50 pointss!! Name three things that threaten the water supply. How do you believe you can correct one of these problems in your city and/or state?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Microbes, salts, and pollution from agriculture and industry all contribute to the problem. Global warming will likely have major impacts on the world's freshwater resources.

Explanation:

Water source protection involves the protection of surface water sources and the protection of groundwater sources from contamination of any kind. Water source protection includes basic measures and rules such as the installation of a fence around the source or the banning of grazing animals in the surrounding area.

Grass and Dandelions- Both plants try to get nutrients and water from the same area
of soil

O parasitism
O Competition
O Predation
O Commensalism
O Mutualism

Answers

Answer:

Mutualism

Explanation:

Both plants don't fight over the spot and are in within the same place.

Grass and Dandelions both compete for nutrients and water belongs to the same species, competition occurs between the same species called interspecific competition, hence option b is correct.

What is the interaction between Grass and Dandelions?

When two distinct species fight for a restricted resource, such as space, this is known as interspecific competition. Grass, dandelions, and a variety of other plants compete for nutrients and water on a lawn.

Competition happens among individuals of the same species as well.  The deep taproot draws minerals from the earth, such as calcium, and makes them available to other plants. While most think of dandelions as lawn killers, they really enrich the grass.

It will attach itself to sharks and other large fish in order to get a ride underwater. This is an example of commensalism but this connection can evolve into mutualism when the remora feeds.

Therefore belongs to the same species kind of interspecific relation, Grass and Dandelions having the interaction of competition, hence option b is correct.

A sample of Potassium-40 has a mass of 2020 grams.
Potassium-40 has a half life of 1.3 b.y. How much Potassium-40 and Argon 40 would there be after 5.2 b.y.

Answers

The idea here is that the ratio that exists between the number of atoms of argon-40 and the number of atoms of potassium-40 will give you the number of half-lives that passed.

As you know, the half-life of a radioactive nuclide tells you the time needed for half of the atoms of said nuclide to undergo radioactive decay.

In your case, you know that potassium-40 has a half-life of

1.25

billion years because that's how long it takes for half of the number of atoms present in the sample to decay to argon-40.

Now, let's say that your sample started with

A

K-40

atoms of potassium-40 and

0

atoms of argon-40.

You can thus say that the sample will contain--keep in mind that the atoms of potassium that decay form argon-40!

A

you can say that

This means that

5

half lives must pass in order for the sample to contain

Consequently, you can say that the age of the rock is

I'll leave the answer rounded to three sig figs, but keep in mind that you have two significant figures for the number of atoms of argon-40 present per atom of potassium-40.

How might retaining too much heat be a disadvantage to an organism?

Answers

Answer:

Too much heat can disrupt subcellular structures such as membrane proteins, and enzymes while damaging the integrity of the plasma membrane.

Explanation:

Proteins are macromolecules made up of amino acids. These fold and bond to form several biologically important molecules. For instance, enzymes, a special type of protein functions by providing alternative reaction pathways. They work best at a specific pH and optimal temperature range, beyond which they become non-functional  or denatured entirely.

The denaturing of proteins occur at high temperatures, and alter protein folding, bonding and other types of behavior. Furthermore, membrane proteins are  important for regulating cell function. If these are disrupted, the system cannot maintain homeostasis i.e a constant internal environment.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis, occurs in the chloroplasts of plants. Here, solar  energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of stable carbohydrates.

             6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light  →  C6H12O6 + 6 O2

Chloroplasts, are small membrane-bound organelles of multi-folded membranes containing pigments, enzymes, and other molecules that facilitate the process.

Nutrients for a number of metabolic processes are basic compounds and macromolecules available. Through processing organic matter such as lipids, fats and proteins, animals get energy in heterotrophic nutrition.

For one for all metabolic processes, animals use carbohydrates as food. This occurs in the mitochondria...
