Read the excerpt from How Hurricanes Form.

Hurricanes are often compared to engines. Just like engines, they need a type of fuel. Hurricanes form over warm ocean waters near the equator. For hurricanes, their fuel is warm, moist air. When hurricanes form, the warm, moist air above the ocean rises upward from close to the surface of the water. Because the warm air rises, it results in less air under the surface of the water. This area with less air is known as an area with low pressure.

Air from areas surrounding this low pressure space pushes in to the area. This fills the low pressure area. The new air in this space becomes warm and moist and also rises. As the air continues to rise, the air surrounding the space swirls in to take its place. This process of air swirling in to replace air that has risen continues. Eventually, the moisture in the air forms clouds.

The wind and the clouds that form create a system. A system is a pattern of weather. The system of clouds and winds continues to spin and grow. The water evaporating from the ocean's warm surface acts as the fuel, which is what helps this spinning and growing. The system rotates faster and faster until the eye of the storm forms in the center area. Ironically, the eye of the storm is the calmest part, and it has very low air pressure. The higher pressure above the hurricane continually flows down into the eye.

Which combination correctly pairs a product from a reaction in the nitrogen cycle with a molecule synthesized by plants using that product

Answers

Answer:

(A) nitrates—proteins

Note: The question is not complete. The complete question is given below:

Which combination correctly pairs a product from a reaction in the nitrogen cycle with a molecule

synthesized by plants using that product?

(A) nitrates—proteins

(B) ammonia—carbohydrates

(C) nitrogenous wastes—nitrites

(D) atmospheric nitrogen—nitrates

(E) atmospheric nitrogen—ammonia

Explanation:

The nitrogen cycle refers to the cycle through which nitrogen is transferred for use through both living and non-living things, involving the atmosphere, soil, water, plants, animals and bacteria.

The nitrogen cycle is especially important for living things because nitrogen is essential for the formation of amino acids which form proteins.

The nitrogen cycle occurs in five stages:

1. Nitrogen fixation - Nitrogen gas from the air is converted to nitrate compounds by nitrogen-fixing bacteria in soil or root nodules. Lightning also converts nitrogen gas to nitrate compounds.

2. Nitrification - Ammonia is converted to nitrates by nitrifying bacteria in the soil.

3. Assimilation - Plants absorb nitrates from the soil and use them to make proteins. The plant is then eaten by an animal and are used to produce animal protein.

4. Ammonification- Decomposers break down the bodies of dead organisms, urine and faeces converting them to ammonia in the soil, which is then converted to nitrates by nitrifying bacteria.

5. Denitrification - Denitrifying bacteria in the soil break down nitrates and return nitrogen back to the air.

From the above stages and the options provided, the correct option is A - nitrates from the nitrogen cycle is converted to protein by plants.

In the human body, organ-systems interact with each other to maintain homeostasis. Using the diagram below, explain how this system interacts with another in the body to maintain homeostasis?

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Im pretty sure tell me if im right

Homeostasis is a regulating process of the body in response to external environments, digestive system provides glucose for cellular respiration.

How do organ systems interact to maintain homeostasis?

Organ systems in our body are regulated with each other and these interactions maintain homeostasis.

The respiratory system interacts with the circulatory system for gaseous exchange and the excretory system depends on the circulatory system for blood filtration, and the nervous system regulates the system through the brain.

Homeostasis is necessary because the external environment can change anytime, and the digestive system maintains food conditions according to the body's needs.

Therefore digestive system maintains homeostasis by providing glucose for cellular respiration.

Chain Pickerel is a freshwater fish that is a member of the pike family. Chain Pickerels are found along the Eastern coast of answers - The dissolved oxygen of the water decreases

The salinity of the water decreases

The amount of light penetrating the water increases

The temperature of the water increases in the summer
question - Florida all the way around to Texas. Sometimes called a "jack fish" or a "southern pike," pickerel feed mainly on smaller fish, ambushing them with sharp teeth. These fish are often found throughout the state of Florida in rivers, lakes and creeks. Spawning occurs in late winter to spring among heavy aquatic weed growth or flooded grasses, in water from a few inches deep to several feet deep. Large number of adhesive eggs are scattered over vegetation. Based on this information, which of the following scenarios would impact the population of Chain Pickerel and cause a decrease in the population size?

Answers

Answer:

the dissolved oxygen of the water decreases.

the fish need the oxygen for respiration, breathing through their gills.

Explanation:

The salinity decreasing doesn't affect the pickerel, because it's a freshwater fish. no salt needed.

more light penetrating the water just means that more aquatic weed or grasses would grow, giving the pickerel more area to spawn their eggs.

temperature increase in the summer has no affect on the fish, since the spawning happens in late winter.

Mutations are the ultimate source of genetic variation.

What did Darwin's theory state?

Charles Darwin gave the theory of evolution and natural selection in which the major points were variation, lineage, preference and duration.

According to his theory mutations are not the ultimate source of the genetic variations as natural selection and many other factors play roles in the variation and speciation.
