In your story, you will write an account of your journey through the digestive tract of a farm animal, from the mouth through the colon and out of the body. Your story should start with something like, "I was just standing there minding my own business when a hungry cow approached..."

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:One day a cow named Spots woke up. She noticed she was in a desert. She looked around. She saw there was no grass for her to eat, so she went back to sleep. The next day she was hungry, very hungry. All she saw was a cactus and dirt on the ground. The cactus had little spikes. There was only lizards and flies around. She had no food, no water and no friends. Spots was very sad. She got up and started to walk. She walked all day and the next day too. Finally she came to a farm. She wondered where the animals were. All she saw was a husband and wife. They only had cereal with no milk. It was dry. They wished they had milk. Spots asked if she could help by giving them some milk. They said yes and never went hungry again, neither did Spots the cow.

What affect does the Sahel's climate and physical characteristics have on population distribution?

Answers

Answer:

The Sahel has been labeled as one of those regions with the danger of overpopulation. It has been described with adjectives such as semi-arid, hot, dry, windy or sunny.

Sources have it that the G5 Sahel countries which include Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Mauritania, Chad will increase from about 84 million inhabitants in 2019 to 197 million in 2050. This projection includes people under 15 years of age which comprise about 50% of the entire population.

The climate itself doesn't seem to deter population growth. What seems to be occurring is sedentarization. This is due to rapid desertification and drought which have persisted for some time.

Explanation:

Sedentarization refers to the choice of a group of people who usually are very nomadic or migratory to settle permanently in a place.

This is usually due to a more favorable weather and topography which supports agriculture.

A. a penny made with copper?
B. computer chips made from silicon?
C. a pie made with blueberries?
D. earrings made from silver?

Answers

Answer:

C. A pie made with blueberries

Explanation:

Blueberries can be grown naturally, so they are a renewable resource.

Blueberries are renewable resources. Hence, option C is correct.

What are renewable resources?

Renewable resources are those natural resources that continue to exist even after their consumption. They are also known as flow resources.

Renewable resources include plants, biomass, ocean currents, energy, wind, solar energy, tides, waves, etc. All these things will continue to exist even after their consumption. They can be used repeatedly and do not run out.

Advantages of renewable resources:

They are cheap.They are easily available.They are eco-friendly.They are clean and efficient.

Copper, silicon, and silvers are minerals and non-renewable resources, and blueberries are plant products and hence, they are renewable resources. Therefore, option C is correct.

An individual has the genotype Aa Bb CC Dd ee FF. How many different types of gametes could it produce in terms of unique allelic combinations of these genes?

Answers

Answer:

64

Explanation:

The individual in this question with genotype: Aa Bb CC Dd ee FF has six (6) different traits encoded by six (6) genes. The diploid number of the organism in this question is 12, however, the number of possible allelic combinations in each gamete can be calculated by using 2^n where n = haploid number of chromosome or number of allele that can be in one gamete.

Using this simple formula, 6 possible alleles can be in the gamete of this organism with the above genotype, hence, the individual can produce 2^6 = 64 different types of gametes in terms of unique allelic combinations of these 6 genes.

Which blood type can give to all the other blood types?

Answers

Answer:

Type O

Explanation:

Type O can donate red blood cells to anybody. It's the universal donor. Group AB can donate to other AB's but can receive from all others.

People with type O- blood are called universal donors because their donated red blood cells have no A, B or Rh antigens and can therefore be safely given to people of any blood group.

Answers

Answer:

Global climate change has already had observable effects on the environment. Glaciers have shrunk, ice on rivers and lakes is breaking up earlier, plant and animal ranges have shifted and trees are flowering sooner.  Effects that scientists had predicted in the past would result from global climate change are now occurring: loss of sea ice, accelerated sea level rise and longer, more intense heat waves. Scientists have high confidence that global temperatures will continue to rise for decades to come, largely due to greenhouse gases produced by human activities. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which includes more than 1,300 scientists from the United States and other countries, forecasts a temperature rise of 2.5 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit over the next century.

using what have you learnt about the effect of concentration gradient and surface area to volume ratio, explain the adaptations of a leaf for photosynthesis​

Answers

Answer:

thanks

Explanation:

Leaves are adapted for photosynthesis and gaseous exchange.

They are adapted for photosynthesis by having a large surface area, and contain openings, called stomata to allow carbon dioxide into the leaf and oxygen out. Although these design features are good for photosynthesis, they can result in the leaf losing a lot of water. The cells inside the leaf have water on their surface. Some of this water evaporates, and the water vapour can then escape from inside the leaf.

When water evaporates from the leaves, resulting in more water being drawn up from the roots, it is called transpiration.

To reduce water loss the leaf is coated in a waxy cuticle to stop the water vapour escaping through the epidermis. Leaves usually have fewer stomata on their top surface to reduce this water loss.

Leaves enable photosynthesis to occur. Photosynthesis is the process by which leaves absorb light and carbon dioxide to produce glucose (food) for plants to grow. Leaves are adapted to perform their function, eg they have a large surface area to absorb sunlight.

Plants have two different types of 'transport' tissue, xylem and phloem. These specialised tissues move substances in and around the plant.

Examine the cell diagrams shown. Which of the following choices identifies the eukaryotic cell for the correct reason?

Select one:
a. Because it contains organelles
b. Because it is a single cell
c. Because it contains genetic material
d. Because it is much smaller

Answers

Answer:

Option a

Explanation:

A eukaroytic cell contains more organelles than prokaryotic cells, and it is much bigger and complex.

hope this helps and is right :)

The choice that identifies the eukaryotic cell for the correct reason would the presence of organelles. The correct option would, therefore, be A.

Eukaryotic cells differ from prokaryotic cells such that:

Eukaryotic cells have nucleus, prokaryotic cells do not. The genetic materials of prokaryotic cells lies freely within the cytoplasm.Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles while prokaryotic cells do not. In size, eukaryotic cells (10 - 100 microns) is much bigger than prokaryotic cells (0.1 - 5 microns).

2. d . A bee goes through a pupa stage, while the grasshopper goes through a nymph stage.

3. b . I and II

Explanation:

The egg fertilization is very important for the emergence of almost all organisms. If the egg is fertilized then it will change into an organism otherwise no organism is produced from that unfertilized egg.  The bees has four distinct life stages i.e. the egg, larva, pupa and adult whereas grasshopper has three stages i.e. egg, nymph, and adult. A moth and an eagle both start their life cycle as a fertilized egg and moth and an eagle both hatch from an egg which is laid by the mother outside of their body..
