Scientists are concerned that melting glaciers are exposing long frozen animals. When the ice melts, the animals thaw and begin to decompose. What gas will be produced during decomposition? Will this increase or decrease the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

During the bloat stage of decomposition of matter, many gases begin to accumulate. These gases include hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrogen. Therefore since carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of these gases then we can say that yes, the decomposition of the once frozen animals will increase the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.

How is cotton candy made ?

Answers

Answer:

When you pour sugar into the center of a cotton candy machine, the coils inside heat the sugar to its melting point and break the bonds of the constituent molecules. The hydrogen and oxygen atoms rearrange to form water molecules and promptly evaporate, leaving only carbon behind. the candy is made by heating.

if this helped pls mark as brainliest

Answer:

Cotton candy is a spun sugar confection that resembles cotton. It usually contains small amounts of flavoring or food coloring. The candy is made by heating and liquefying sugar, spinning it centrifugally through minute holes—by which the sugar rapidly cools and re-solidifies into fine strands.

Explain the relationship between the sensors, control center communication systems and targets when maintaining homeostasis.

Answers

Answer:

Homeostasis es la constancia del Medio interno, aún frente a las variaciones del Medio externo

(Cannon). El Medio interno se relaciona con la complejidad de los seres vivos.

Según Teoría de la Evolución, el primer ser vivo surgió en el mar, formado por una sola célula, la cual

intercambiaba nutrientes y desechos metabólicos con su Medio externo.

De los Unicelulares evolucionaron los Pluricelulares, los cuales debían solucionar el problema del

intercambio de nutrientes, oxigeno y desechos de las células que se encuentran en su interior. De esta

forma se desarrolló un ambiente interno, que permitió la vida libre e independiente.

El Medio interno está representado por el Líquido extracelular que rodea a las células de los Pluricelulares,

con una composición estable que permite los intercambios metabólicos y la comunicación celular.

El 60 % del peso corporal humano es agua, la cual se encuentra distribuida en un 40% del peso corporal en

el Líquido intracelular y en un 20% en el Líquido extracelular.

Del total del Líquido extracelular un 80% corresponde al Líquido intersticial y un 20% al Plasma sanguíneo.

El Líquido intersticial o tisular debe mantenerse constante, para lo cual se requiere la ayuda del

Sistema circulatorio.

El Plasma sanguíneo intercambia oxigeno y nutrientes, dióxido de carbono y desechos con el Líquido

extracelular a nivel de los Capilares sanguíneos, debido a lo cual en ambos líquidos la concentración de

solutos es igual, a excepción de las proteínas.

Según Starling, existe un equilibrio entre el volumen de líquidos que sale del capilar arterial y el que

vuelve por los capilares venosos.

El Líquido intracelular varía de célula a célula del punto de vista cuantitativo, guardando similitud en la

composición celular desde el punto de vista cualitativo

Almost all of the corn used for food in the world today comes from the duplication of a few selected genetic strains. Describe one benefit and one drawback of using this method.

Answers

Answer:

One benefit is the adaptability and survivability of the corn in a condition that favors this genetic strain.

They are all susceptible to almost the same unfavorable condition and lack adaptability.

Explanation:

Since all the corns have the same genetic strain, this means that they all are closely related and are probably progeny of the same long line of corn. Having the same genetic strain can be favorable if this strain has been selected to suit the conditions of their cultivation area and also to bolster resistance to some dangerous diseases.

In the case where a new condition or disease outbreak is the case, then this is a set back since the genetic strain has not been used to this new conditions. This can lead to extensive damage that may even be close to, if not lead to a complete extinction of this particular corn strain.

Answer:

The benefit is that corn plants will always yield a consistent product because farmers selected against negative genetic characteristics. However, if there’s an environmental change or the threat of a disease, there would be little genetic variation in the crop to improve its chances of survival.

Predict what you think would happen to your community if a drought occurred. Brainstorm how the physical (abiotic factors/non-living organisms) and biological (biotic factors/living organisms) components of your community could be affected.

Answers

Answer:

In my community, if a drought took place, an abiotic factor that would be effected is the soil quality. The soil would dry out which would directly affect biotic factors such as plants and bacteria.  The bacteria in the soil could dry out and die. The plants wouldn't be able to drink water and would become dehydrated and not have the ability to maintain homeostasis, causing them to wilt and die.

Scientists have discovered homeotic genes in many kinds of organisms, including fruit flies, mice, and humans. These homeotic genes regulate gene expression and control patterns of development in specific regions of young embryos. Molecular biologists have learned that homeotic genes share a very similar nucleotide sequence, which controls the development of similar portions of fly and mouse embryos. They have found a similar set of genes in humans, which also control corresponding regions of the developing human embryo.

Which of the following statements summarizes a conclusion based upon the evidence contributed by molecular biologists?

Homeotic Genetics

A.
Patterns of development among different animal species did not evolve from a common ancestor.
B.
Humans evolved from flies.
C.
Similar patterns of development increase an organism’s likelihood of surviving and reproducing.
D.
Fruit flies, mice, and humans provide evidence of divergent evolution.

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The presence of homeotic genes shows that all of the listed organisms (mice, flies, humans etc) all evolved from a common ancestor.

(A) is wrong as the evidence of the same gene existing in vastly different species shows the evolutionary relationship between these organisms.

(B) is wrong as there is insufficient evidence to prove that flies are the precessor of humans. We do know that flies and humans have evolved from a common ancestor though.

(C) is non-conclusive as the passage said nothing about the gene allowing the species to have a higher chance of surviving and reproducing. Hence, an errornous claim.

(D) is the correct answer as from a common ancestor, all of the listed organisms undergo and accumulates mutation, undergoes selective pressures that resulted in divergent evolution (aka branching evolution that results in many noval species forming) after millions of years.

Answer:

I believe it is the Parietal lobe

Explanation:

It knows reading, sensation, body oreintation and knowing left from right.

The human brain just like most other mammals has the same basic structure. But it is better developed than any other mammalian brain. The part of the brain highlighted in the diagram below is Parietal lobe. The correct option is D.

What is brain?

The brain along with the spinal cord constitutes the central nervous system. It is responsible for the thought, interpretation and control of our body movements. It is located within the skull which provides frontal, lateral and dorsal protection.

The human brain controls and coordinates all the physiological functions to cognitive abilities. It performs by sending and receiving signals through neurons to different parts of the body.

The parietal lobe rests near the top and center of the cerebral cortex, that is just behind the frontal lobe and above the occipital and temporal lobes. The parietal lobe is vital for the sensory perception and integration.

Thus the correct option is D.
