Biology

Answer:In the nucleus of each cell, the DNA molecule is packaged into thread-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around proteins called histones that support its structure.

Chromosomes are not visible in the cell’s nucleus—not even under a microscope—when the cell is not dividing. However, the DNA that makes up chromosomes becomes more tightly packed during cell division and is then visible under a microscope. Most of what researchers know about chromosomes was learned by observing chromosomes during cell division.

Each chromosome has a constriction point called the centromere, which divides the chromosome into two sections, or “arms.” The short arm of the chromosome is labeled the “p arm.” The long arm of the chromosome is labeled the “q arm.” The location of the centromere on each chromosome gives the chromosome its characteristic shape, and can be used to help describe the location of specific genes.

Answer: If a land fertilizer were used on the algae it would severely damage the plant and suffocate it.

Explanation: Fertilizers are used by homeowners to maintain and improve landscape beauty and quality. In recent years, increased use of home lawn and garden fertilizers has caused concern about pollution of lakes and groundwater. Proper fertilizer application can enhance plant growth without polluting the environment. Yet, misuse of fertilizer may not only harm the environment—especially ground and surface water—but may in fact result in injury to landscape plants as well. The nutrient phosphorus harms clear, free water by creating algal blooms. This process, known as eutrophication, turns the water green, clouds the water, causes odor problems, and depletes the oxygen for fish and other species, effectively suffocating them.

erik [133]

-Integrative therapy or treatment focuses on the goals of the patient and family in the context of values, culture, and community. It is a progressive form of psychotherapy that combines different therapeutic tools and approaches to fit the needs of the individual client.

-Integrative therapy is more inclusive of the client than traditional forms of therapy, where the client plays a less active role in treatment.
