A. They lack life-forms.
B. They are highly polluted.
C. They are swamps.
D. They recycle nutrients into the soil.

Answers

Answer 1

The answer is D. they recycle nutrients into the soil

Answer 2

The correct answer is option D. They recycle nutrients into the soil.

The wetlands are the water the land water bodies, which are supplied with the water seasonally or throughout the year. All the type of the wetlands can support growth of the life forms, which can be seasonal or annual. Some o the wetlands are polluted by human activities, but not all of them. Swamps are a type of wetlands.

All the wetlands are involved in the recycling of the nutrients back into the soil. A wetland system have a rich diversity of flora and fauna, which can help in filtration of various sediments from water, recycling or removing nutrients and pollutants. In the wetlands, the water also come from the runoffs, the inorganic substances present in the water can be filtered and added to the sediments.

_____ is the main energy source for all life on earth. Chlorophyll Water Sunlight Nitrogen

Answers

Every living thing requires water, but this is a trick answer. Water is not an energy source. The correct answer is Sunlight.

Answer: Sunlight

Sunlight is the main source of energy for all life forms on earth. It is trapped by the green plants and other autotrophic organisms in order to conduct the process of photosynthesis. In photosynthesis, the light energy from sun is converted into chemical energy in the form of food. The plants are eaten by other organisms such as animals, birds and humans as a source of food and energy.

b)It will allow most members of the population to live longer because they will inherit many beneficial adaptations.
c)It will increase genetic diversity as new alleles are introduced to the gene pool from neighboring populations.
d)It will reduce genetic diversity by decreasing the frequency of some alleles a ...?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer would be d) It will reduce genetic diversity by decreasing the frequency of some alleles.

Genetic drift is one of the methods of evolution in which frequency of certain genotype or alleles is reduced in a population.

It mainly occurs when population size reduces to a very small size due to a random event such as natural disaster, over-hunting et cetera.

The decrease in population size results in the loss of certain alleles or genotype from the population.

D) nucleus

Answers

Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells

Plant cells perform photosynthesis, which occurs in the chloroplast. Therefore, the correct option is option A.

The equilibrium of our planet's ecosystems is maintained in large part by photosynthesis. Plants act as the planet's "lungs" by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and releasing oxygen through this amazing process. The generation of glucose, a form of sugar that serves as the primary energy source for plants, is also a result of photosynthesis. Chloroplasts, teeny organelles found inside plant cells and containing chlorophyll, are where the process of photosynthesis takes place. The solar energy from the sun is captured by this green pigment.

Therefore, the correct option is option A.

What is the difference between double and single stranded RNA and

Answers

In DNA it is called "sense" and "antisense" - this is just which way the DNA twists - like which way the thumb sticks out of your hand is based on which hand it is... the DNA in a nucleus that is "read" (transcribed) into mRNA is "antisense" and for this reason the mRNA that results (when the DNA is translated) is called "sense" -because it is like a backwards imprint... in viri (the "correct" Latin/scientific for "viruses") positive sense means that the viral RNA looks to the cell just like mRNA coming from the nucleus... so it can be *translated* (by the ribosome) into amino acid sequences used to make a protein... when a virus infects a cell, it will use one type of RNA or the other (if it is an RNA virus anyway) to get the cellular machinery (the ribosome) to make proteins that help the virus, and often harm the cell... if the virus releases negative sense RNA it has to be copied (and thus reversed) into positive sense RNA by a different cellular "machine" called RNA polymerase before the ribosome can read and thus translate it into aa sequence.

B. The offspring will inherit the change in genotype but not the phenotype change.
C. The offspring will inherit neither the genotype or phenotype change.
D. The offspring will inherit the new phenotype.

Answers

C. The offspring will inherit neither the genotype or phenotype change.

The correct answer is (c) The offspring will inherit neither the genotype nor the phenotype change.

Mutation is a slight change in the genetic material of cell.The mutation that is carried from one generation to other is to be in the germ cell. The mutation that occurs in the body cell is not inherited to another generation. The mutation that occurs in a body cell might change the phenotype of the person  but is not transferred to another generation. The conclusion is that the offspring will not have any change in the phenotype and genotype of the body.

Which of the following is most likely to be observed by a physiologist?

Bone, called osseous tissue, is the most rigid connective tissue.

Epithelial tissue is made up of one or more layers of tightly packed cells.

The nervous system is composed predominantly of neural tissue.

The oily secretions from eye ducts prevent the lids from sticking together.

Answers

The correct observation that a physiologist is most likely to make is that The oily secretions from eye ducts prevent the lids from sticking together.

To understand why this statement is the most likely observation for a physiologist, let's consider the other options:

1. Bone, called osseous tissue, is the most rigid connective tissue. This is a true statement about the nature of bone tissue, but it is more of an anatomical or histological fact rather than a physiological observation. Physiologists study the functions of living organisms and their parts, so while they would understand this fact, it is not a dynamic physiological process they would observe.

2. Epithelial tissue is made up of one or more layers of tightly packed cells. This is another anatomical description. Epithelial tissues do have important physiological functions, such as protection, secretion, and absorption, but the statement itself describes structure rather than a specific physiological activity that a physiologist would observe.

3. The nervous system is composed predominantly of neural tissue. Similar to the first two options, this is a statement of composition and does not describe a physiological process or observation. Neural tissue does indeed carry out the critical functions of the nervous system, such as transmitting signals, but the statement itself is more about the makeup of the nervous system than an observable physiological event.

4. The oily secretions from eye ducts prevent the lids from sticking together. This statement describes a clear physiological function. The oily secretions, produced by the meibomian glands in the eyelids, are part of the tear film that keeps the eye moist and prevents the eyelids from sticking together when they close. This is a dynamic process that a physiologist could observe and study in the context of the normal functioning of the eye.

In conclusion, the fourth statement is the most likely observation a physiologist would make because it directly relates to the function of a physiological system, which is the primary focus of physiology.

Which nation was able to broker an armistice agreement between North and South Korea, ending the fighting?

Answers

The correct answer for this question would be India. The nation that was able to broker an armistice agreement between North and South Korea, ending the fighting is India. With the United Nations' acceptance of India's proposed Korean War armistice, the KPA, the PVA, and the UN Command ceased fire with the battle line approximately at the 38th parallel.

Answer:

The Armistice Agreement to end the war between the two Korean nations was brokered by India.

Explanation:

The Korean Armistice Agreement was signed on July 27, 1953 by U. S. Army Lieutenant General William Harrison, Jr. representing the United Nations Command, the Chinese people's Volunteer Army (PVA) and North Korean General Nam II representing the Korean People's Army. This agreement brought about the complete cessation of the hostilities of the war.  

India played a mediator in the war, bringing resolutions to ensure peace and ceasefire between the warring nations. The war had never formally ended and this armistice was the truce that will bring the nations into a standstill until further solutions could be found. This armistice suggested the establishing of a Neutral Nations Repatriation Commission (NNRC) chaired by Indian General K. S. Thimayya, which will decide the fate of over 20,000 prisoners of war (POWs) from both sides, among the many issues to be resolved. Though this armistice was not the final solution for the war to stop, it brought a piece of relief for the people and also for the governments until a permanent solution can be found.

What is the purpose of the biogeochemical cycles?

Answers

The purpose of the biogeochemical cycles is B. to recycle matter through the biosphere.
The geo part in the word makes D incorrect (because it deals with humans only, and not other inhabitants of the planet). It doesn't deal with food at all, so A is also incorrect. C is incorrect because the bio part means that there are beings involved, not only rocks. So B is correct because it encompasses all matter.

Succession occurs because _______.



a.

b.

climax communities are not possible


c.

dominant organisms drive out pioneer species


d.

ecosystems never reach a sustainable point



Answers

Correct answer: A) Organisms gradually change the environment

Succession occurs when a disturbance takes place in the environment, it can occur either by the disturbance of minor or major order disturbance.

The major disturbance can be caused due to the natural cause like the volcanic eruption and minor disturbance caused due to a natural or human cause like the forest fire.

Based on the type of disturbance succession is classified into two types of primary and secondary succession.

Primary succession is said to occur when a community or a group of the species evolve from a barren land. The land is fresh and new and no life is found on it.

Example: Succession after the volcanic eruption is said to be primary succession.

Secondary succession is said to occur when the disturbance destroys the whole ecosystem, but still, there is an availability of soil, nutrient, and seed in the ecosystem.

Example: Forest fire

The answer is c.fish would die

Algae use the presence of increased nutrients and enhance their own growth. Tthey produce an oxygen in the photosynthesis, so it is not a problem while they are still alive. But when these organisms die, their decomposition begins. For the process of decomposition, the oxygen is needed and ultimately it will be depleted from a body of water. This could lead to the death of aquatic animals, such as fish, that depend on oxygen.
