemical digestion begins in the mouth when food mixes with saliva. Saliva contains an enzyme (amylase) that begins the breakdown of carbohydrates.

2) The daily values are reference amounts (expressed in grams, milligrams, or micrograms) of nutrients to consume or not to exceed each day. The %DV helps you determine if a seving of food is high or low in a nutrient.

3) If a food has a daily value of 5% or less of a nutrient, it is considered to be low in that nutrient.

A food is a good source of a nutrient if the percent daily value is between 10% and 19%, If the food has 20% or more of the daily value, it is considered an excellent source of that nutrient.

4) As food passes through the GI tract, it mixes with digestive juices, causing large molecules of food to break down into smaller molecules. The body then absorbs these smaller molecules through the walls of the small intestine into the bloodstream, which delivers them to the rest of the body.

5) During digestion, your pancreas makes pancreatic juices called enzymes. These enzymes break down sugars, fats, and starches. Your pancreas also helps your digestive system by making hormones. These are chemical messengers that travel through your blood.

Glad to help!!!!
