Which of these statements best describes the characteristic of water that impacts its role in moderating Earth's climate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Water is a fluid with a high specific heat.

Explanation:

Specific heat is defined as the amount of heat energy measured in calories, that is required to change the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius. Water has a very high specific heat of 4.184 Joules. This means that water does not get heated up or cooled easily.

This is important for earth's climate and the organisms in it as they are not subject to sudden and frequent temperature fluctuations.

In the pea garden, Mendel found that yellow seed color was dominant to green (A>a) and round seed shape was dominant to shrunken (R>r). a) What phenotypic ratio would be expected in the F2 from a cross of a pure yellow, round x green, shrunken

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - 9:3:3:1

Explanation:

A cross between pure yellow round seeds(AARR) to another pure green shrunken seeds (aarr). In the F1 generation, all offsprings are heterozygous yellow round(YyrRr).

Now this heterozygous self-pollination, in the F2 generation, 9 plants are Yellow round, 3 plants are yellow shrunken, 3 plants are green round and 1 plant is green wrinkled are formed.

What is added as an anticoagulant to preserve blood specimens?

E.

Reset

Answers

B

Explanation

Sodium Fluoride

Answer:

C. potassium oxalate for plato / edmentum

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.

Question 4 options:

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.

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.

How do cold ocean currents affect climate ?

Answers

Ocean currents act as conveyer belts of warm and cold water, sending heat toward the polar regions and helping tropical areas cool off, thus influencing both weather and climate. Land areas also absorb some sunlight, and the atmosphere helps to retain heat that would otherwise quickly radiate into space after sunset.

Do you think wolves are a keystone species? Explain your answer

Answers

Most likely! Outnumbered greatly by their prey, predators can control the distribution and population of large numbers of prey species. Wolves are a critical keystone species in a healthy ecosystem. By regulating prey populations, wolves enable many other species of plants and animals to flourish.

Answer:

I think that wolves are a keystone species because they regulate prey. If they were gone, prey would overpopulate and decrease the population of smaller organisms such as plants. Without plants and other food sources for the prey, the prey would also decrease eventually.

Results from multiple experiments suggest that the ActA protein of Listeria, an integral membrane protein expressed on the cell surface, is the only bacterial protein that is required for the movement of the bacterium within its host cell. Which combination of the following observations shows that ActA is both, necessary and sufficient for bacterial movement?

I. ActA binds to the Arp2/3 complex
II. E. Coli in which ActA is expressed moves in host cell cytosol
III. Listeria lacking the ActA gene fail to move inside the host cell cytosol.
IV. ActA has 3 transmembrane domains
V. Arp2/3, when activated, nucleates a branched actin network

a. I and II
b. II and III
c. I and III
d. III and IV
e. I and V

Answers

Answer:

b. II and III

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.

Answers

Answer:

Tributaries

Explanation:

I wound think that they would be branching of so thats what i would say

A water body that flows on the surface of the earth is called a stream. The river is a larger water body compared to streams. Stream is shallow likened to river volume.

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.

Answers

Answer:

preserving fish species

Explanation:

"NOAA" stands for "National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration." It focuses on preserving the marine environment and shares information about the climate, weather and so on. This means that its focus is to "preserve the fish species," and in order to do this, it created policies like the "Annual Catch Limits." This will prevent overfishing and ensure the world of a sustainable fish supply. Besides this, they also try to improve fish habitats and ensure the water quality in order for fishes to thrive.
