What is the source of energy that powers a hydroelectric power plant?

Biology
1 answer:
Verdich [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:  Given your four choices, the best/most correct one would be (c) the sunlight that evaporated water that eventually falls as rain and fills the reservoir. It is the potential energy stored in the reservoir water which is "released" as it is converted to kinetic energy (the movement of water which spins the hydroelectric generator turbine, etc.), but the absolute source of that original potential energy comes from the Sun's action to evaporate lake or ocean water which is returned to Earth as rain ... and it is this rainwater which ultimately fills the reservoir behind the hydroelectric power plant.

In the hershey-chase experiment, bacterial cultures infected with a virus were agitated in a kitchen blender to _____.
Phantasy [73]

The Hershey and Chase experiments showed that the inherited genetic material was DNA (deoxyribonucleic acids). In this experiment, the scientists labelled the DNA molecule with a radioactive isotope of phosphorus.

Centrifugation causes the separation of different components according to their size. So, by blending, they centrifugated the mixture of virus and the bacteria, which separated the viral protein capsule and the bacteria. Later, they found that the virus infected bacteria contains the DNA of bacteria, not the protein.

Hence, bacterial cultures infected with a virus were agitated in a kitchen blender to separate the protein coat of virus from the bacteria.
