At which location along a river or stream would the greatest rate of erosion most likely occur?

A. at its point nearest to the ocean

B. at its steepest incline

C. at its widest point

D. at its origin

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. at its steepest incline

Explanation:

The steepness of a body such as river or stream refers to the downward slope or gradient of the body of water.

Generally, the steepness of a body affects the rate at which other materials would flow or move around. Thus, the steeper a river or stream, the greater would be its rate of erosion.

Hence, the location along a river or stream at which the greatest rate of erosion would most likely occur is at its steepest incline.

Answer 2

The study of rivers is called limnology.

The correct answer to the question is B that is at its steepest incline

What is erosion?

The removal of the upper layer of soil is called soil erosion.

According to the question, The steepness of a body such as a river or a stream refers to the downward slope or gradient of the body of water. Generally, the steepness of a body affects the rate at which other materials would flow or move around.

Thus, the steeper a river or stream, the greater would be its rate of erosion.

Hence, the location along a river or stream at which the greatest rate of erosion would most likely occur is at its steepest incline.

main stages of the cell cycle

Answers

Answer: The cell cycle is a four-stage process in which the cell increases in size (gap 1, or G1, stage), copies its DNA (synthesis, or S, stage), prepares to divide (gap 2, or G2, stage), and divides (mitosis, or M, stage). The stages G1, S, and G2 make up interphase, which accounts for the span between cell divisions.

Question 4 options:

because lions and tigers both need to hunt


because lions and tigers have many of the same genes


because lions and tigers have the same type of cells


because lions and tigers share the same organelles

Answers

Answer:

B. Because lions and tigers have many of the same genes.

Explanation:

You can rule out A, since all big cats and other predatory animals must hunt to survive.

C can be ruled out, as all animals have roughly the same cells.

D can be ruled out as well, since all animal cells have the same organelles (essentially the same reason C can be ruled out.)

That leaves us with option B. B is the most likely answer, as lions and tigers share most of their DNA with one another.

Explanation:

I took notes in the class and my notes say -

To prevent blood from clotting, toxicologists add anticoagulants to the blood sample. Anticoagulants such as potassium oxalate (30 mg/mL) is preferred over heparin or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) because both heparin and EDTA interfere with the detection of certain chemicals, such as calcium, in the blood. If the blood is suspected of carbon monoxide poisoning, a layer of liquid paraffin is added over the blood sample. This layer prevents exposure to atmospheric oxygen.

Explanation:

The Actin assembly-inducing (ActA) protein is an integral membrane protein localized on the bacterial surface. It has been shown that ActA is necessary and sufficient to induce bacterial movement within host cells, regardless of other proteins. The function of the ActA protein for bacterial movement within host cells was discovered by identifying mutant Listeria bacteria for the gene encoding this protein which were unable to spread from cell to cell. Subsequently, by inducing mutations in other genes of the bacterial genome, researchers discovered that actA was the only protein involved in the actin assembly, which is required for cell-to-cell spread.

write a short note on gender issues and mites associated with female infanticide​

Answers

Answer:

gender issues include all aspects and concerns related to women's and men's lives and situation in society, to the way they interrelate, their differences in access to and use of resources, their activities, and how they react to changes, interventions and policies.

female infanticide is the deliberate killing of newborn female children. In countries with a history of female infanticide, the modern practice of sex-selective abortion is often discussed as a closely related issue. Female infanticide is a major cause of concern in several nations such as China, India and Pakistan. It has been argued that the low status in which women are viewed in patriarchal societies creates a bias against females.

In 1978, anthropologist Laila Williamson, in a summary of data she had collated on how widespread infanticide was, found that infanticide had occurred on every continent and was carried out by groups ranging from hunter gatherers to highly developed societies, and that, rather than this practice being an exception, it has been commonplace. The practice has been well documented among the indigenous peoples of Australia, Northern Alaska and South Asia, and Barbara Miller argues the practice to be "almost universal," even in the West. Miller contends that female infanticide is commonplace in regions where women are not employed in agriculture and regions in which dowries are the norm. In 1871 in The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex, Charles Darwin wrote that the practice was commonplace among the aboriginal tribes of Australia.

In 1990, Amartya Sen writing in the New York Review of Books estimated that there were 100 million fewer women in Asia than would be expected, and that this amount of "missing" women "tell[s] us, quietly, a terrible story of inequality and neglect leading to the excess mortality of women." Initially Sen's suggestion of gender bias was contested and it was suggested that hepatitis B was the cause of the alteration in the natural sex ratio. However it is now widely accepted that the numerical worldwide deficit in women is due to gender specific abortions, infanticide and neglect.

In seventh-century Arabia, before Islamic culture became established, female infanticide was widely practiced. This is attributed by scholars to the fact that women were deemed "property" within those societies. Others have speculated that to prevent their daughters from a life of misery, the mothers would kill the child. With the arrival of Islamic rule the practice was made illegal.

A stream that flows into two distinct rivers is part of two:

Option b. Tributary

This can be explained as:

A reservoir is a lake that reserves the water either created naturally or artificially.

A stream that merges into the river is called tributary or affluent.

A watershed is a drainage bay where the water from precipitation gets accumulated and drains to common river or water bodies.

Therefore, a tributary is a stream that flows into two different rivers.

A molding machine in a factory was not working very well. About a third of the time, the plastic squirt guns that it was making come out with a flaw in the handle. The repair mechanic adjusted the stamping pressure. Then she ran one gun through. It came out just fine, so she figured she had solved the problem. What was/were the error(s) in the conclusion of the repair mechanic?

a. Not enough subjects
b. Subjects were not similar
c. Conditions were not kept the same
d. The experiment was not reproduced

Answers

Answer:

a. Not enough subjects

Explanation:

In the context, it is given that in a factory, a molding machine is not working properly. The molding machine produces a gun made of plastic. But the machine was produces a defective piece about a third of he time it produces the gun.

The mechanic adjusted and repaired the stamping pressure and ran only one gun through which came out to be fine. But there was an error in the conclusion of the repair mechanic as she did run the machine only one time. She did not have enough subjects and should have run many times to see if the error still exists, as the machine showed error only about a third of the time during the process.

Thus the error in the experiment includes the lack of the enough of the subjects. We cannot come to the conclusion only with one time success.

It was formed when glaciers melted during the last ice age and is known as Vermont's Grand Canyon. Taking a hot air balloon ride through the gorge is a unique group experience with unparalleled viewsand that is only part of the tour!Taking a ride in a hot air balloon is already a unique experience. Visitors watch as the pilot tests the air currents with a helium balloon and makes a flight plan. The balloon is laid out on the grass and filled with cool air. Then, the pilot turns on the burners, which heat the balloon's air and cause the balloon to rise. Each balloon carries up to four passengers in addition to the pilot. As a result, tourists can enjoy the experience as a private group. Once the hot air balloon is in the air, the skilled pilot puts it into the paths of different air currents. Since air currents change on a daily basis, every ride is unique.The aerial views from the hot air balloon are unparalleled. The hot air balloon floats above the dam and waterfall. Passengers can see people lining the steel bridge over the gorge. Then the hot air balloon floats just above the river. This relaxing trip allows visitors to enjoy the rushing water and watch for wildlife in the forest. The pilot also takes the hot air balloon high into the sky. Tourists can see the nearby mountains. Since they are traveling in a hot air balloon, visitors are treated to a 360-degree view of their surroundings.The Quechee Gorge is only part of the hot air balloon tour. Passengers also enjoy seeing covered bridges and farms. They can touch the leaves on the trees. The hot air balloon may even make a quick dip into the water! Visitors admire the beautiful villages of Vermont and take pictures of the picturesque countryside.At the end of the tour, passengers will without a doubt say that a hot air balloon ride is the best way to see the Quechee Gorge.How does the point of view impact what the reader learns about taking a hot air balloon to see the gorge in this article?A.
