Answer:

Wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydropower also have environmental impacts, some of which are significant. Fossil fuels do substantially more harm than renewable energy sources by most measures. By understanding the potential environmental issues associated with each renewable energy source, we can takes steps to effectively avoid or minimize these impacts. Biomass power plants generate electricity from biomass that can be sustainably produced and utilized in the United States for energy and fuel, focusing on agricultural residues, waste materials, and forest biomass. In other regions enhanced geothermal systems (or hot dry rock geothermal), which involve drilling into the earth's surface to reach deeper geothermal resources, can allow broader access to geothermal energy.

Future of hydroelectric power in the United States will likely involve increased capacity at current dams and new run-of-the-river projects. Large-scale hydroelectric dams continue to be built in many parts of the world (including China and Brazil) There are environmental impacts at both types of plants. While actual impacts of large-scale operations have not been observed, a range of potential impacts can be projected.

Answer:

All energy sources have some impact on our environment. Fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—do substantially more harm than renewable energy sources by most measures, including air and water pollution, damage to public health, wildlife and habitat loss, water use, land use, and global warming emissions.

Why the location and quality of food sources in the soil are sometimes likely to stimulate random movements by C. Elegans, but a
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The Caenorhabditis elegans dauer state is a hibernation-like state of diapause that displays a dramatic reduction in spontaneous locomotion.

Explanation:

Mutations affecting the neurotransmitter dopamine, which regulates voluntary movement in many organisms, can stimulate movement in dauers. The movement of quiescent animals is stimulated by conditions that reduce dopamine signaling and also by conditions predicted to increase dopamine signaling.The stimulation of movement by increased dopamine is much more pronounced in quiescent daf-2(−) dauer and dauer-like adult animals.

In C. elegans hermaphrodites, dopamine is produced by eight neurons and signals via at least four dopamine receptors, DOP-1 through DOP-4. In addition, a presynaptic reuptake transporter, DAT-1, removes dopamine from the extracellular space to terminate signaling. In C. elegans, dopamine is best known for mediating the “basal slowing response” in which the animal's movement slows when it encounters food..  Dopamine is thought to be released in response to food and to act on motor neurons to modulate the animal's movement . Animals that cannot produce dopamine fail to slow in response to food and exogenous dopamine slows the movement of animals cultured without food.The response to dopamine in this situation is complex, as the absence of specific dopamine receptors can have either positive or negative effects on movement.

How does the insertion mutation affect the DNA?
gtnhenbr [62]
An insertion mutation occurs when an extra nucleotide is added to the DNA strand during replication. This can happen when the replicating strand "slips," or wrinkles, which allows the extra nucleotide to be incorporated (Figure 2). Strand slippage can also lead to deletion mutations. I’m not sure if this right but I tried

Which are the most dominant chemolithotrophs in pelagic waters?
Tomtit [17]
<span>The most dominant chemolithotrophs in pelagic waters are ammonia-oxidizing archaea. The first step in nitrification is performed by ammonia oxidising microorganisms that convert ammonia into nitrite ions. Science has known about nitrifying bacteria for over a hundred years now thanks to the discovery of S. Winogradsky.</span>
