My city: ______

What is the latitude of your city? _______________

The sun’s heat does not warm the Earth evenly. Areas near the equator are the hottest, and the further away you get from the equator in either direction (north or south) the cooler it gets.

In your own words answer this: If 0º latitude is hot and 90º latitude is cold, would you predict the weather in your city to be relatively warm or relatively cool? Why?

C- All members of the population are genetically similar and are less likely to survive environmental change.

Explanation:

In asexual reproduction, there is no diversity since the offspring gets all their genes from their parent. That being said, they won't be able to inherit traits that would help them survive in a changing environment since there is no diversity of traits that would help them in other environments.

The oxygen released during photosynthesis comes from molecules of water
True or False

Answers

Answer: False

Photolysis takes place in the light dependent reaction of the photosynthesis. The reaction can be represented as:  H 2 O + 2 photons --> 2 e  −   + 2H  +   + O.  Here, the electrons released are accepted by the photosystem to fulfill the electron gap. The last electron acceptor is the oxygen and thus, the oxygen is liberated from the water molecule. The experiments conducted by Samuel Ruben and Martin Kamen by using radioactive isotopes helped to prove that the oxygen liberated during photosynthesis came from photolysis the water.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process in which light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of sugars. In a process driven by light energy, glucose molecules (or other sugars) are constructed from water and carbon dioxide, and oxygen is released as a byproduct.Carbon dioxide is released during photosynthesis. Plants which synthesise their food themselves are called saprotrophs.

the role of a producer is to :
A)eat orher consumer
2)provide food for carnivores 3)make carbon dioxide
4)provide food for themselves and other organism

Answers

Answer:

4)provide food for themselves and other organisms

Explanation:

Could you explain the roles and relationships among producers, consumers, and decomposers, and identify the distinguished characteristics of several common relationships among organisms in an ecosystem near you?

Answers

Answer:

A consumer may also eat other consumers as food. When producers and consumers die, the Decomposer will come along to decompose (break down) the bodies of the dead producers and consumers into smaller chemicals - in short treating them as a food source

Explanation:

Your welcome have a good day :)

The producers, consumers, and decomposers are related to each other in an ecosystem in a specific way.

What is an Ecosystem?

The interaction between the organisms of different species plays their role in a systematic way as decided by natural selection, which is known as the Ecosystem.

Producers use light energy and inorganic matter to produce food. They are always present first in the ecosystem. Consumers take energy from plants known as herbivores, and also from herbivores known as Carnivores. Decomposers convert dead organic matter into inorganic matter. This inorganic matter helps producers perform metabolic activities. And finally, this cycle goes on.

Therefore, the producers, consumers, and decomposers are related to each other in an ecosystem in a specific way.

If an organism inherits 1 dominant allele from one parent and 1 recessive allele from the other parent, what is it called?

Answers

Answer:

heterozygous

Explanation:

An allele is a variant form of a gene. Some genes have a variety of different forms, which are located at the same position, or genetic locus, on a chromosome. Humans are called diploid organisms because they have two alleles at each genetic locus, with one allele inherited from each parent. Each pair of alleles represents the genotype of a specific gene. Genotypes are described  as heterozygous if the two alleles differ.

does coal releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere?​

Answers

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

Coal is an important source of energy in the United States, and the Nation's reliance on this fossil fuel for electricity generation is growing. The combustion of coal, however, adds a significant amount of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere per unit of heat energy, more than does the combustion of other fossil fuels

Answer:

Fossil fuels release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which increases levels of carbon dioxide and other gases, trapping heat, and contributing to global climate change. This means that coal does release greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide, into the atmosphere.

3.4 and 5

Answers

Answer: 2, 4 and 5.

Explanation:

Human system are made of various organs which in turn are made up of various tissues which in turn are made up of various cells. Cells are therefore much more numerous than systems.

As already mentioned, organs are made up of tissues which are made up of cells so statement 4 is right.

As systems are made up of various organs working together, they are more complex than the individual organs. For instance, the Muscular system is more complex than the triceps or bicep muscles.

Analogy and homology are important concepts used in comparing species. Traits are homologous if they are derived, evolutionarily and developmentally, from the same source structure. Traits are analogous if they have similar functions but are derived, evolutionarily and developmentally, from different source structures. A classic example of analogous structures is insect wings and bat wings. Which of the following pairs of structures are analogous and which are homologous?

a. Dorsal fins of porpoise and a salmon
b. Flippers of porpoise and pectoral fins (front fins) of salmon
c. Joined leg of ladybird beetle and a robin
d. Rhesus monkey's tail and human's coccyx
e. Bright red bracts of poinsettia and green leaves of rose
f. Red bracts on a poinsettia and red petals on rose

Answers

Answer:

a. analogous

b. homologous

c. analogous

d. homologous  

e. homologous

f. homologous  

Explanation:

a. Analogous. Porpoises are mammals while salmon are fish. In this case, fins are analogous structures that evolved separately in both groups.

b. Homologous. Pectoral fins evolved from the forearms of tetrapods, and early tetrapods evolved from fish.

c. Analogous. These structures evolved independently through convergent evolution in both groups.

d. Homologous. They are homologous structures that were inherited from a common ancestor (primates).

e. Homologous. Bright red bracts (modified leaves) of poinsettia and green leaves of rose share a common ancestor (i.e., angiosperms).

f. Homologous. They are homologous structures that were inherited from a common ancestor (i.e., angiosperms).

TMV Assembly Each of these statements is an experimental observation concerning the reassembly of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) virions from TMV RNA and coat protein subunits. In each case, carefully state a reasonable conclusion that can be drawn from the experimental finding.
a. When RNA from a specific strain of TMV is mixed with coat protein from the same strain, infectious virions are formed.
b. When RNA from strain A of TMV is mixed with coat protein from strain B, the reassembled virions are infectious, giving rise to strain A virus particles in the infected tobacco cells.
c. Isolated coat protein monomers can polymerize into a virus-like helix in the absence of RNA.
d. In infected plant cells, the TMV virions that form contain only TMV RNA and never any of the various kinds of cellular RNAs present in the host cell.
e. Regardless of the ratio of RNA to coat protein in the starting mixture, the reassembled virions always contain RNA and coat protein in the ratio of three nucleotides of RNA per coat protein monomer.

Answer:

Explanation:

tobacco mossaic virus is aa RNA containing virus enclosed in aaprotein coat. in above sttaed experiment when TMV cause infection in tobacco plant is leaves get infected due to replication of virus in its cells. RNA is first converted into complementary DNA and form a double stranded nucliec acid structure. it syntheaize its protein to make new coats and to wrap the newly synthesized RNA, and make a completely infected new virus which we called virion. in any case the number of coats are equal to RNA so that to prepare new viruse. n
