In order for an organism to decompose to the point that only dry bones will remain, it is estimated that in warm and humid environments the process will take roughly three weeks, In which case the options of Days 26-43 as well as after day 50 are correct.

Decomposition is what happens to any dead organic material. Decomposition is when the organic material is broken down into smaller compounds, organic or not. This process is affected by a variety of conditions including:

  • Temperature
  • Humidity
  • Presence and species of insects
  • Elements to which the material is exposed

and so on. Each of these factors can greatly impact how fast something will decompose.

The question at hand gives us the conditions for the fastest decomposition, given that this process is accelerated in warm and humid conditions. When in these conditions, it is estimated that an organism can take a minimum of three weeks to reach the stage in which all that is left is the skeleton (dry bones).

Three weeks consists of 21 days, however, option 6 that states "Days 18-25" is not being included given that during days 18-21, elements other than bones may still be present. For this reason, <u>the correct answer is any day after day 21, that is, </u><u>days 22-50+</u><u>.</u> Therefore, <u>options 5</u><u> and </u><u>3 </u><u>can both be considered correct</u> as in those days only dry bones will remain.

During an earthquake, the ground surface ____.
shtirl [24]

The correct answer is (c) Can move in any direction.

The movement of tectonic plates that led to the shaking of surface of the earth. The energy is released in the form of seismic waves. The place from where the earthquake starts is called focus. These waves are very intense. There are two more types of waves that are responsible for the movement of ground surface. The raylegh wave makes the ground surface move up and down. They cause most of the movement of ground. The side to side movement of ground surface is controlled by love wave.

How does young stem gives mechanical support to the plant body?
kodGreya [7K]

One is through turgidity. This occurs before ground tissue ( collenchyma and sclerenchyma cells) become well developed to give structural support to the plant as it grows bigger. The xylem tissue (composed of rigid tissue) of the young plant helps render this support and also maintaining osmotic turgidity of the surrounding plant cells.

In pea plants, tallness (T) is dominant to shortness (t). What is the predicted genotypic ratio of the offspring if a homozygous
tino4ka555 [31]
First, to answer this question, you need to draw a Punnett square. So you put the homozygous short alleles (tt) on top of the square, and the heterozygous tall alleles (Tt) on the left side of the square (or vice versa, it doesn't really matter).

When you create the Punnett Square, you then perform the cross between the two plants' alleles. I cross t with T and that gives me Tt. Same with the next one, t and T becomes Tt. Then, I cross t with t and that gives me tt. Same with the next one, t and t becomes tt.

So, the answer here would then be c. 50 percent Tt, 50 percent tt. You might say, well, couldn't answer d also work? Answer d could only work if the question was asking for the phenotypic ratio of the offspring. Then you could say 50% tall, 50% short. But the question asks for the genotypic ratio, so it would instead be c. 50 percent Tt, 50 percent tt.

Hope this helps!
