Answer:

Tsunamis are caused by violent seafloor movement associated with earthquakes, landslides, lava entering the sea, seamount collapse, or meteorite impact. The most common cause is earthquakes. See the percentages on the right for the geological events that cause tsunamis. Note that 72% of tsunamis are generated by earthquakes. A disturbance that displaces a large water mass from its equilibrium position can cause a tsunami.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Under anaerobic condition pyruvate is converted into lactate.

Explanation:

Human muscles use both anaerobic and aerobic respiration for the production of ATP. During the starting of intense activity, the oxygen supply is not enough to provide instant energy to the muscle, therefore, muscles use anaerobic respiration to generate ATP.

During anaerobic respiration, muscle do not use oxygen to burn glucose. During anaerobic respiration in muscles, the glucose is converted into pyruvate and then this pyruvate gets convert into lactate and this process is called lactic acid fermentation. In this process, 2 ATP are produced.

Why are the terms dominant and recessive misleading?
sleet_krkn [62]
<span>They are misleading, because dominant alleles do not dominate or prevent recessive alleles from doing a job. Also, one allele can be considered dominant in one regard and recessive in another. It just depends on what you are trying to do with it.</span>
