As a conservationist, what are your top three concerns regarding the hydroelectric dam and the biodiversity of the region?
Answer:
I’m concerned about how the dam will affect the water flow in the river, which can affect the behaviors of fish. I’m also concerned that some fish and aquatic animals might get sucked into the dam. Finally, I worry that the dam could malfunction and cause flooding, which could damage the ecosystem.
Explanation:
Top three concerns regarding the hydroelectric dam and the biodiversity of the region
Hydropower can also cause environmental and social problems. Reservoirs drastically change the landscape and rivers they are built on. Dams and reservoirs can reduce river flows, raise water temperature, degrade water quality and cause sediment to build up. This has negative impacts on fish, birds and other wildlife.
How do hydroelectric power plants affect the environment?Hydroelectric plants alter the natural habitats of freshwater species in the areas they are located. It changes the concentration of nutrients, water temperature, and the river's flow. Downstream river flow suffers a loss of water and silt loads, reducing water quality.

Given the following evidence; which does not support the theory of Continental Drift? A) climate
B) fossils of plants and animals
C) magnetic strips in the ocean floor
D) land features match up (like mountains) on different continents
The theory of Continental Drift does not shows evidence about climate. Thus option A is correct.
What is continental drift?Continental drift is defined as the idea that the positions of Earth's continents have changed over geologic time, giving the impression that they have "drifted" across the ocean floor.
It can also be defined as the continents moving horizontally at a huge scale in relation to one another and the ocean basins throughout the course of one or more geologic epochs.
The theory of plate tectonics, which integrates this idea, had this idea as a key antecedent.
The fit of the continents, the distribution of prehistoric fossils, rocks, and mountain ranges, as well as the placements of prehistoric climatic zones, were all used as evidence for continental drift.
Thus, the theory of Continental Drift does not shows evidence about climate. Thus option A is correct.

Which feature contains genetic material and is present in a eukaryotic cell but not in a prokaryotic cell?
Which two features are present in a plant cell but not in an animal cell? ************someone HELP PLEASE***********
Answer:
A DNA is contained in the NUCLEUS of a eukaryotic cell not a prokaryotic cell. Your awnser is " nucleus"
Explanation:
The feature that contains genetic material and is present in a eukaryotic cell but not in a prokaryotic cell is the nucleus. The two features that are present in a plant cell but not in an animal cell are the cell wall and chloroplasts.
1. Eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound organelle called the nucleus that contains the DNA of the cell. It is in charge of conserving and safeguarding the genetic material, including the chromosomes that contain the genes that govern the properties and operations of the cell.
On the other hand, prokaryotic cells are devoid of a genuine nucleus. The cytoplasm of these cells contains their genetic material, which is normally one circular DNA molecule.
2. Cell Wall: The cell membrane of plant cells is enclosed by a strong cell wall. The plant cell is protected and supported structurally by the cell wall. Together with other polysaccharides, proteins, and cellulose, a complex carbohydrate, it essentially consists of these elements. Animal cells lack a cell wall and are supported instead by extracellular matrix and other structural elements.
Chloroplasts: The chloroplasts found in plant cells are in charge of photosynthesis. Specialized organelles called chloroplasts house the pigment chlorophyll as well as other pigments that are used to absorb light energy.
They do this by converting light energy into chemical energy, releasing oxygen as a byproduct and creating glucose. As animal cells lack chloroplasts, they are unable to perform photosynthesis.

can someone write me a small introduction about reflexes
reflex is an involuntary or automatic, action that your body does in response to something — without you even having to think about it
reflex action often involves a very simple nervous pathway called a reflex arc. A reflex arc starts off with receptors being excited. They then send signals along a sensory neuron to your spinal cord, where the signals are passed on to a motor neuron
A large population of fish live in a lake. The color of their scales is determined by two different alleles of the autosomal S gene, S1 and S2. Homozygous S1S1 fish have yellow scales, S2S2 homozygotes have blue scales, and S1S2 heterozygotes are green. Scientists caught 100 fish at random and recorded their color. Among those 100 fish were 30 yellow, 50 blue, and 20 green ones. After the original sample was analyzed, an asteroid landed in the lake and killed all the fish that happened to be in one particular location. When 100 fish were sampled again, 15 were yellow, 75 were blue, and 10 were green. Was the fish population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibirim (HWE) before the asteroid hit? In an ideal population, how many generations would it take to establish HWE after the asteroid hit?
Answer:
Yes it was
two generations
Explanation:
H0: population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
Ha: population is not in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
P(S1) = (2×obs(S1S1) + obs(S1S2))/(2×fish(S1S1)+2×fish(S1S2) +2×fish(S2S2) )
P(S1)= (60+50)/(60+100+40)
P(S1)=0.55
P(S2)= 1-P(S1)
P(S2)= 0.45
Exp(S1S1)= 0.55×0.55×100=30.25
Exp(S1S2)= 2×0.45×0.55×100=49.5
Exp(S2S2)= 0.45×0.45×100=20.25
x²=∑ (Observed-Expected)²/ Expected
= (30-30.25)²/30.25 + (50-49.5)²/49.5+ (20-20.25)²/20.25
= 0.010203
The value at 5% significance level and degree of freedom 1 from table is 3.84. Since x² value is less than value we accept null hypothesis
It takes two generations to achieve Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium if conditions of Hardy-Weinberg are met.

Reptiles are a class of vertebrates made up mostly of snakes, turtles, lizards, and crocodilians. The options (A), (B) and (E) are correct.
What are the characteristics of reptiles?Reptiles, as most commonly defined are the animals in the class Reptilia, a paraphyletic grouping comprising all sauropsids except birds. Living reptiles comprise turtles, crocodilians, squamates and rhynchocephalians.
Moreover, the major groups of living reptiles—the turtles (order Testudines), tuatara (order Rhynchocephalia [Sphenodontida]), lizards and snakes (order Squamata), and crocodiles (order Crocodylia, or Crocodilia)—account for over 8,700 species.
Therefore, the name "reptile" comes from Latin and means "one who creeps". All living reptile species are cold blooded, have scaly skin, and lay cleidoic eggs. They excrete uric acid (instead of urea), and have a cloaca. A cloaca is a shared opening for the anus, urinary tract and reproductive ducts.

e. The cell expends energy to transport materials into the cytosol.
Answer:
The correct answer is:
The cell membrane engulfs a particle in the cytoplasm and forms a vesicle around it. (d.)
Explanation:
Endocytosis is a type of active transport, where particles such as (large molecules, parts of cells, and even whole cells) are moved into cells.
The various types of endocytosis has a common feature of:
1. invagination of plasma membrane forming pockets around the target particle.
2. the pocket pinches off from original plasma membrane
3. forming a new intracellular vesicle containing the target particle.
The different types of endocytosis includes
a. pinocytosis (cell drinking): takes in extracellular fluids
b. phagocytosis (cell eating): large solid particles are taken in by cells
c. receptor-mediated endocytosis: here, receptor proteins on the cells surface, binds to complementary proteins on the surface of the target particles before endocytosis occurs.

Anaerobic respiration happens in muscle cells and yeast cells.
The equation describes anaerobic respiration in muscle cells.
glucose ---> lactic acid
How can you tell from the equation that this process is anaerobic?
would the answer just be no co2 is produced?
Answer:
Am I think Co 2 will not be released but rather Glucose will be released
Explanation:
This is because
C6H12O6>2C5H5OH+2Co2 + Energy
there fore glucose is produced
From the equation "glucose → lactic acid," we can infer that the process is anaerobic. One way to determine this is by the absence of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the equation.
Glucose is entirely oxidized to create carbon dioxide, water, and energy during aerobic respiration, which takes place in the presence of oxygen.
Yet, in anaerobic respiration, the lack of oxygen causes an incomplete breakdown of glucose, producing additional byproducts such lactic acid as a result.
Muscle cells have the ability to transition to anaerobic respiration in order to satisfy their energy needs when there is insufficient oxygen.
Muscle cells have the ability to engage in anaerobic respiration, which produces ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the cellular energy currency, by partly metabolizing glucose, during hard exercise or when oxygen supply is constrained.
During anaerobic respiration, lactic acid builds up in muscle cells, which can lead to exhaustion and pain.

Identify the remaining processes and components of the carbon cycle. organisms release CO2 atmospheric CO2 plants use CO2 combustion fossil fuels form
Answer:
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an important component in atmosphere and Carbon cycles allows movement of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into living things and from living things to atmosphere again.
There are four main processes included in carbon cycle that is photosynthesis, decomposition, respiration and combustion.
In respiration, living organism such as animals and humans intake oxygen and releases CO2 in atmosphere.
In the process of photosynthesis, plants take CO2 from atmosphere and convert it into oxygen (O2) in the presence of sunlight and water.
In Decompoition, the bacteria present in soil decomposes dead matter by breaking down into simpler organic or inorganic matter such as water, carbon dioxide, and mineral salt. The nutrient cycle then recycle the carbon dioxide and send back to teh atmosphere.
In combustion, the burning of fossil fuel in cars and industries releases carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere.
So, the components of carbon cycel include atmosphere, terrestial biosphere, ocean ( dissolved inorganic carbon), and sediments ( fossil fuels).
