Answer:
The rain forests would absorb more incoming solar radiation because rain forests have darker colors and rougher surfaces than deserts. Dark colors absorb more energy than light colors and rough surfaces absorb more energy than smooth surfaces.
Explanation:
correct on Ed
The energy absorbed by rain forests is more than the desert from the incoming solar radiation.
Why Rain forest absorbs more energy than the desert?
Rain Forests are characterized as closed and continuous tree canopy, moisture dependent vegetation.
These are characterized by a warm and wet climate with no substantial dry season along with receiving an average rainfall of not less than 168 cm and exceed 1000 cm.
Desert on the other hand is a barren landscape with little precipitation and living conditions are hostile for plants and animals.
The rain forest absorb more energy than desert because:
- Darker appearance resulting into more absorption
-Thick canopy which prevents the light to penetrate deeply
- Forests are hard and erect whereas deserts have loose granules thus cannot absorb more energy as it keeps on dispersing.
A natural rainforest emits and absorbs vast quantities of Carbon Dioxide and on a global scale, long term fluxes are approximately in balance so that an undisturbed rainforest would have a net impact on atmospheric CO2 levels.

Which of the following types of RNA are NOT used in translation?
A. mRNA
B. Trna
C. Rrna
D.none of the above
I would go with none of the above
All the listed types of RNA (mRNA, tRNA, rRNA) are involved in the translation process, making the correct answer D. none of the above.
Translation is the process of protein synthesis where different types of RNA play essential roles. The three main types of RNA involved in this process are:
mRNA (messenger RNA): Carries the genetic information copied from DNA in the form of a series of codons, each of which specifies a particular amino acid.tRNA (transfer RNA): Brings the appropriate amino acid to the ribosome to be added to the growing polypeptide chain according to the sequence of the mRNA.rRNA (ribosomal RNA): A key structural and functional component of ribosomes, which are the sites of protein synthesis.Considering the roles of these RNA types in translation, the correct answer is D. none of the above because all the listed types of RNA (mRNA, tRNA, rRNA) are involved in translation.
what are 5 major results of global climate change
Answer:
Change Will Continue Through This Century and Beyond
Global climate is projected to continue to change over this century and beyond. The magnitude of climate change beyond the next few decades depends primarily on the amount of heat-trapping gases emitted globally, and how sensitive the Earth’s climate is to those emissions.
Temperatures Will Continue to Rise
Because human-induced warming is superimposed on a naturally varying climate, the temperature rise has not been, and will not be, uniform or smooth across the country or over time.
Frost-free Season (and Growing Season) will Lengthen
The length of the frost-free season (and the corresponding growing season) has been increasing nationally since the 1980s, with the largest increases occurring in the western United States, affecting ecosystems and agriculture. Across the United States, the growing season is projected to continue to lengthen.
In a future in which heat-trapping gas emissions continue to grow, increases of a month or more in the lengths of the frost-free and growing seasons are projected across most of the U.S. by the end of the century, with slightly smaller increases in the northern Great Plains. The largest increases in the frost-free season (more than eight weeks) are projected for the western U.S., particularly in high elevation and coastal areas. The increases will be considerably smaller if heat-trapping gas emissions are reduced.
Changes in Precipitation Patterns
Average U.S. precipitation has increased since 1900, but some areas have had increases greater than the national average, and some areas have had decreases. More winter and spring precipitation is projected for the northern United States, and less for the Southwest, over this century.
Projections of future climate over the U.S. suggest that the recent trend towards increased heavy precipitation events will continue. This trend is projected to occur even in regions where total precipitation is expected to decrease, such as the Southwest.
More Droughts and Heat Waves
Droughts in the Southwest and heat waves (periods of abnormally hot weather lasting days to weeks) everywhere are projected to become more intense, and cold waves less intense everywhere.
Summer temperatures are projected to continue rising, and a reduction of soil moisture, which exacerbates heat waves, is projected for much of the western and central U.S. in summer. By the end of this century, what have been once-in-20-year extreme heat days (one-day events) are projected to occur every two or three years over most of the nation.
Hurricanes Will Become Stronger and More Intense
The intensity, frequency and duration of North Atlantic hurricanes, as well as the frequency of the strongest (Category 4 and 5) hurricanes, have all increased since the early 1980s. The relative contributions of human and natural causes to these increases are still uncertain. Hurricane-associated storm intensity and rainfall rates are projected to increase as the climate continues to warm.
Answer:
1. North and south poles are Melting (Slowly)
2. There is less rainfall in the Sahara Dessert
3. Sea levels rising
4. More floods due to risen sea levels
5. Hotter climates
Groundwater is desirable for which of the following reasons?
A. It is often very pure.
B. It is cooled naturally underground.
C. It is easier to extract than surface water.
D. It is more easily replenished than surface water.
A it is often very pure so groundwater is desirable
Answer: Option A.
It is often pure.
Explanation:
Ground water is the water found underground the or below the Earth surface where it occupies the faces of the soil, fractures of rock formations. It is stored in them and move steadily in this formations.
It is gotten by drilling or digging Wells. Ground water is clean or pure and ready to use because the soil filters the water.
Why do some organisms reproduce asexually
Answer:
Some organism reproduce by asexual reproduction because it does not requires much energy and is very convenient.
This type of reproduction does not requires two parent. They do not involve the fusion of male and female gamete.
The offspring produced by this process are same and it does not requires much time to produce offspring.
There is no variation in the offspring and the stability of organism produced by asexual reproduction is less as compared to that of sexual.
Final answer:
Organisms reproduce asexually to rapidly produce offspring without needing a mate, resulting in a quickly growing population of genetically identical individuals, which can be beneficial in stable environments but a disadvantage in changing ones.
Explanation:
Some organisms reproduce asexually because this method of reproduction can be very quick and does not require the meeting of male and female organisms. Asexual reproduction allows for the rapid growth of a population since every individual is capable of reproduction, leading to advantages in certain environmental conditions. Asexual reproduction often results in offspring that are exact genetic clones of the parent, which can be beneficial if the parent's traits are well suited to the environment.
However, it also means that all offspring carry the same genetic vulnerabilities, which can be a disadvantage in changing or unpredictable environments. Sexual reproduction introduces genetic variation which can be advantageous for populations in variable environments, as it enhances adaptability and increases the chance of survival against diseases and environmental changes.
Please help I dont know none of these.
Answer:
9. True
Explanation:
Cells make up all living things.
why is sexual reproduction important to the evolutionary proccess
Because of the genetic mutation, or the possibility of the offspring have a genetic disorder.
Answer:
These mutations are passed onto the next generation because the offspring are exact genetic clones of their parent. The genetic load of organisms and their populations will increase due to the addition of multiple deleterious mutations and decrease the overall reproductive success and fitness.
why should the number of each kind of atom be equal on both side of a chemical reaction
Answer:
Every chemical equation adheres to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. Therefore, there must be the same number of atoms of each element on each side of a chemical equation.
The number of each kind of atom must be equal on both sides of a chemical reaction to obey the law of conservation of mass, ensuring the mass of reactants equals the mass of products. This is represented in a balanced chemical equation.
In a closed system, no atoms are lost or gained during a chemical reaction, meaning the mass of the reactants must equal the mass of the products. This law is reflected in a balanced chemical equation, which is a statement of a chemical reaction with the number of each type of atom equalized for both the products and reactants. To achieve this balance, coefficients may be added in front of compounds to ensure the same number of atoms for each element on both sides of the equation. When correctly balanced, an equation shows that while the distribution of atoms may change, forming new compounds with new bonds, the absolute count of each type of atom remains constant before and after the reaction.

The image shows that landmasses now separated by oceans fit together like puzzle pieces and have fossils of the same organisms. These clues are evidence of
Answer:
continental drift theory
Explanation:
If we take the shapes of the continents and we compare them, and put them next to each other, we can see that they are an almost perfect match, and that they resemble a puzzle. Also, it is very interesting that there are lot of fossils that are exactly the same, thus the same species, found in multiple different continents. These two clues give us part of the evidence that the continental drift is a real process that has been going on since very early in the geological timeline.

Match each major blood vessel with the correct description
The aorta carries oxygen rich blood away from the heart.
The pulmonary artery transports deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs.
The inferior vena cava carries deoxygenated blood from the lower body to the heart.
The coronary artery branches from the aorta and provide oxygen to the heart muscles.
Answer & explanation:
Aorta - carries oxygen rich blood away from the heart.
The aorta contributes to the stability of blood flow by pumping oxygenated blood through the left ventricle.
Pulmonary artery - transports deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs.
The pulmonary artery originates from the right ventricle, it forks into the right and left pulmonary arteries.
Lower vena cava - carries deoxygenated blood from lower body to the heart.
This is the largest vein in the body, formed by the two iliac veins.
Coronary artery - branches from aorta and provide oxygen to heart muscles.
It also divides into left and right coronary arteries, where each carries oxygenated blood to different regions of the heart.
Nicholas Steno recognized "tongue stones" as the teeth from which of the following? cavemen dinosaurs wooly mammoths ancient sharks
Answer:
ancient sharks
Explanation:
Nicholas Steno can be considered as the father of paleontology. In the year of 1666, Steno received a shark specimen caught by two fishermen. Once he started dissecting it, he noticed that the teeth have very interesting shape. They reminded him of the ''tongue stones'' known since the antiquity. In fact, the ''tongue stones'' were actually teeth of ancient sharks, just that the people were not aware of that. Steno was quick to see the similarities, thus he made a conclusion that they have to be connected.
Different (blank) of an element have different numbers of neutrons
Answer:
lons

Answer: The correct answer is isotopes.
Explanation:
Isotopes are defined as the chemical species of the same element which has different atomic mass but have same atomic number.
It can also be said that they have different number of neutrons but have same number of protons.
For Example: [tex]_6^{12}\textrm{C}\text{ and }_6^{14}\textrm{C}[/tex] are the isotopes of carbon. They have 6 and 8 number of neutrons respectively.
Hence, different isotopes of an element will have different number of neutrons.
in which position are the earth, moon, and sun during a new moon?
A. Moon is between the sun and earth
B. Earth is between the sun and moon
C. Sun is between Earth and the moon
D. Moon is to the side of earth and the sun
Please help!
Answer:
A. Moon is between the Sun and Earth
Explanation:
The new moon stage is the faze in which we can not see the Moon from Earth. In this stage, the Moon is lacking from the sky, or rather we can not see it because it is totally dark from the side that is facing the Earth. The reason for this is that the Moon is located between the Sun and the Earth. The Sun is making half of the Moon bright as it always does, but in this stage it is the half of the Moon that is facing the Sun, while the other half that is facing the Earth is totally dark as it doesn't receive any sunlight at that time.

What are some non-specific responses of the immune system and how do they protect us from infection?
Answer: Some non specific responses in the body caused by the immune system are the release of body cells. (T-cells, T-killer cells, B-cells, B-Helper cells.)
Explanation:
When your body notices an intruding viruses or bacteria, it initiates a chemical response. (Aka your germacide.) You body has two systems that’s work together to kill these intruders, your non specific defense, and you specifics defense. Each has it’s own jobs. The non specifics job is to release you cells to the targeted area. When a cell is detected, and it gets into your blood your B cells will latch onto it and call your other cells to come kill it. Another way you’re non specific defense gets to work is your skin. You body always has germs on its skin, so it produces a anti germ liquid. Sometimes it doesn’t affect them, and sometimes it does. For the germs it attacks, it actually breaks down the cells cell. It’s like a acid for the germ.
The hand is proximal or distal to the upper arm
Answer:
The further away an attachment or body part is from the center (shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, fingers) the more distal it is, and the closer the body part is to the center the more proximal it is.
Explanation:
Final answer:
The hand is distal to the upper arm; 'distal' means farther from the point of attachment to the trunk, whereas 'proximal' means closer.
Explanation:
The hand is distal to the upper arm. The term 'distal' refers to a position in a limb that is farther from the point of attachment to the trunk of the body or the origin. In contrast, 'proximal' describes a position that is nearer to this point of attachment. For instance, the brachium (upper arm) is proximal to the antebrachium (forearm). In the context of the human body's anatomical position, the upper arm, which contains the humerus bone, is between the shoulder and the elbow joints, while the hand is beyond the wrist. Therefore, when comparing the position of the hand relative to the upper arm, the hand is situated distally.
gardener purchased 20 full-grown pea plants. All 20 were the same genotype and had purple flowers. The gardener crossed two of these plants to get seeds for the next season. The seeds from the cross produced some plants with purple flowers and some with white flowers. The gardener learned that in pea plants the allele for purple flowers (P) is dominant of the allele for white flowers (p). What was the most likely genotype of the original 20 full-grown plants?
Answer:
maybe 75% of them were purple and 25% were white
Answer:
"Pp" is the most likely genotype of the original 20 full-grown plants
Explanation:
Given
All the 20 full-grown pea plants have purple flowers.
But when two plants out of these 20 are mated , then the seeds from the cross produced some plants with purple flowers and some with white flowers
This leads to a conclusion that though the 20 plants have purple color , they must be carrier of white color allele.
Thus, genotype of all the 20 pea plant species would be "Pp"
if two "Pp" genotype plants are crossed following offsprings are produced -
P p
P PP Pp
p Pp pp
Since "p" is a recessive allele , therefore when two recessive alleles are together they express their trait.
So, here in this case one out of four offspring is white in color.

What would happen if a plant could carry out photosynthesis, but not respiration?
Question 3 options:
It would have no food.
It could make food but not use it.
It would have too much water in its cells.
It would be unable to capture the energy in sunlight.
Answer:
answer is 1
it would have no food.
Explanation:
Photosynthesis also uses carbon dioxide faster than respiration produces it. Oxygen surplus is released into the air and unused glucose stored in the plant for later use. This is why plants are so important to human and other animals' survival. Without photosynthesis, we wouldn't have oxygen or food to stay alive.
Plant cells respire, just as animal cells do. If they stop respiring, they will die. Remember that respiration is not the same as breathing, so take care - plants do not breathe.
The study of plants is called botany. There are two types of plants and these are flowering plants and nonflowering plants.
The correct answer is A it would have no food.
What is respiration?The oxidation of the biomolecules to make the energy is called respiration.
Photosynthesis also uses carbon dioxide faster than respiration produces it. Oxygen surplus is released into the air and unused glucose is stored in the plant for later use.
This is why plants are so important to human and other animals' survival. Without photosynthesis, we wouldn't have oxygen or food to stay alive. Plant cells respire, just as animal cells do.

Which process is BEST represented by the following chemical equation?
sugars + oxygen ----> carbon dioxide + water
Answer:
cellular respiration
Explanation:
This is when the body consumes and sugar and oxygen obtained from food and breathing to produce waste like water carbon dioxide when breathing out and sweat
Final answer:
The equation 'sugars + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water' represents cellular respiration, where glucose combines with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and energy. The reverse process, photosynthesis, is represented by 'carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen', where plants convert CO₂ and H₂O into glucose and O₂ using sunlight.
Explanation:
The process best represented by the chemical equation 'sugars + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water' is cellular respiration. In this biological process, sugar such as glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) reacts with oxygen (O₂) to produce carbon dioxide (CO₂), water (H₂O), and energy in the form of ATP. The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O. Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria of cells and is essential for providing energy to maintain various cellular processes.
On the other hand, the chemical equation 'carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen', which represents the process of photosynthesis, is the reverse of cellular respiration. During photosynthesis, green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen using energy from sunlight. The balanced equation for photosynthesis is written as 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + light energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells and contributes to the global oxygen supply while removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
