The extensive size of the fires that burned Yellowstone National Park in 1988 caught both land managers and ecologists by surprise. Many forests suffered intense infernos that removed virtually all vegetation. Some speculated that the park would never recover. Based on what you learned and disturbance and succession, is it likely that the park was irrevocably altered

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It is not possible that the park has been irrevocably altered.

Explanation:

The fires are part of the ecology of Yellowstone National Park, and there is a very low risk that this park will be irreversibly modified after a fire. It is scientifically proven that Yellowstone has recovered from fires in a period of thirty years and that the risk of this recovery not happening is very low. In addition, the natural fires that occur in Yellowstone are, in a way, important for the maintenance of the park's ecosystem, since they are able to break the seed dormancy  that are in the soil, in addition to promoting the opening of the serine pine cones.

Seed dormancy is the difficulty of germinating that some seeds present, even in an environment with favorable conditions for germination.

A prospective groom, who is healthy, has a sister with cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disease. Their parents are normal. The brother plans to marry a woman who has no history of CF in her family. What is the probability that they will produce a CF child? They are both Caucasian, and the overall frequency of CF in the Caucasian population is 1/2500—that is, 1 affected child per 2500. (Assume the population meets the Hardy-Weinberg assumptions.)

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Since the parent are normal; Let assume that their trait is Pp

The affected sister  will be recessive in nature, so the trait will be pp

Now, the husband who is the groom will be a carrier with a probability of 2/3 since her sister is affected.

Also, the wife will be carrying a heterozygous trait since she is normal as well.

However, using Hardy-Weinberg assumption:

[tex]q^2 = \dfrac{1}{2500}= 0.0004[/tex]

[tex]q = \sqrt{0.0004}[/tex]

q = 0.02

Recall that:

[tex]p+q =1 \\ p = 1 - q \\p = 1 - 0.02 \\p = 0.98\\[/tex]

Thus, [tex]p^2 = (0.98)^2[/tex]

[tex]p^2 = 0.9604[/tex]

[tex]2pq = 2 \times 0.98 \times 0.022[/tex]

2pq = 0.0392

Finally, the required probability that there will be an affected offspring amongst the family is:

[tex]= \dfrac{1}{4} \times \dfrac{2}{3} \times 0.0392[/tex]

[tex]= \dfrac{1}{153}[/tex]

How many grams of water can be heated from 20.0 oC to 75oC using 12500.0 Joules? The specific heat of water = 4.186 joule/gram °C

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - 0.054 kg

Explanation:

Given:

change in temperature: 55°C

Heat energy = 12500 J

specific heat = 4.186

Formula:

The formula for Heat Energy is given by:

Q = mcp∆T

here: Q - Heat Energy

m is for mass

cp is for specific heat

∆T is a change in temperature,

Solution:

From formula,

m = Q/ cΔT

Mass = 12500 / (55 × 4200)

= 0.054 kg or 54 g

Ecosystem engineers are able to modify the surrounding environment, either by creating new habitats or modifying/destroying existing ones to adjust them to their needs. These species can significantly alter their environments, having a large impact on the species richness as well as modifying the availability of abiotic factors (e.g., water, space, etc) of a particular area. In certain environments, ecosystem engineers can even act as keystone species. Some examples of ecosystem engineers include, among others, beavers, woodpeckers, corals, etc.

14. Kidneys are filters. As blood passes through the kidney, waste in the form of urine is
left behind. Tubes take the urine from the kidney to a storage bag called the bladder.
What can you conclude about blood leaving the kidney?
A. It moves to the bladder.
B. It has no water left in it.
C. It is ready to be used by the body.
D. It needs to have urine added to it

Answers

Answer:

D. It needs to have urine in it

Explanation:

They are located just below the rib cage, one on each side of your spine. Healthy kidneys filter about a half cup of blood every minute, removing wastes and extra water to make urine. The urine flows from the kidneys to the bladder through two thin tubes of muscle called ureters, one on each side of your bladder. The fluid that is filtered out from the blood then travels down a tiny tube-like structure called a tubule. The tubule adjusts the level of salts, water, and wastes that will leave the body in the urine. Filtered blood leaves the kidney through the renal vein and flows back to the heart.

Scenario 1:

Genetic engineering can be used to create more productive strains of farm animals. By adding genes to an animal's DNA, the animal can be made to produce milk or meat containing vital nutrients that would not be found naturally in those products. This provides a greater amount of nutrients per serving of milk or meat.

In the future, doctors may be able to evaluate your DNA to check for genetic markers related to specific medical conditions or harmful reactions to medications. Your personalized genetic profile could be kept on record and referred to in order to develop personal medical treatment based on your unique DNA sequencing.

Scenario 2:
Question 1:
I would want to have my DNA profile kept in a medical record for doctors to see, because if anything ever happens to me, and they need a reading of my DNA they have it available.
Question 2:
There are definitely pros and cons for having tests done and referring to DNA sequences when trying to refer to a patient's medical treatment. A pro would be that doing this it gives a lot of information about your DNA, and it provides helpful information so if doctors ever needed to perform treatment, that would be a good source for them to go too. A con would be if you ever have a treatment done, and scientists refer to your DNA sequence and proscribe medicine, they won't know how you will react to the medicine, and if it will work.
Question 3:
Having this technology now will definitely help us pin-point any genetic diseases in individuals, because of the copies of their DNA.

Answer:

i tried my best (so many questions on scenario 2)

Explanation:

scenario 1: there are many positive and negative possible impacts that come with genetic engineering. A very negative outcome could come from just one mistake.  But if there was a way to ensure that nothing could go wrong than the outcome would be an healthy new meat or milk that's packed with nutrients.

scenario 2:  I think if this was a real thing i would be completely for it. If a person was to get their DNA checked then doctors would be able to prescribe a medication that would fit you. this could also prevent any allergic reactions to and medications or treatments.

I personally would want my DNA profile kept on record so that i can be treated with the right medications for me.

1. Predict: How do you expect the spread of a foodborne disease to be similar to and different

from the spread of a person-to-person disease?

PLEASE ANSWER

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The transmission of diseases through food and through people to people, are similar because both are caused by human contact with infectious parasitic agents such as bacteria and viruses. However, it is possible to notice some differences between these two types of transmissions.

Transmission of disease through food occurs when an individual eats contaminated food or drinks contaminated liquid. This contamination occurs due to the lack of hygiene of the handlers and storage problems, which can allow microorganisms, mostly bacteria, to grow in the food. Thus, when the contaminated food is ingested, the microorganisms will release toxins in the stomach that will cause disease. In the case of water, contamination can also happen due to the lack of basic sanitation and the incorrect dumping of garbage and human waste.

Diseases transmitted from person to person can occur in many different ways. One of the best known ways is through the contact of a healthy person with salivary goths or other body fluids of a person with the disease. However, this transmission can also occur through the contact of a healthy individual with the feces of a sick individual and even with physical contact with a sick individual.
