How did Alexander Fleming contribute to Science?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Discovered penicillin  

Explanation:

Alexander Fleming accidentally discovered penicillin in 1928. He left dirty petri dishes in his laboratory. When he did clean them, he discovered a mold growth, and around this mold, no bacteria were present. There were bacteria in other regions, but none around the growth. He then knew that he discovered an antibiotic: penicillin.

He received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1945 for his findings. Today, penicillin is used to fight bacterial infections such as pneumonia.

Answer 2

It has often been said that the next dominant animals on land, after a hypothetical demise of all mammals, would be the insects. Why so?

Answers

Explanation:

The animals that dominate the Earth today are the human species or Homo sapiens. Many factors have allowed the species to dominate the Earth-like use of new tools, vocal cords, and an increased sense of intellect and natural intelligence. But today we can observe the social wars, epidemic, and harm to our planet which could result in the extinction of humans.  

The scientist has hypothesized that after the Homo sapiens, new dominating species will be insects as this group of the organism has:

1. Survived many mass extinctions.

2. are highly adaptable to extreme conditions.

3. Has evolved many adaptive features to protect itself from prey like a tough exoskeleton, few to many legs, bombarding in few species when someone tries to eat it, and many others.

What are greenhouse gasses? How does carbon dioxide enter the atmosphere? (Site 1)

Answers

Answer:

1. Greenhouse gases are compounds that are able to trap heat in the atmosphere, keeping the Earth's surface warmer than it would be if they were not present. These gases are mainly carbon dioxide; metahne, nitrous oxide, and flourinated gases.

2. Carbon dioxide enters the atmosphere from animals and plants through the process of respiration and the burning of fossil fuels from industries.

Answer:

The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon, which, helps maintain the relatively stable, livable, range of temperatures that we find on earth. To better understand how this phenomenon works, scientists have used the analogy of the greenhouse. In a greenhouse, the glass (the atmosphere) allows the radiant energy (light) of the sun to enter. As the radiant energy strikes various plants, gases, and objects in the greenhouse, they heat up. Their heat is then released back into the air of the greenhouse as infrared radiation (heat). This infrared radiation cannot travel through the glass and remains inside the greenhouse, increasing the temperature inside the greenhouse. Temperatures can be controlled, or kept in balance, by allowing some of the heat to remain inside and some to be vented to the outside. Under normal conditions, the earth's atmosphere works in a similar manner. Solar radiation enters the atmosphere and heats up the air molecules, the surface of the earth, buildings, plants, and other objects. These objects in turn, radiate infrared radiation back out into the atmosphere, where some of this radiation is absorbed by the greenhouse gases, and some is radiated out into space. As some of the heat stays in the atmosphere and some escapes into spaces, a balance is maintained allowing our planet to have a relatively stable range of temperatures. Scientists believe that as the greenhouse gases become more abundant in the atmosphere, due mainly to the burning of fossil fuels, they retain more and more infrared radiation, allowing less and less to escape into space, tipping the balance toward heating up the atmosphere, resulting in a changing and warmer climate, planet-wide. This is the accelerated greenhouse effect.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Mutations can occur in either cell type. If a gene is altered in a germ cell, the mutation is termed a germinal mutation. Because germ cells give rise to gametes, some gamete s will carry the mutation and it will be passed on to the next generation when the individual successfully mates.
