Answer:

A mutation that causes female pigs to have fewer offspring

Explanation:

In the farming industry, more product is better. If cows produced more milk, farmers would make more money.

If sheep produced more wool, the farmers would profit.

If there was an increased crop yield, the farmers would benefit.

However, fewer pigs means less money, so that is the only possible answer.

What environmental worldview is seen by critics as focused on short-term economic benefits with little regard for long term harm
attashe74 [19]
I believe the answer is the global free-market approach.
It is because on continually increasing use of earth's natural capital, and it focuses on short term economic benefits with little regard for degradation and depletion of natural capital and resulting long-term harmful environmental, health, and social consequences. Environmental world views are the ways of thinking about how the world work and beliefs that people hold about their roles in the natural world, another factor is widespread lack of understanding of how earth's life-support system works, keeps us alive, and supports economies.

What is the main thing that drives water to move up from roots through the stem or trunk and to the leaves in plants?.
Sergio039 [100]

As water molecules from plant leaves evaporate, they attract the water molecules that are still present in the plant, aiding in the movement of water from the roots up through the stems. The water in a plant is transported from the bottom to the top by the combined effects of transpiration and capillary action.

  • Water molecules ascend up the cellulose tubes from the roots to the leaves because they tend to cling together (cohesion) and stick to the walls of tubes (adhesion). The water from the leaves then evaporates, aiding in the root system's ability to absorb additional water. We call this mechanism capillary action.
  • Water and minerals travel upward from the roots through the xylem due to a negative water potential gradient created by the evaporation of mesophyll cells in the leaves. Small perforations between vessel elements must be made to reduce gas bubbles in the xylem since they can obstruct water flow in the plant.

1. John observed bacteria at 100X under the oil immersion and then decided to go back to 40X
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The observed image will not be sharp

Explanation:

When 100x microscope objective lens is being used, light refraction in the air is enough high to produce image alterations. Image distortions can be minimized by immersion oil because this liquid has a higher refractive index than air. However, light refraction is not usually noticeable when using 4x, 10x and 40x objective lenses. Moreover, this image will not be sharp after putting oil on the slide and going back to the 40x objective, it is for that reason that the 40x is called 'high dry' lens. In consequence, it is required to clean the immersion oil off the 40x objective. In general, it is required to  to remove the oil and refocus off the slide and lens immediately after oil immersion (it can be done by using an oil-soluble solvent).
