How is surface water naturally purified?
A:freezing water destroys impurities

B:evaporation leaves impurities behind

C:sediments precipitate out

D:soil filters the water

Answers

Answer 1
the correct answer is D.

A is wrong because it does not destroy molecules , they cannot be destroyed.

B is wrong because there can still be impurities from the clouds

C is wrong because sediments cannot be precipitated , only water can
Answer 2

The surface water is naturally purified by soils that filters the water. The correct option option is D.

What is soil water filtration?

Soil not only captures water, but it also filters it. Physical, chemical, and biological processes clean the water that flows into and through soil.

When pollutants carried by water become trapped in the small pores of the soil, they are physically cleaned.

Water is cleaned by physical, chemical, and biological processes as it passes through soil.

In addition to its physical filtration capacity, soil contains important biota that helps transform and decompose certain chemicals and other contaminants from soil, thereby aiding in the removal of these contaminants from water.

Groundwater is typically clean and safe to drink. Groundwater is usually free of microorganisms that cause disease because the soil on top acts as a filter.

Thus, the correct option is D.

How do cells get energy from glucose? How do they use that energy?

Answers

Answer:

Image result for How do cells get energy from glucose?

Through the process of cellular respiration, the energy in food is converted into energy that can be used by the body's cells. During cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen are converted into carbon dioxide and water, and the energy is transferred to ATP.

1.What happens when fertilizer ends up in waterways?
2. Describe eutrophication.
3. What has happened at the mouth of the Mississippi River?

Answers

Bxnzjsbdmsgdjcdpdjxjdk
1. When fertilizer ends up in waterways, the fertilizer gets carried to larger bodies of water. The added nutrients from the fertilizer creates excessive growth of algae, creating algal.

2. Eutrophication is what a water based ecosystem does when too much nutrients are added to it. it’s mainly caused by two nutrients, phosphorus and nitrogen. The biggest problem in eutrophication are algal blooms.

3. At the mouth of the Mississippi River there is a dead zone. Due to algae using up all the oxygen, aquatic organisms can not survive there. Things that can help prevent dead zones are cutting down on fertilizer use and preserving wetlands.

Answers

Answer:

1: Mold 2: Cells 3: do all jobs 4: bacteria 5: producing offspring 6: Taxonomy 7: Healing a broken arm 8:obtain energy, produce offspring, maintain their structure 9: soil (I think) 10: food, water, air, and a place to live

Answer:

1. lung.

2. cells.

3. do all jobs for survival.

4. bacteria.

5. producing offspring.

6. Taxonomy.

7. a cell dividing.  

8. obtain energy, produce offspring, and maintain their structure.

9. soil.

10. food, water, air, and a place to live.

Explanation:

1.  all of the other options are organisms, while a lung is an organ.

2. All living things are made of cells

3. All unicellular organisms must be able to perform all the functions necessary for life. Meaning do all the jobs needed for survival.

4. Bacteria is the organism listed that is able to cause an infection or contagious disease.

5. A fish laying hundreds of eggs is an example of producing offspring. While it could also be an example of maintaining structure, a fish cannot obtain energy by laying eggs. So, the best answer is producing offspring.

6. Taxonomy's definition is the branch of science concerned with classification, especially of organisms; systematics.

7. a cell dividing is maintaining structure. After growth, cell division by mitosis allows for continual construction and repair of the organism. The primary concern of cell division is the maintenance of the original cell's genome. So, this is the best option for the question.

8. The second option is wrong, because not every organism plays video games. The 4th option is wrong, because not every organism builds their own home. And finally, the first option is incorrect, because plants do not physically eat they obtain their energy through photosynthesis. So, the correct option is the 3rd one.

9. Soil is not needed for all living organisms, but the other options listed are necessary.

10. the second and third option are incorrect, because not every living thing needs a parent. The first option is incorrect, because not every living thing needs sunshine and it does not list the other necessary components. So, the correct answer is the last option. And a place to live can also mean an appropriate environment.

Sarah the Cheetah ran a 100 meter dash in 5.95 seconds at the San Diego Zoo, setting a new world record for mammals. What was Sarah's speed in Meters per Second? (Just write the number, rounded to the nearest tenth, no units)

Answers

Answer:

16.3 Meters Per Second

Explanation:

To find out the speed, you need to simplify 100/5.95

To do this, you first round up to 6.

[tex]100/6=50/3=16.333333[/tex] meters per second

Rounded up, it is 16.3 Meters per Second

The Sarah's speed in Meters per Second was 16.3 m/s.

What is speed?

Speed is defined as a measurement of the length of time it takes for an object to travel a certain distance. To increase your strength and begin running more quickly, do sprinting drills and exercises including box jumps, high knees, hill sprints, and other core workouts. Strengthening your entire body can also be accomplished by including some type of strength exercise on your off days. Speed is calculated as follows: speed = distance ÷ time. Knowing the units for distance and time is necessary to calculate the units for speed.

You must simplify 100/5.95 to determine the speed.

In order to do this, multiply by 6.

= 100 / 6

= 50 / 3

= 16.33 meters per second.

It is 16.3 meters per second when rounded up.

Thus, the Sarah's speed in Meters per Second was 16.3 m/s.

"Gluten-free" products and advertisements seem to be everywhere. What is this thing called gluten, and why are so many people suddenly cutting it out of their diets when they have been consuming it for years without debate? Gluten is a general name for protein found in wheat, rye, barley, and triticale. It acts as a glue to help certain foods maintain their shape. Most people think that gluten exists only in bread, baked goods, and cereals, but it is also found in soups, sauces, salad dressings, and many other foods that are less commonly known to be associated with wheat. Some scientists claim that gluten is a strange protein and inherently difficult for humans to digest. The reason for this is that there has been a change in the way wheat is produced in the United States over the past several years. Modern cultivation of wheat is done in order to boost the protein content. Research has shown that gluten being used in "modern wheat" makes breaking down certain foods hard on the stomach. Some Americans just happen to react more severely than others to gluten. The symptoms of gluten intolerance vary from person to person. Eating gluten has recently been discovered to contribute to such medical issues as irritable bowel syndrome, arthritis, acne, and depression, just to name a few. Another more serious reaction to the consumption of gluten is referred to as celiac disease. About 2 million people in the United States suffer from this disease. Celiac disease is an autoimmune digestive disease that interferes with the absorption of nutrients from food. This disease is serious as it can lead to a number of issues including neurological disorders, reduced bone density, and sometimes cancer. Eating in restaurants or in other peoples homes is challenging for people with celiac disease because knowing which foods contain gluten can be difficult. In general, people should educate themselves about the ingredients found in different foods, but people who are particularly sensitive to gluten have to be even more diligent. There are no pharmaceutical cures for gluten intolerance, so some people must manage their gluten intake by being aware and adhering to strict diets. While celiac disease is the most extreme case, eating a low or no gluten diet can indeed provide health benefits for many people. In fact, many Americans have found that abstaining from gluten has helped improve their lives.
