Which of the following is typical of aerobic respiration?
decreases a plant’s weight
contains two stages, glycolysis and fermentation
produces methane as a byproduct
produces little energy
Answer:
decreases a plant’s weight
Explanation:
Aerobic respiration is a process of respiration in which oxygen is required and the byproducts of aerobic respiration are carbon dioxide, water and energy.
Plants undergo aerobic respiration and it is a catabolic process in which complex compounds in plants turns into simpler compounds. This process reduces the dry weight of the plants.
Glycolysis is the first step in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration so it is not a typical aerobic respiration.
Hence, the correct answer is "decreases a plant’s weight".

What additional restriction enzyme would be used to cut out another gene flanked by a different restriction site?
Answer:
a clone
Explanation:
Restriction enzymes are DNA-cutting enzymes. Each enzyme recognizes one or a few target sequences and cuts DNA at or near those sequences. Many restriction enzymes make staggered cuts, producing ends with single-stranded DNA overhangs. However, some produce blunt ends.
Story #1
Once upon a time, there lived a population of mountain people whose members all had wings but different
types-either bat wings or bird wings. 40% of the population had bat wings and 60% of the population had bird
wings. One day, a storm hit that lasted for several weeks. Those with bat wings were able to fly around and
find food because their wings were water resistant, while those with bird wings were not able to get food
because their feathers were not water resistant and got soaked through. Many of the bird-winged people starved
and did not survive, so their alleles decreased in the gene pool, lowering the frequency of the bird wings in
future generations. Over many generations, the environment had more and more long periods of rain and the
genetic makeup of the population shifted to 10% with bird wings and 90% with bat wings.
What is the trait being described?
What are the variations that exist in this population?
3. How did the event lead to the change in allele frequency?
Alleles?
4. What type of evolutionary mechanism did this story show?
5. Was there an adaptation in this story? If so, identify it.
6. Did the change make the population more or less similar to other populations?
7. Would this increase or decrease reproductive isolation?
Increase or decrease speciation?
8. Did the new population change for the better, worse, or have no effect? Why?
Answer:
The trait being described is the ability to fly in rainy season.
Explanation:
The trait being described is the ability to fly in rainy season. The people with bat wings and people with bird wings are present in the population. The event lead to the change in allele frequency because the population of people with bird wings die due to starvation. Yes, the bat wings were adapted to that environment so they are able to survive. The change make the population less similar to other populations because population of people with bat wings increases as compared to other population. Yes, the new population change for the better of the ecosystem because the population is able to controls the population of other species in the ecosystem.

Explain the connection between nitrogen-fixing bacteria and the use of
fertilizer.
Answer:
They contain symbiotic rhizobia bacteria within nodules in their root systems, producing nitrogen compounds that help the plant to grow and compete with other plants. When the plant dies, the fixed nitrogen is released, making it available to other plants; this helps to fertilize the soil
At which latitudes do we find Earth's major deserts?
Answer: Around 30-50 degrees of latitude. This is roughly right above and below the equator.
True or False: Competition occurs between plants that use the
same resources.

Answer:
Box 1 and box 3
Explanation:
[tex]\huge\boxed{\textbf{Box 1 and Box 3}}[/tex]
_____________________________________[tex]\Large\textbf{Phenotype:}[/tex]
It is the physical appearance of the trait, whether the plant has Long stem or short stem.
[tex]\Large\textbf{Genotype:}[/tex]
A genotype refers to the genetic characteristics of an organism's trait, if it is heterozygous or h o m o-zygous, recessive or dominant. This question is basically based on the Genotype, asking for the heterozygous plants which is a genotypic characteristic.
_____________________________________Alleles:Allele Long stem A is dominant over short stem a
Genotype of Parent Pea PlantsPea Plant 1 has genotype Aa
Pea Plant 2 has genotype aa
_____________________________________[tex]\Huge\text{Question:}[/tex]The question asks for how many heterozygous plants are present in the punnet square of pea plant 1 and pea plant 2.
Heterozygous PlantsHeterozygous Plants means those plants which have two different alleles that means One dominant allele (i.e. A here) and One recessive allele (i.e. a here). These Organisms inherit a different version from each parent. In a heterozygous genotype, the dominant allele overrules the recessive one.
If we look at the punnet square given in the attachment, the Box 1 and 3 have genotype Aa which is a HETEROZYGOUS DOMINANT PLANT while box 2 and 4 have a genotype aa which is a HOMO-ZYGOUS RECESSIVE PLANT thus the answer is Box 1 and 3

What are some of the WORST things about coal fuel?
help me please help me
Answer:
Explanation:
The burning of fossil fuels releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, increasing levels of CO2 and other gasses, trapping heat, and contributing to global climate change. Coal combustion releases the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrous oxide (N2O) during combustion. The major disadvantage of coal is its negative impact on the environment. Coal-burning energy plants are a major source of air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. In addition to carbon monoxide and heavy metals like mercury, the use of coal releases sulfur dioxide, a harmful substance linked to acid rain.
Answer:
Air pollution
Can impact health of citizens like asthma, breathing difficulties, etc.
Can lead to death if not treated or fixed.
Releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

Which statement accurately describes how genetic information is transferred during meiosis?
Meiosis creates four daughter cells that have half the number of chromosomes that are present in the parent cells.
Meiosis creates two daughter cells that have half the number of chromosomes that are present in the parent cells.
Meiosis creates four daughter cells that have identical genetic information to the parent cells.
Meiosis creates two daughter cells that have identical genetic information to the parent cells.
Meiosis is the reductional division which creates four daughter cells that have identical genetic information to the parent cells. Thus, the correct option is C.
What is Meiosis?Meiosis is a special type of cell division which is also called as reductional division. This division takes place in the germ cells in sexually reproducing organisms which results into production of gametes, such as sperm or egg cells. Meiosis involves two rounds of division which ultimately result in the formation of four cells with only one copy of each chromosome or half genetic content.
Meiosis is divided into two divisions: Meiosis I and Meiosis II. In which, Meiosis II is similar to Mitosis and Meiosis I involves the reduction of genetic material to half.
Therefore, the correct option is C.

Which of the following environmental factors would positively influence the survival and reproduction of only light peppered moths?
A.
A forest fire that burns down the trees.
B.
Laws that improve air quality and restrict pollution.
C.
Increasing the number of factories that burn coal into the air.
D.
A disease that infects the light peppered moths and not the dark.
Answer:
The correct answer is - option B. laws that improve air quality and restrict pollution.
Explanation:
The dark peppered moths were the adaption of the light peppered moths due to the change in the environmental condition of increased pollution that made tree bark dark in color and allows birds to easily prey on the light peppered moths.
This leads to natural selection and light moths become dark but the after Clean Air Act was that there was less pollution then there is less soot in the air, so trees were less black which result in the Light-colored moths would increase, and dark-colored moths would decrease.
