What uses a nonrenewable energy resource to generate energy
Alinara [238K]

Energy sources are classified as nonrenewable because they do not form or replenish in a short period of time. Renewable energy sources such as solar and wind replenish naturally in a short period of time.

The four major nonrenewable energy sources are

<span>- Crude oil
- Natural gas
- Coal
- Uranium (nuclear energy) </span>

Nonrenewable energy sources come out of the ground as liquids, gases, and solids. We use crude oil to make liquid petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel fuel, and heating oil. Propane and other hydrocarbon gas liquids, such as butane and ethane, are found in natural gas and crude oil.

All fossil fuels are nonrenewable, but not all nonrenewable energy sources are fossil fuels

Coal, crude oil, and natural gas are all considered fossil fuels because they were formed from the buried remains of plants and animals that lived millions of years ago.

Uranium ore, a solid, is mined and converted to a fuel used at nuclear power plants. Uranium is not a fossil fuel, but it is classified as a nonrenewable fuel.

In addition to identifying the genetic material, the experiments of Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty with different strains of Strept
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

DNA may be taken up by bacterial cells and be active.

Explanation:

To understand Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty's experiment, it is important to know Frederick Griffith's precursor experiment. The microbiologist worked at the British Ministry of Health's Pathology Laboratory with pneumococci (commonly known as the bacterium Streptococcus pneumoniae, then known as Pneumococcus, which causes pneumonia), which were previously classified into several types. When cultured in petri dishes in the laboratory, the pneumococci that synthesize their capsules generate 'smooth' colonies. Subcutaneous injection of liquid culture of these pneumococci into mice causes their death.  However, in vitro culture also allows the emergence of rough colonies', whose bacteria have lost the ability to synthesize mucopolysaccharide (and therefore have no capsules). Rough mutants could no longer be classified with sera and, moreover, lost their virulence: mice inoculated with them remained alive, unlike inoculated with smooth pneumococci.

The nature of Griffith's transforming principle remained unclear until the work of Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty. They repeated the in vitro transformation of pneumococci at the Rockfeller Institute for Medical Research, but replaced heat-dead cells with a purified fraction of smooth bacterial extract (unable to cause disease alone) and treated the material with different enzymes, each capable of destroying a specific type of macromolecule.  Experience has shown that this fraction retained its transforming capacity when treated with protein or RNA degrading enzymes, but lost that ability when treated with DNA degrading enzymes. These results indicated that the chemical nature of the 'transforming principle' was DNA.

Thus, we can conclude that in addition to identifying genetic material, Avery, MacLeod and McCarty experiments with different strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae demonstrated that DNA can be absorbed by bacterial cells and be active.

HELP PLEASE!! Field test is done on the milkweed in the wild and the clothianidin content per plant was about 1 ppb. larvae spen
MrMuchimi

Answer:

In the question it is given that the milkweed with clothianidin above the 1ppb concentration will result in less successful hatching of monarch butterfly eggs. Along with the data from the experiments, the exposure of clothianidin on the monarch habitats will lead to a decrease in the population of the monarch butterfly initially. Then in later generations if any mutation occurs and a resistant butterfly is developed then the population of the monarch butterfly will recover. But without this mutation the population size will be reduced and the size and weight of the butterfly will also get reduced.
