noah created a model of a glacier to help explain how glaciers change the surface of Earth. He froze two large blocks of ice. On

e block was pure water. The pther was water mixed with sand and rocks. He took both blocks and rubbed them across a sheet of tinfoil. The block of pure water slid smoothly over the tinfoil. The block with sand and rocks ripped the tinfoil in many places. How does Noah's model explain how glaciers change Earths surface?

Answer: The model is depicting the glacier erosion.

Explanation:

The glaciers are responsible for causing erosion of the earth. They transport the materials away from the locations were they are earlier situated. They carve the materials present beneath the land. They erode the materials like soil, pebbles, boulders, against the pressure of the unstable mass of the ice moving down the slope. The broken ice mass carriers away the broken rocks, materials and soil debris far away from the places where they have been originally situated. This causes the glacial erosion. Also the broken and displaced rocks displace the soil and other materials come in contact with during erosion.

According to the given situation, the ice formed with water only had no impact on the tinfoil on the other hand the ice containing the sand and rocks removed the tinfoil from places. This is because of the friction created by the sand and rocks on the tinfoil. The glacier material like ice, soil, rocks due to friction erode the material come in contact with it with an appreciable pressure underneath.

B. Eggs are known to contain cholesterol, which is a lipid. Did your experiment results indicate a presence of lipids in the alb
Darya [45]

Answer:

According to the result recorded, there was no cholesterol in the albumin solution. This is probably because the cholesterol is in the egg yolk and not the egg white. In order to get a positive response on the presence of cholesterol in eggs, an egg yolk albumin stock needs to be prepared. So using the same procedure as before and only replacing the egg yolk for the egg white, prepare a 0.5 mL of egg yolk with 4.5 mL distilled water mixture in a test tube. Follow the steps given in the lab manual to check for presence of lipids in this albumin stock. Take a filter paper and add one drop of Sudan III solution onto it, let it dry and then place a drop of the stock prepared and analyze if the color transfer happens.

Enhancerless GFP reporter constructs used in research conducted in mice contain a generic mouse gene promoter (TATA box) followe
balandron [24]

Answer:

the reporter gene can randomly insert near to an enhancer sequence which can induce its expression

Explanation

Enhancers are genetic sequences capable of activating gene expression by binding to specific proteins (e.g., transcription factors). Enhancers can regulate the expression of nearby genes located thousands of nucleotides away, i.e., over several kilobases away. In the human genome, it is well known that enhancers are scattered across the 98% of the genome. In this case, it is expected that the reporter GFP gene construct is randomly inserted near an enhancer sequence (a 10% chance of insertion), thereby being regulated by that enhancer.

Describe the path of two parallel light beams in a positively curved universe
GREYUIT [131]

The Universe is defined to be the sum total of everything that we know about: stars, galaxies, clusters, superclusters, voids, etc.
Cosmology is the study of the structure and evolution of the Universe.
It is a subject of great current interest, as the Hubble Space Telescope and other new instruments have recently helped astronomers shed light on many important questions.
There have been many theories about the Universe, but they generally all share one fundamental postulate, the cosmological principle, which has two parts. First, the Universe must be isotropic (the same in every direction).
For example, the Hubble deep field images, extending 12 Gly away, for two completely different directions, are remarkably similar:
