These weeds are growing in a farmer's field. The weeds compete with the soybean plants the farmer grows, so he needs to get rid of them. For a few years, the former relies on manually removing the woods, but that is labor intensive and limits how much crop he can grow. The farmer decided to change his crop to genetically modified soybeans that are herbicide resistant. This allows the farmer to use chemicals to remove the weeds. With this GM soybean, the chemical kills the woods but does not harm the crop. For many years this works, and allows the farmer to expand his farm and grow more soybeans. But then, one of the farmer's fields has a large weed plant remaining after the field has been sprayed with herbicide
1. Which of the following is the likely reason the weed has remained?
a. The weed needed to be resistant in order to survive, so it became resistant
b. A mutation appeared in one weed plant that made that weed not susceptible to the herbicide
2. Which of the following is likely to happen if that weed stays in place?
a. The trait will spread to nearby weeds
b. The weed will survive long enough to reproduce
c. In time, the herbicide will no longer be effective on that field.
Answer:
1) A mutation appeared in one weed plant that made that weed not susceptible to the herbicide ( B )
2) The weed will survive long enough to reproduce ( B )
Explanation:
1) The most likely reason the weed remained is : A mutation appeared in one weed plant that made that weed not susceptible to the herbicide
The weed plant must have undergone some mutation in order to be resistant to the herbicide which would kill the weed before now
2) The most likely thing that will happen if the weed stays in place in that farm is : The weed will survive long enough to reproduce
The trait or mutation of the weed cannot just spread to other weeds nearby it can only spread by reproducing more weeds of same mutation
Oxygen molecules are sixteen times as massive as hydrogen molecules.

Answer: hydrogen molecules.
Explanation: in same temperature molecules have same average kinetic energy.
You can estimate it solving E = 3/2 kT = 1/2 mv². Constant k is Boltzmann constant.

The table below shows the average distances of four planets from the sun.
Considering Kepler's Laws, which planet has the fastest average orbital speed?
A. Venus
B. Neptune
C. Saturn
D. Jupiter
Answer:
Venus
Explanation:
The closer a planet is to the Sun the faster it moves because the Sun can exert more gravitational force on it. Venus is the second closest planet to the Sun therefore the fastest out of the options.
Its Venus.
It is closer to the sun than the other planets on here.

The ability to taste PTC comes from the presence of a dominant allele (T). A population of 20 individuals was surveyed to determine whether or not they could taste PTC. Sixteen out of the twenty surveyed could taste PTC. Four could not taste PTC. Assume that Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium conditions are met in the population. Round all answers properly to 2 decimal digits. Rounding rules: When rounding to 2 decimal digits, look at the third decimal digit. If the third digit is 5 or greater, round up. If the third digit is less than 5, round down.

What is a genotype?
A genotype is someone's collection of genes. The word also can guide the two alleles inherited for a respective gene.
The genotype is defined when the information encoded in the genes' DNA is used to make protein and RNA molecules.

Human caused reductions of biodiversity, include pollution, invasive species, and overexploitation.
O True
O False
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Development, together with globalization, drove severe changes at a global level. The natural and original environments suffered from these effects and still are.
Human beings have constantly been altering the natural ecosystems and causing irreparable damages to nature. For many decades, development involved society and technology advance over new areas unpopulated by humans.
Some of the principal human activities responsible for biodiversity loss are
the uncontrolled use of unrenewable resources, overexploitation of renewable resources; land destruction for the mining industry, farming and cattle industry, buildings, and other infrastructures; the unplanned advance of cities, and opening of new roads to connect those cities.All of them involving
deforestation and fragmentation of natural landscapes; water, air, and soil pollution, species loss, and reduction of biodiversity.With globalization, transport around the world became normal. And when traveling around the world, new species are intentionally or unintentionally transported too. When these species, of animal or vegetable origin, get established in a new area, they overgrow to the point of turning invasive.
Invasive species are uncontrollable and cause severe damage in native endemic species by competing for resources. The whole ecosystem structure changes.
But there are some background glitches in the system that are the principal responsible for all the mentioned activities. Some important aspects are lacking
The respect for nature, People´s education at different levels to care and protect wildlife, Interest in keeping ancestral knowledge, Planning and previous environmental impact studies, Policies to control human activities, Caring involved government.If, as a society, we lack these aspects, the possibilities of changing our impact on nature are far away.

What happens if the mass of the elements is greater compared to smaller ?
Hello. More information is needed to answer your question accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way
If you are referring to what happens if the mass of an atom is greater compared to an atomic number, we can say that there is nothing too much, since it is normal for the atoms to have a mass slightly greater than the atomic number. The mass of an atom can never be less than the number of protons added to the number of neutrons. An atom with greater mass has a greater number of electrons and neutrons in relation to an atom of less mass and it is likely that the atom of less mass will donate or share electron with the atom of greater mass so that both reach the electric balance.

What cell parts are common to all of these cells?
Use complete sentences.
Chlamydomonas
Spirogyra
Elodea
Squamous Epithelium
Answer: All cells share four common components: (1) a plasma membrane, an outer covering that separates the cell's interior from its surrounding environment; (2) cytoplasm, consisting of a jelly-like region within the cell in which other cellular components are found; (3) DNA, the genetic material of the cell; and (4). The cells of most Chlamydomonas species are more or less oval and feature a noncellulosic membrane (theca), a stigma (eyespot), and a usually cup-shaped chloroplast. Although photosynthesis occurs, nutrients also may be absorbed through the cell surface. Asexual reproduction is by zoospores. The filamentous masses come to the surface and become visible as slimy green mats. Spirogyra has a cell wall, nucleus, pyrenoid and spiral chloroplasts. This Elodea leaf cell exemplifies a typical plant cell. It has a nucleus, and a stiff cell wall which gives the cell its box-like shape. The numerous green chloroplasts allow the cell to make its own food (by photosynthesis). The central vacuole takes up most of the volume of the cell. Squamous cells tend to have horizontally flattened, nearly oval-shaped nuclei because of the thin, flattened form of the cell. Squamous epithelium is found lining surfaces such as skin or alveoli in the lung, enabling simple passive diffusion as also found in the alveolar epithelium in the lungs. brainliest?
