Identify how landforms and water effect climate

Biology
1 answer:
alexira [117]3 years ago

Oceans, a large lake, bay or gulf can act as a moderating influence on climate, resulting in cooler summers and warmer winters. For example, North America’s Great Lakes modify the temperature of air masses that travel across them, which produces a comparatively mild climate. At the same time, these air masses pick up a large amount of moisture from the lakes, which precipitates annually on the downwind shores in the form of heavy rain and snow.

Tall mountain ranges, like the Andes of South America and the Rockies of North America, act as an obstacle to traveling air masses, forcing them to rise over their lofty peaks. When this happens, air temperatures drop; as the water vapor cools, fog forms, and rain or snow may fall on the windward side of the mountain. When the same air mass descends on the other side of the mountain, it contains a minimal amount of water vapor. As a result, a "rain shadow" or dry climate develops on the far side of the mountain.

Hope this helps!

<span>The three domains of the tree of life are the Eubacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. The Eubacteria and Archaea are the organisms that do not have nuclei and cell organelles. Eukarya are all other organisms that include nuclei, which would later include animals, fungi, and plants in general.</span>

What unit of light stimulates photoreceptor cells in the retina?
wel

Answer:

Photons

Explanation:

The retina is a thin layer (membrane) in the eye that receives light through photoreceptor cells that convert this light into chemical and nervous signals transported to the brain's visual center.

The photoreceptors in the retina are known as rods and cones. Rods detect motion and sare responsible for black and white vision, they are present in the macula. Cones on the other and, are responsible for central and color vision. <em>These photoreceptors absorb photons that trigger the membrane's potential of the cells.</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

An unknown bacterium produces colorless colonies when inoculated onto an emb plate. predict what you would see if you inoculated
just olya [345]

The colourless colonies are only the gram-negative bacterium that will grow as the selective media Eosin Methylene Blue (EMB) followed by mannitol salt agar (MSA), which will only allow one type of microorganism to grow.

Eosin Methylene Blue (EMB) agar is a differential microbiological medium that gives a colour indicator to distinguish between organisms that digest lactose and those that do not while significantly inhibiting the development of Gram-positive bacteria. In laboratories, the selective medium is crucial for differentiating gram-negative microorganisms.

Both EMB (Eosin methylene blue) and Mannitol Salt Agar (MSA) are selective in that they only permit the growth of Gram-negative bacteria.
