Ozone is produced naturally in the stratosphere. But "good" ozone is referred to as ozone-depleting substances (ODS), including chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), halons, methyl bromide, carbon tetrachloride, and methyl chloroform. These were are sometimes still used in coolants, foaming agents, fire extinguishers, solvents, pesticides, and aerosol propellants. Once released into the air these ozone-depleting substances degrade really slowly. They can remain intact for years as they move through the troposphere until they reach the stratosphere.
Diabetic retinopathy as a result of chronically high blood sugar can cause blood vessels in the retina to hemorrhage, distorting vision.
Complete question:
Which organisms are secondary consumers in a temperate coniferous forest? Select all that apply:
Answer:
The lynx and the wolf are the only secondary consumers on the list.
Explanation:
In the trophic web, the energy transference occurs when each organism feeds on the preceding link and is eaten by the following link.
The first ones are the autotroph organism or producer, such as a vegetable, that can synthesize organic matter from inorganic matter.
The following links are the consumers: herbivores are primary consumers and feed on producers. <u>Carnivores are secondary consumers and feed on herbivores</u>, and so on. The last links are the decomposers, microorganisms that act on dead animals degrading organic matter.
According to the definition of secondary consumers, among the animals on the list, we can assume that the lynx and the wolf are the only secondary consumers. They are both carnivores and feed on herbivores.
On the other hand, the moose and the elk, are both first consumers.
The answer is D, I just did the test
The chance of the offsprings with stripe on head is 50%.
Option A.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Here according to the figures, the male is the brown one which has no stripe on his head as mentioned, and the female is the pink one who has a stripe on her head. The gene for the head stripe is denoted by H.
So the genotype of the father which is given as Hh. He is heterozygous.
The genotype of the mother should be hh as she has stripe and she must be homozygous recessive to have it.
So the gametes from father is H and h. Whereas the gametes from mother is only h.
So the genotype of the offsprings are Hh and hh as 50% each.
So the probability of the offspring being striped head is 50%.
