<h3>The aspects of the soil</h3>

In order to determine the aspects of the soil we need to know....

  • Physical Aspect

The texture of a soil is related to the size of the grains that form it. A soil has different amounts of sand, clay, organic matter, water, air and minerals. The way these components are organized represents the structure of the soil. A well-structured soil should be soft and porous allowing the penetration of water and air, as well as small animals and roots.

  • Chemical Aspect

It relates to the nutrients that will be used by plants. These nutrients, dissolved in the soil water (solution), penetrate through plant roots. How we deal in the matter of Macro and Micronutrients.

  • Biological Aspect

It deals with living organisms in the soil, which act on the physical and chemical aspects of a soil. Life in the soil is only possible where air, water and nutrients are available. A soil with the presence of living organisms indicates good soil structure conditions. Soil microorganisms are the main agents for chemically transforming nutrients, making them available for absorption by plant roots.

<h3>Viewing these conditions, my backyard has a sandy aspect.</h3>
  • Features of my backyard
  • Sandy soil

It has a greater amount of sand than the average (contains about 70% sand). They dry quickly because they are very porous and permeable: they have large spaces (pores) between the grains of sand. The water then passes easily between the grains of sand and soon reaches the deeper layers. Mineral salts, which serve as nutrients for plants, go along with the water. Therefore, sandy soils are generally poor in nutrients used by plants. Need correction and fertilization.

the soil in my backyard is sandy.

In a population of cats, the phenotypic frequency of black cats is 91%, and the phenotypic frequency of white cats is 9%. Assumi
Talja [164]

Answer:

1. Allele frequency of b = 0.09 (or 9%)

2. Allele frequency of B = 0.91 (0.91%)

3. Genotype frequency of BB = 0.8281 (or 82.81%)

4. Genotype frequency of Bb = 0.1638 (or 16.38%)

Explanation:

Given that:

p = the frequency of the dominant allele (represented here by B)  = 0.91

q = the frequency of the recessive allele (represented here by b)  = 0.09

For a population in genetic equilibrium:

p + q = 1.0 (The sum of the frequencies of both alleles is 100%.)

(p + q)^2 = 1

Therefore:

p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1

in which:  

p^2 = frequency of BB (homozygous dominant)

2pq = frequency of Bb (heterozygous)

q^2 = frequency of bb (homozygous recessive)

p^2 = 0.91^2 = 0.8281

2pq = 2(0.91)(0.9) = 0.1638

What is the process of using living organisms to detoxify a location
dmitriy555 [2]
Bioremediation is the process of using living organisms to detoxify a location. Microbes are used to clean up contaminated soil and groundwater. The organisms that are used in this process are: bacteria, fungi, archaea. For example, b<span>acteria are introduced to the area of the spill where they break down the hydrocarbons of the oil into carbon dioxide;</span>..
