In 2-3 sentences explain pollination.
Answer:
Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into the natural environment that cause adverse change. Pollution can take the form of chemical substances or energy, such as noise, heat, or light. (I'm sorry this is about Pollution, it should be about Pollination, I misread it sorry,)
Pollination:
Pollination is the act of transferring pollen grains from the male anther of a flower to the female stigma. The goal of every living organism, including plants, is to create offspring for the next generation. One of the ways that plants can produce offspring is by making seeds.
Do you think a virus should be considered a living thing? Why or why not?
Answer:
no
Explanation:
bc you can easily die from it if you have a disease or a condition. and you have newborns that are not immune into the world yet so they can get rlly sick from any virus.
Imagine that you are hiking and discover an outcrop of sedimentary rock. The rock is arranged in three distinct layers that appear to be undisturbed. When you examine the layers more closely, you observe fossils in the bottom and middle layers. What inferences can you make about these fossils based upon your observations and your knowledge of the law of superposition?
Answer:
The age of fossils are in millions.
Explanation:
These fossils were present on the earth millions of years ago due to different and unique structure of the fossil. The fossil is present in the bottom of the middle layer indicates that the more age of fossil i.e. millions of years according to the law of superposition. This law states that in an undisturbed layers of rocks, the top layer is the younger layer than middle and bottom layers which is older than the top layer, so we can say that fossils from deeper layers are older than fossils from the top layers of rocks.
Start a discussion on Homeostasis. List facts and opinions, then compare and contrast.
Answer:
- Homeostasis is the ability of living systems to maintain a steady and uniform internal environment to allow the normal functioning of the systems.
- It is the tendency to achieve equilibrium against various natural and environmental factors.
- Homeostasis results in a dynamic equilibrium, where continuous changes keep on taking place, and yet steady conditions are maintained.
- Homeostasis is mainly involved in managing various internal variables of the living system like body temperature, pH of various fluids, the concentration of different ions, and the body sugar level.
- A number of regulatory mechanisms are employed to resist changes in the body against environmental and bodily factors.
- Homeostasis can be maintained by separate organs or by the entire body at once.
Maintaining homeostasis/Homeostasis Mechanisms
Homeostasis is maintained by a complex system that consists of individual units working in a particular sequence to balance a given variable. All homeostasis mechanisms consist of four separate units, which are:
1. Stimulus
The stimulus is something that results in changes within the system involving the variable.
The stimulus represents that the variable has moved away from its normal range, initiating the process of homeostasis.
One example of this is the increased temperature of the body above 37°C due to various causes. The increased temperature indicates that the temperature of the body has gone higher than its higher range.
2. Sensor/ Receptor
The sensor or receptor is the sensing unit of homeostasis, where it monitors and responds to the changes in the body.
The changes in the system are realized by the sensor, which then sends the information to the control unit.
The nerve cells and receptors like thermoreceptors and mechanoreceptors are examples of sensor/ receptors.
3. Control unit
Once the information is sent to the control unit, it tallies the changed value to its normal value.
If the value is different from the normal value, the control center activates the effectors against the stimulus.
The thermoregulatory unit in the hypothalamus of the brain that controls the temperature of the body is an example of the control unit.
4. Effector
Effectors can be muscles, organs, glands, or other similar structures that are activated as a result of the signal from the control unit.
An effector is a target which is acted upon by the control unit to bring the value of variable back to normal.
The effector essentially counteracts the stimulus to nullify its effect.
In the case of thermoregulation, the sweat glands are effectors that are acted upon by the thermoregulatory unit to produce sweat so as to bring the value of body temperature back to its normal value.
In an article about saving the whales written by a marine biologist, which word might be used by the author to make you want to help with saving the whales?
Answer:
Endangered
Explanation:
Endangered species are organisms that are at risk of extinction if deliberate efforts are not made to conserve them due to a rapid decrease in their population.
Hence, if a marine biologist writes an article about saving whales and labels them as endangered species, all efforts should be geared towards saving the animals lest they go extinct and leave a vacuum in the functioning of the ecosystem. Every species have the critical roles they play in the functioning of the ecosystem and the extinction of any particular species represents a loss that might not be replaceable.

Property of water that makes transpiration to occur
Answer:
cohesion
Explanation:
One of water's most distinctive properties is cohesion—that is, the tendency of water molecules to "stick" to one another. In plants, this cohesion results in columns of water that stretch through the plant's xylem, from the roots all the way to the leaves.

__________ is a method of studying complex systems by reducing the components that are studied (e.g. studying cells in culture and using those results to understand what is going on in a complex disease).
Select one:
a.
emergent properties
b.
systems biology
c.
genomics
d.
reductionism
Answer: A.
Explanation: "An emergent property is a property which a collection or complex system has, but which the individual members do not have. In biology, for example, heart is made of heart cells, heart cells on their own don't have the property of pumping blood. You will need the whole heart to be able to pump blood."
Explanation for the incorrect answer:
"Systems biology is the computational and mathematical analysis and modeling of complex biological systems. It is a biology-based interdisciplinary field of study that focuses on complex interactions within biological systems, using a holistic approach to biological research. "

Answer:

Explanation:
Crossing over occurs at the ends of chromosomes, rather than near the centromeres. As a result of crossing over, sister chromatids are no longer identical to each other. For crossing over to occur, homologous chromosomes must align precisely early in prophase I so that nonsister chromatids can exchange corresponding segments of DNA. Crossing over prevents homologous chromosomes from separating during meiosis I.

how would an animals color help it survive? give an example
Answer:
A lion hides in the tall dunes and yellowish collored grass which makes in invisible to other animals nad helps it get prey and not get attacked by hyenas.
Explanation:
Answer:
An animal's color could help it survive by blending into its surroundings so it is less visible to predators and prey.
Example: A polar bear's fur is white, and all the snow in Antartica is also white. Therfeore, it is hard for predators to find the polar bear and for prey to escape because they don't see the polar bear.
