The phrase “When it pours, the desert stores” refers that deserts have underground water reserves, so when it rains the desert stores water.

<h3>Is there water in the Sahara Desert?</h3>

Recently, a large amount of groundwater was identified in North Africa in the Sahara desert region, but at high depths that make it difficult for the poor population of the region to exploit it.

With this information, we can conclude that the phrase “When it pours, the desert stores” refers that deserts have underground water reserves, so when it rains the desert stores water.

The phrase refers to the water-storage abilities of desert plant species.

<h3>Adaptation for water storage</h3>

Desert plants such as cactus are well-adapted to store water for long-term usage when water is available.

This ability makes desert species to be able to withstand drought. The reserved water is utilized when water availability reduces or ceases totally.

Thus, when it rains, the desert species store water.

which is an example of biodiversity 900000 fires, deforestation, thousands of species carbon dioxide?
stira [4]

Answer:

Thousands of species is an example of biodiversity.

<u>Explanation: </u>

<em>Biodiversity is the short term for biological diversity which was coined by E.O. Wilson</em>. <em>Biodiversity refers to all the species of plants (flora) and animal Kingdom (fauna) present on the Earth.</em> It covers different types of ecosystems present in a well-defined area whether it be terrestrial or aquatic and the genetic variability within a species.

The variety of crops and livestock present on Earth have played a great role in human development. Without them, life would not be possible. That’s why it is our moral duty to conserve our biodiversity. If we preserve it for our future generations, we will survive.  If they are overused or misused, the entire food chain would perish.

suppose a cell wishes to make a protein that has 100 amino acid. How many water molecules will be created in the making of this
slega [8]
The answer is 99.

Amino acids <span>contain a carboxyl group (carbon-containing) and an amino group (nitrogen containing). Proteins are made by forming peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino group of amino acids.
</span>If a protein is made of 100 amino acids, that means there are 99 peptide bonds (because the last, 100th amino acid will not bind the next (101st) amino acid). For each peptide bond that is created, one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms are taken. Therefore, one water molecule is created for each peptide bond. If there are 99 peptide bonds, 99 water molecules are created.
