Answer:

The two point sources of water pollution in the image are coal-burning power plant and factory.

Explanation:

Pollution refers to the release of waste and harmful substances to the environment. Substances which are harmful to the environment are known as pollutants.

Water pollution involves the contamination of water by pollutants making it unfit for human use such as such for drinking or cooking or for other uses.

The source of pollution water bodies have been divided into point and non-point sources of water pollution.

Point sources release pollutants from a single source and are transported directly through media such as a discharge pipe. The main point source of water pollution are factories and sewage treatment plants.

Nonpoint source pollution comes from various sources usually a combination of pollutants from a large area rather than from a specific sourc that can be easily identified such as discharge pipes. Most common is runoff water from city streets or agricultural settlements.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

The correct option is b. DNA ligase

Explanation:

DNA ligase is an enzyme that joins DNA fragments. If two DNA fragments or molecules have complementary ends, the ligase can join them together to form a single and intact DNA molecule, without interruptions. This is because the ligase enzyme seals the space between the molecules to form a single DNA fragment.  

The others enzymes have different functions:

DNA helicase is characterized by separating DNA from double strands into single strands and acts in DNA replication.

ATP methylase plays an important role in DNA replication when determining the beginning of replication that has already been replicated or not.

DNA polymerase is an enzyme that is responsible for catalyzing the polymerization of the new strand of DNA during the replication of this molecule.

Naily [24]

Answer:

Biological evolution

Explanation:

<em>Biological evolution is defined as the formation of complex organisms from single ancestral type over a large time period. Evolution believes that all living organisms descended from a common ancestor but not without modification.</em>

There are several evidence to support the theory of evolution including morphological evidence, paleontological evidence, biochemical evidence, among others.

The similarity in the structure and components of DNA of all living organisms is one of the evidence pointing to the fact that living organisms might truly have been from a common ancestor. In addition, all living organisms tend to use ATP largely as their source of energy, giving further credence to evolution theory.

Is blood clotting an example of a positive or negative feedback mechanism? Explain your answer based on the description of the m
serg [7]

Answer:

Blood clothing is an example of positive feedback.

This type of feedback mechanism is useful to the body because it multiplies the factor that intervenes in clotting accelerating the process.

If a toxin affects the molecules that signal for platelets the feedback will not be effective enough to produce clotting and the body will keep bleeding.

Explanation:

Blood clotting is an example of positive feedback due to the fact that when the vascular endothelium is damaged  platelets will go to this area and activate themselves once they are in contact with the collagen fibers of the damaged structure. When the platelets are activated they will release the contents that is stored in their granules. One of the contents is a Gq-linked protein receptor cascade,  that will increase the concentration of calcium in the platelets. Calcium activates protein kinase C, which, in turn, activates phospholipase A2 (PLA2). PLA2  will modifies  an  integrin membrane  increasing its affinity to bind fibrinogen. The activated platelets change their  shape , and the fibrinogen cross-links with the integrin membrane aiding  in  the aggregation of adjacent platelets. After this the coagulation cascade takes place. there are two pathways the extrinsic  and the extrinsic one.

The extrinsic pathway will be activated due to tissular factor released  by the platelets and the intrinsic pathway will be activated due to endothelial collagen. The final product of both pathways is factor x.

Factor x will transform prothrombin into thrombin will activate the conversion of fibrinogen into fibrin. Thrombin will form a net of fibrin that will the clot.

A cascade reaction is useful because every component of the cascade are related making a quick reaction once that one of then is activated and can activate other or more factors.

If a toxin affects the molecules that signals for platelets, platelets will not go to the damaged area and in consequence there will not be thrombin and fibrin to form the clot together with platelets.
