You are walking through a mixed evergreen-deciduous forest, where approximately 10 percent of the trees are eastern hemlocks, a species of evergreen tree that casts very deep shade on the forest understory. Interestingly, under every eastern hemlock, you find the same small herbaceous plant species. However, you never observe this species anywhere else, even though a healthy diversity of other species live throughout the forest understory. You expect the small herbaceous species to have _____ growth, _____ sexual maturity, _____ energy expended on seeds, and _____ reproduction. Please choose the correct answer from the following choices, and then select the submit answer button. Answer choices fast; early; high; no vegetative slow; late; low; vegetative slow; early; low; vegetative fast; early; low; vegetative slow; late; high; no vegetative

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: slow; late; low; vegetative

Explanation: Due to the casting of deep shade on the forest understory by eastern hemlock, direct sunlight and other necessities for photosynthesis and other life processes needed by the herbaceous plant species for optimum growth is being deprived.

However, coupled with the nature of these herbaceous plant species, having non-woody stems with their growth above the ground level often dieing off particularly in winter in the temperate zone, makes their growth in that kind of location to be stunted.

Thus, herbaceous plant species with slow growth rate leading to late sexual maturuty while having low expanded energy on seeds due to low photosynthetic rate and low vegetative reproduction should be expected.

What is the difference between a hepatic duct and a hepatic vein?​

Answers

Explanation:

The liver is connected to two large blood vessels, the hepatic artery and the portal vein. The hepatic artery carries blood from the aorta to the liver, whereas the portal vein carries blood containing the digested nutrients from the entire gastrointestinal tract, and also from the spleen and pancreas to the liver.

The hepatic veins carry oxygen-depleted blood from the liver to the inferior vena cava. They also transport blood that has been drained from the colon, pancreas, small intestine, and the stomach, and cleaned by the liver. These veins originate from the core vein of the liver lobule, but they do not have any valves.
The hepatic duck: A duct that carries bile from the liver into the common bile duct which conveys it to the duodenum (the upper part of the small intestine).

How do the process of DNA replication and the laws of inheritance help cells and individuals pass on their
traits?

Answers

DNA copying is otherwise known as DNA replication which is the process of producing 2 identical copies of DNA from one original DNA molecule during cell division. DNA copying is important because it generates variation during sexual reproduction which leads to evolution. Also, DNA copying helps in transfer of information or characters from the parents to the offsprings.

Mendel studied traits with only one mode of inheritance in pea plants. The inheritance of the traits he studied all followed the relatively simple pattern of dominant and recessive alleles for a single characteristic. There are several important modes of inheritance, discovered after Mendel’s work, that do not follow the dominant and recessive, single-gene model.

Answer:

Ladder

Explanation:

The structure of the double helix is often described as being like a ladder that has been twisted into a spiral shape. Therefore, option (B) is correct.

What is the structure of DNA?

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is a long, linear polymer that is made up of repeating units called nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of a sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogenous bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), or thymine (T). The sequence of these nitrogenous bases determines the genetic information encoded in DNA.

One of the most common models for the structure of DNA is the "double helix" model, which was proposed by James Watson and Francis Crick in 1953. This model depicts DNA as a double-stranded helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between the complementary nitrogenous bases A and T, and G and C. The two strands of the helix are antiparallel, meaning that they run in opposite directions. The structure of the double helix is often described as being like a ladder that has been twisted into a spiral shape.

D) DNA is less susceptible to mutation when it codes for amino acid sequences whose side groups (or R groups) have a neutral electrical charge.
E) a significant proportion of mutations are not acted upon by natural selection.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is E) a significant proportion of mutations are not acted upon by natural selection.

Explanation:

The neutral theory, proposed by Motoo Kimura in 1968, proposes that part of the molecular variability produced by mutations that exists in populations is natural variability, that is, a large part of the genetic variation observed in populations is due to random fluctuation of genetic variants that are neutral, on which natural selection hardly acts, so they are not an evolutionary force since they do not contribute predominantly to natural selection and proposes genetic drift as an evolutionary mechanism.

plz can anyone write an essay about water pollution about 1300 words

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The biological or chemical change in the quality of water due to the presence of contaminants in water is called water pollution. Most of this contamination as on date is due to various human activities. In fact, humans are responsible for the mass deaths of whales and other aquatic organisms often swept ashore at different beaches in the world. There is an urgent need to look into the measures to control water pollution although a lot many efforts and schemes have already been announced by the Government in this regard. To make the students aware of this we have prepared short and long essays for students which shall inform them about water pollution and the means to minimise it.

A plant is sprayed with atrazine.
Exposure to atrazine causes an immediate decrease in the production of two substances in plant. Select the substance.
A. DNA
B. Carbon dioxide
C. Oxygen
D. Phospholipids

Answers

Answer:

oxygen because that's one of the substance that plants produce.

You can also do this by the process of elimination. Knowing that atrazine impedes the production of substances in plants, we know that it can't be DNA and Phospholipid. Carbon Dioxide is used by plant, not produced; thus, oxygen is the answer.

A herbicide is a type of pesticide that is used for controlling the weeds so that the plants can get nourishment. They are common weed killers used to clear taw waste groups and constructional areas.  

These herbicides are used for different plants and prevents the chemical reaction that makes use of energy. The plants are sprayed with the chemical called atrazine which is used to decrease the production of oxygen.

WHAT HAPPENS TO OUR BODIES WHEN WE EXERCISE?

What is happening to her circulatory system?

When you exercise, or play football in this case, you are working your muscles and certain places in the body. When this happens, your muscles respire (burn the FOOD to produce ENERGY) more faster than they would normally, so the demand for OXYGEN and GLUCOSE is increased.

As the muscles are performing cellular RESPIRATION quicker than the norm, they need oxygen and glucose to reach them faster (glucose and oxygen are the components for cellular respiration), and also they need to get rid of their CO2 (products of cellular respiration are CARBON DIOXIDE and WATER) so the HEART is now pumping blood around the body at a faster rate in order to provide these cells with what they need. To summarize, the circulatory system has to work harder and faster during exercise to provide the cells at work with glucose and oxygen and to get rid of the waste carbon dioxide.

What is happening to her breathing system?

{Relates to explanation given} The requirement for oxygen is increased so now the respiratory system (in particular the LUNGS) have to work harder and faster to take in more oxygen and to exhale more CO2, thus you begin to breathe faster. To summarize, oxygen is inhaled quicker and carbon dioxide is exhaled quicker, therefore the rate of DIFFUSION is increased.
