Which of the following is not a possible consequence of surface mining?
aleksklad [387]

Answer;

B. improved ecosystem health

Explanation;

-Surface mining is a method of extracting minerals near the surface of the Earth. The three most common types of surface mining are open-pit mining, strip mining, and quarrying.

-The environmental impact of mining includes erosion, formation of sinkholes, loss of biodiversity, and contamination of soil, groundwater, and surface water by chemicals from mining processes.The environmental effects of surface mining include;

  • Habitat destruction
  • Soil erosion
  • Air pollution from dust particulates
  • Pollution (especially from sediments)
  • All surface mining techniques negatively affect the environment, though some methods are more damaging than others.

1. You are studying an integral membrane protein of the plasma membrane. It has a single transmembrane domain and the N-terminal
Drupady [299]

Answer:

A 22 to 25 amino acid sequence present in the central section of the protein, which gives rise to an alpha helix in the membrane is known as the stop-transfer anchor sequence. The sequence plays an essential function in targeting the protein towards the plasma membrane. On the other hand, it also ceases targeting of the protein towards the endoplasmic reticulum, which was started by the signal peptide.  

Thus, the process of translation of the remaining of the protein occurs within the cytosol due to the tethering of the transmembrane domain. In the stop-transfer anchor sequence, the hydrophobic amino acids present are isoleucine and valine. After mutation, these amino acids get converted into arginine and lysine, thus, hydrophilic amino acids replace hydrophobic amino acids in the sequence.  

Due to this, the transmembrane domain cannot be targeted towards an integral part of the plasma membrane by the short transfer anchor sequence, and therefore, now the translocation of the protein will take place towards the endoplasmic reticulum as initiated by the signal peptide at the beginning.

Softa [21]
Many poisonous and toxic animals are brightly coloured, and other animals and predators are instinctively wary of brightly coloured animals. This is called warning colouration or aposematism. Described more scientifically, these colouration adaptations are to deter predators by using a warning signal,<span> which indicates that consuming the prey item would be unprofitable</span>. Nudibranchs back up this warning by secreting poisons that would be toxic or foul-tasting to predators. Nudibranchs have developed this strategy probably because it has a lower energy cost compared to developing a protective shell.

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

The test tube that first stops in bubbling or the production of a gas is the tube that contains the catalyst since the reaction ended faster than the others. A catalyst is known to speed up a reaction so it must the situation aforementioned is the answer.
