Why don’t mosses grow very tall?
They need energy to make food, which they get by being close to the ground.
They don’t have roots, so they must be near water.
They need to send out spores via water.
They have seeds that need to roll away.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Hello~

Llamalover here!

Mosses have some water-conducting cells, but they do not have the empty, lignin-reinforced cells that allow vascular plants to transport water with strong pressure gradients. Thus, mosses have very limited water transport ability and can't grow very tall.

So, your answer is They need to send out spores via water. I believe

Answer:

I can't definitively answer this because I don't know the experiment, but I can help.

Explanation:

The "control group" of an experiment is like a dry simulation, where there is no variables changed across all the different trials you do. This is different from a dependent variable or an independent variable. Using your newfound knowledge of what a control group is you can automatically cross off the last option.

Since I cannot see what your experiment was I can't give you which of the top 3 answers it is however. You need to look at which one has no change.

If I were to blindly guess I would say the top option seems like the most likely answer.

Antigens are foreign proteins that invade the systems of organisms. Vaccines function by stimulating an organism's immune system to develop antibodies against a particular antigen. Developing a vaccine involves producing an antigen that can be introduced into the organism being vaccinated and which will trigger an immune response without causing the disease associated with the antigen. Certain strains of bacteria can be used to produce antigens used in vaccines. Which of the following best explains how bacteria can be genetically engineered to produce a desired antigen? A. The gene coding for the antigen can be inserted into plasmids that can be used to transform the bacteria. B. The bacteria need to be exposed to the antigen so they can produce the antibodies. C. The DNA of the antigen has to be transcribed in order for the mRNA produced to be inserted into the bacteria. D. The mRNA of the antigen has to be translated in order for the protein to be inserted into the bacteria.

Answers

Answer:

A. The gene coding for the antigen can be inserted into plasmids that can be used to transform the bacteria.

Explanation:

Genetic engineering is the process of manipulating an organim's genome in order to yield a desirable result. According to this question, a vaccine is to be created using an antigen that will trigger an immune response against the particular disease in the involved organism.

However, the antigens needs to be produced by genetically engineering/modifying bacteria. To do this, the gene coding for the antigen can be inserted into plasmids, an extra-chromosomal DNA, that can be used to transform the bacteria. In other words, the plasmid + antigen gene, which represents the recombinant DNA will confer upon the transformed bacteria the ability to produce the antigen.

Answer:

The gene coding for the antigen can be inserted into plasmids that can be used to transform the bacteria.

Nonnative species can cause serious problems with marine ecosystem biodiversity. The graph shows a summary of the different methods by which invasive species reach new locations based on United States Geological Survey data as of 2016. Based on this information, what recommendation could be made to reduce introductions?

A- Methods should be put in place to reduce the ability of species from escaping from captivity and establishing themselves in new locations.

B- People should take extra care when setting up a home fish tank to be certain that all organisms in it will be properly maintained so that the animals remain healthy and diseases are not spread.

C- Science should more closely study the genetics of the different organisms used to prevent mixing of DNA.

D- Ships should install some form of cleansing mechanisms before releasing their ballast water during transport and should be checked for unintended cargo.

Answers

Answer: D

Explanation: 20% of invasive species are introduced by Shipping so checking the ballast tanks in cargo ships would help the most I think

To reduce introductions of Non-native species, ships should install some form of cleansing mechanisms before releasing their ballast water during transport and also check for unintended cargo.

What are non-native species?

Non-native species are also called invasive species. They are called so as they are foreign or not indigenous to a particular ecosystem and have been introduced to the said ecosystem by some unnatural methods.

These species show a high capacity for adaptation to their new environment. They quickly multiply and reproduce and therefore increase in population.

This sudden and unnatural increase in their population soon after they are introduced to a new environment will greatly affect the ecosystem of the new environment. The new species will compete with the native organisms of that environment for resources. This may cause the native flora or fauna to become endangered or even extinct.

The accidental introduction of invasive species happens quite often and causes a lot of problems. In a marine ecosystem, it happens a lot due to the ships that travel through a variety of marine regions.

So, ships should install some form of cleansing mechanisms before releasing their ballast water during transport and should be checked for unintended cargo.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

what are notes for the nervous system section in edge?
plz tell me the truth

Answers

Answer:

The Brain

In the brain, the cerebrum is the largest part; it controls voluntary movement (actions you choose to do), sensory processing (vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch), speech, memory, intelligence, and emotion. The cerebrum allows you to move your muscles and know what to do when you're playing. Next, the cerebellum helps regulate motor control, coordination, and balance. The cerebellum lets you play your favorite sport since it detects shifts in balance when you're moving then sends signals to your body so it can adjust and move smoothly. The brain stem has several necessary functions: however, the medulla oblongata, which connects the brain and spinal cord, best helps you play sports since it executes a critical role in regulating involuntary functions, including respiration (breathing), heart rate, blood flow/pressure, and digestion. It is essential when exercising since it controls your heart to pump blood and deliver oxygen throughout your body; respiration provides the energy you need when playing sports and oxygen to your heart.

Neurons

However, we can go into further analysis, as three types of neurons transmit information throughout your body: sensory neurons, interneurons, and motor neurons. Sensory and motor neurons are located in the PNS (Peripheral Nervous System), while the CNS (Central Nervous System) holds the interneurons.

When you react to something, your body decides what it should do by sending impulses throughout the body.

Sensory Neurons

First, sensory neurons convey the information from the sensory organs (PNS) into the CNS.

Interneurons

The interneurons receive the impulses from sensory neurons in the CNS then relay the brain's response to motor neurons.

Motor Neurons

Finally, motor neurons transport impulses from the spinal cord (CNS) to the muscles or glands in your body.

Explanation:

A prokaryotic organism is an organism that does not possess a membrane-bound nucleus that houses its genetic material. Organisms grouped under this domain are bacteria, archaebacteia etc.

According to this question, Fernanda goes for a blood sample because she felt sick. The result of the blood sampling shows that the cells of Fernanda contain a pathogen that seems to be made of small cells with no nucleus. This property describes a prokaryotic pathogen. Hence, the infection is most likely to be that of a BACTERIAL INFECTION.

Note that, a fungus is eukaryotic while a virus is considered non-living because it can only replicate in a living host.

Answers

Answer:

a. Independent Variable: different sized aquariums

b. Dependent Variable: number of surviving fish

c. Controlled Variables/Constants: amount and type of food, aquarium maintenance and water temperature

d. Experimental Controls/Control Groups: none

Explanation:

In an experiment, the dependent variable is the condition that is being measured or tested in the experimental procedure, while the independent variable isn't changed and serves to measure the outcome of the dependent variable. Moreover, the constant variables are those conditions that stay the same in the experiment. As observed in the case above described, an experiment usually has multiple constant variables. Finally, a control group is composed of individuals/research subjects who do not receive the experimental treatment, and therefore they can be used to compare the outcomes observed in the experimental groups.

Why might it be an issue to cut the trees down to build a home/shelter? How would that impact the respiration/photosynthesis cycle?

Answers

Answer:

Trees are one of the most important things lives

Because the trees take our carbon dioxide and gives us oxygen in return. It will also low the rate of oxygen provided by trees leading to may be increase in the global warming rate, and also production of heat and suffocation in crowded rooms

Trees and plants, in general, produce energy for growth using a process known as photosynthesis. Using light, water and carbon dioxide, a plant produces energy in the form of sugar and releases oxygen into the air. Forests cover approximately 30 percent of the land on earth and sustain nearly 80 percent of the world's terrestrial organisms. It is estimated that one acre of trees in urban forests can produce enough oxygen for eight people and remove 188 pounds of carbon dioxide from the air.

Oxygen comprises only about 21 percent of air's chemical component. Yet, it is extremely important to life on earth. Living organisms, from single-celled animals to humans, use oxygen to produce the energy required to sustain them. Since trees are larger plants, their production of oxygen is significant. It is estimated that tropical rainforests, produce 40 percent of the earth's oxygen even though they cover only about 6 percent of the land. Rainforests in the Amazon have declined by 17 percent in the last 50 years as a result of deforestation.

What needs to change so that only the green solutes diffuse across the membrane?

Answers

Diffusion is a process which allows particles to move from areas of high concentration to areas of lower concentration. The process requires that particles are moving. As long as particles are not at a temperature of 0K (absolute zero) they have kinetic energy (energy of movement).

What need to be changed is ; The use of selectively/semi-permeable membrane

To selectively allow the passage ( diffusion ) of a certain type of solute through a membrane in a solution, we should make use of a selectively permeable membrane which allows only the passage of a certain type of solute contained in the solution ( like the green solutes ).

The use of permeable membrane in a solution is to selectively allow flow of solutes or solvent from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration.

Hence we can conclude that what needs to be change is The use of selectively/semi-permeable membrane will allow only the green solutes to diffuse across.
