three sentences about the role termites play in modifying the natural proses of water carbon or nitrogen cycle

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  

-help to store water in the soil (by increasing infiltration) rather than evaporating (enabling the plants survive long periods of drought)

-mix inorganic and organic compounds in the soil (and thus it can better resist the process of erosion)

-termite’s feces help to prevent erosion  

Explanation:

Decomposers break down complex organic matter into basic compounds containing nitrogen, phosphorus, and calcium, generating water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) during this process. Termites are critical in an ecosystem because they are decomposers, i.e., they are recyclers that break down organic material into nutrient-rich soil. For example, termites digest the cellulose from dead plants (due to the presence of specific bacteria in their digestive tract), thus allowing the carbon cycle.

Explanation:

its the answer on edge

The two characteristics which polar and dry climates have in common include very little precipitation and few specialized plants. Thus, the correct option is D.

What are Polar and Dry climates?

A polar climate is a place where the climate generally has a temperature below the freezing, icy, and it is covered in snow. These areas do not get enough amount of direct heat and sunlight from the sun. Polar climates are located at the North Pole of the Arctic, and at the South Pole on the continent of Antarctica.

The dry climate are found in deserts which are very dry and the temperature of these areas are very high.

Both of these climates show some common characteristics such as very little precipitation and few specialized plants which can survive in these conditions.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

There are some specific ethical guidelines and standards for the forensic scientists to follow. But it was not always so. Investigate how the standards and ethics code came to be established over the years. Also, discuss whether they have helped as much as they should have.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The field of forensic science is important to the criminal justice system. Forensic personnel must pay close attention to detail during the collection, preservation, and analysis of physical evidence. If evidence is mishandled, manipulated, or misinterpreted it can potentially destroy a case and/or the lives of all individuals involved

Answer:

Explanation:

In 1904, Scotland Yard officials introduced fingerprint matching to US law enforcement officials at the World’s Fair. The fact that forensic science was not born from the scientific community meant that forensic scientists were not always bound to the quest for knowledge, but instead for the purpose of solving crimes. This difference led to misaligned incentives. Expert witnesses were often paid per conviction in many states.

In the late 1980s, DNA evidence, which was born in the scientific community, has helped identify the guilty and exonerate the innocent. Many other forensic techniques, such as hair microscopy, ballistics analysis, and arson investigations, have not been subjected to the rigorous scientific evaluation that DNA analysis has. Other techniques, such as blood typing, have been properly validated.

These invalidated techniques have led to the Innocence Project, which holds that forensic science techniques should be shown to be valid and reliable through research and assessment of validity and reliability, and subject to accreditation and certification to assure quality. States are eligible to receive grant money if they do so. This change has resulted in the growth of many organizations, such as the ASCLD/LAB, that accredit forensic scientists.

You are doing lab work with a new species of beetle. You have isolated lines that breed true for either blue shells and long antenna or green shells and short antenna. Crossing these lines yields F1 progeny with blue shells and long antenna. Crossing F1 progeny with beetles that have green shells and short antenna yields the following progeny: Phenotypes Number Blue shell, long antenna 82 Green shell, short antenna 78 Blue shell, short antenna 37 Green shell, long antenna 43 Total 240 Assuming that the genes are linked, what is the map distance between them in m.u.

Answers

Answer:

The map distance = 33.3 cM

Explanation:

Let us take,

BBLL  as blue shell, long antenna .........Parent 1

bbll  as green shell, short antenna .......... Parent 2

Then, cross between parent 1 and parent 2, which is

BBLL X bbll

The F1 generation will be heterzygous

BbLl as blue shell, long antenna ...... F1 offspring

By the test cross,

BbLl X bbll :

given,

BL/bl = 82 : Parental

bl/bl = 78 : Parental

Bl/bl = 37 : Recombinant

bL/bl = 43 : Recombinant

Total = 240

Recombination frequency =  {  [tex]\frac{Number of recombinants}{Total offspring}[/tex]}*100

= (80/240)*100 = 33.33 %

Thus, the map distance = 33.3 cM

What happened to the indigenous“medicine man” after Dr. Campbell showed up and why?

Answers

Answer:

The indigenous 'medicine man' flees seeing Dr. Campbell because both Dr Campbell and the medicine man, were in conflict with each other.

Explanation:

'Medicine Man' is a movie directed by John McTiernan, starring Sean Connery(as Dr. Robert Campbell) and Lorraine Bracco(as Dr. Rae Crane). The film is about Dr. Campbell who sets into the forest of Amazon and finds the cure to cancer.

The Medicine man is the one who informed Dr. Campbell about the flowers containing 'ju-ju' (powers to heal). But after Campbell cured a little boy having gas by 'alka-seltzer', they both were in conflict of each other.

So, when Dr. Campbell showed up with the man and a little boy suffering from malignant neoplasms at the medicine man doorsteps, the indigenous medicine man flees from there.

Activator or repressor proteins which bind DNA to regulate the transcription of genes do so mainly by: A. Covalent interactions between the protein and specific bases in the major groove of DNA B. Covalent interactions of Zn2 atoms with the phosphodiester backbone C. Non-covalent interactions between the protein and specific bases in the major groove of DNA D. Covalent interactions with nearby nucleosomes E. Answers B and D are correct

Answers

Answer:

C. Non-covalent interactions between the protein and specific bases in the major groove of DNA

Explanation:

Activator or repressor proteins are proteins with specific DNA-binding domains that have affinity by one or two DNA strands. In general, these proteins interact with the major groove of the B-DNA structure since this structure exposes more functional groups for binding. Non-covalent interactions are a type of interaction that does not involve the sharing of electrons. The interaction between proteins and DNA is due to the combination of different non-covalent interactions, which can be classified into four major types: van der Waals, hydrophobic, hydrogen and ionic interactions.

Evaluate these statements about Koch's postulates, which are used to establish a causative link between a specific microbe and a specific disease. Which of them are true

Answers

Answer:

The following statements are true:

The microbe must be present in individuals suffering from the disease and absent from healthy individuals.

If organisms from the pure culture are injected into a healthy experimental animal, the disease symptoms should appear.

The microbe must be isolated and grown in pure culture.

Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is given below:

Evaluate these statements about Koch's postulates, which are used to establish a causative link between a specific microbe and a specific disease. Which of them are true? Select all that apply.

The microbe must be present in individuals suffering from the disease and absent from healthy individuals.

The microbe does not have to be isolated from the experimental animal as long as the disease is present.

If organisms from the pure culture are injected into a healthy experimental animal, the disease symptoms should appear.

The microbe must be isolated and grown in pure culture.

Explanation:

Robert Koch, a German Physician, in 1884 postulated the following four criteria in order to establish a causative relationship between a microbe and a disease;

The microorganism must be found in abundance in all organisms suffering from the disease, but should not be found in healthy organisms. The microorganism must be isolated from a diseased organism and grown in pure culture. The cultured microorganism should cause disease when introduced into a healthy organism. The microorganism must be reisolated from the inoculated, diseased experimental host and identified as being identical to the original specific causative agent.

From the above, the following out of the statements are true:

The microbe must be present in individuals suffering from the disease and absent from healthy individuals.

If organisms from the pure culture are injected into a healthy experimental animal, the disease symptoms should appear.

The microbe must be isolated and grown in pure culture.

Which is the name of the group of spermatophytes that are cone-bearing plants?

A. Lycophytes
B. Bryophytes
C. Gymnosperms
D.angiosperms

Answers

Answer:

Gymnosperms

Explanation:

Gymnosperms produce both male and female cones, each making the gametes needed for fertilization; this makes them heterosporous. Megaspores made in cones develop into the female gametophytes inside the ovules of gymnosperms, while pollen grains develop from cones that produce microspores.

Gymnosperms are name of the group of spermatophytes that are cone-bearing plants. The correct option is C.

What are gymnosperms?

In contrast to angiosperms, or flowering plants, whose seeds are encapsulated by mature ovaries or fruits, a gymnosperm is any vascular plant that propagates through a bare seed, or ovule.

Many gymnosperm seeds are borne in cones and are not visible until the plant matures.

Gymnosperms are a small class of plants that rarely flower and produce "bare seeds." This means that the seeds are produced on the reproductive structure's surface rather than within it, as in a fruit.

Gymnosperms are a spermatophyte plant group that includes cone-bearing plants.

Thus, the correct option is C.
