capable of producing very large earthquakes if rupture occurs along its entire length.

dimaraw [331]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The magnitude of a megathrust earthquake is proportional to length of the rupture along the fault. ... Because of the great length of the fault, the Cascadia Subduction Zone is capable of producing very large earthquakes if rupture occurs along its entire length.

X has successfully been transmitted to your body; you are now infected. All of the following among A-D are possible consequences
Natasha2012 [34]

The complete options to the question includes:

A.You never show any symptoms of disease and there is no sign of the pathogen in your body.

B.You exhibit mild symptoms of disease and the levels of the pathogen in your body are quickly reduced and eliminated.

C.You succumb to the worst effects of the disease but survive due to administration of antimicrobial agents.

D.You never show any symptoms of disease, but the pathogen persists in your body.

E.There are no exceptions, A-D are all plausible outcomes.

Answer: The correct option is A (You never show any symptoms of disease and there is no sign of the pathogen in your body).

Explanation:

Infectious diseases occurs when an individuals system is invaded by pathogenic microorganisms (virus,bacteria,fungi and parasite). These microorganisms may or may not cause disease but this depends on the healthy state of the host. They can also be transmitted from one person to another.

To explain the options why all are plausible outcomes when X has successfully been transmitted into the body except A includes:

B) option B can occur when the immune system of the host is able to combat X.

C.) Option C can occur when antimicrobial is given to suppress the activities of X

D) option D can occur when the individual may become an asymptomatic carrier of X. ( Individual shows no symptoms and signs of disease caused by X but the pathogen is still present in the body).

But option A is not possible as X must be present to show there was a transmission.

Analyze the data about nitrogenous base content of DNA from various species. Percentages of Bases in Five Organisms Source of DN
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

When analyzing data on the nitrogenous base content of the DNA of various species, the claims are supported by the data:

  • <em>In any one species, the amount of adenine closely approximates that of thymine.  </em>
  • <em>In any one species, the amount of guanine closely approximates that of cytosine.  </em>
  • <em>The amounts of A, T, G, and C in DNA varies from species to species. </em>

<em>(options A, B and D)</em>

Explanation:

Organizing the data has to:

<u>Source of DNA      A            T            G            C </u>

Streptococcus    29.8       31.6        20.5       18.0

Yeast                   31.3        32.9       18.7         17.1

Herring                27.8       27.5       22.2       22.6

Human                30.9       29.4       19.9        19.8

E. Coli                  24.7       23.6        26.0      25.7

DNA is the molecule that contains the genetic information of each species, formed by sequences of nitrogenous bases Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine.

Since Adenine and Thymine -as well as Cytosine and Guanina- are complementary, the percentage of them will be very similar in each DNA molecule.

The genetic information -which determines the physical and functional characteristics of each organism- is encoded in the DNA and is different for each species, so the percentages of nitrogenous bases vary from species to species.

What is one role of ATP in the light-independent reaction of photosynthesis?
azamat
Adenosine Triphosphate is a compound used by the cell to store energy. Together with NADP, ATP is responsible for carbon dioxide reduction. Carbon dioxide is said to be reduced when it loses oxygen, reacts with hydrogen or gains electrons. Carbon dioxide becomes part of Glycerate 3-phosphate.
