Correct answer: B). Easy to cultivate and fertile

The prairie is grassland soils that possess a dark colored surface and these soil are highly fertile in nature. These soils are rich in minerals like calcium and magnesium.

The dark color of soil comes from the added organic matter to the soil that comes from the roots of prairie plants. They are formed in the areas that are too dry to be forested, but too wet to be desert.

Hence, the correct answer would be option B.

A germ cell and zygote represents the biological level of organization. __________
kompoz [17]

Answer: Cell

Explanation:

The cell is the structural and functional unit of life. It is the the most basic level. A life starts from a single cell.

When a male and female gamete(germ cell) fuse together they form zygote. Firstly it is a single cell surviving inside the mother's womb.

Then differentiation takes place and the cell keeps on dividing to form different tissue layers and then organs form which makes a complete baby. Hence, zygote and germ cell are cellular level of organization.

Somatic cells of roundworms have four individual chromosomes per cell. How many chromosomes would you expect to find in an ovum
andrezito [222]

Answer:

2 chromosomes

Explanation:

The cell of an eukaryotic organism like roundworm contains the Nucleus, which harbors the genetic material embedded in the chromosome. The number of chromosomes of that organism is contained in each cell.

Somatic cells, also called body cells, are all other cells asides sperm and eggs, that form the tissues and organs of an organism. Somatic cells are usually diploid i.e two sets of chromosomes from each parent. In this question, the roundworm has 4 chromosomes in its somatic cell.

The reproductive cells or sex cells (sperm and eggs) of an organism always result from meiotic division of specialized cells.

Since meiosis is a kind of division that results in cells with their chromosome number reduced by half (haploid), it therefore means that the ovum and sperm cell will be expected to contain 2 chromosomes each.

This way, when fertilization occurs (sperm and egg fusion), the resulting zygote, which will eventually develop into an adult organism, will have 4 chromosomes.

Watch this video about kipunji monkeys in Africa. If you were a conservationist monitoring the populations of these monkeys, wha
bagirrra123 [75]

    I would choose to make sure the local people value the forest especially the kipunji monkeys. How I would do that is by convicing them that leaving the forest is more profitable than cutting it down for agriculture use by suggesting that tourists will pay to visit their land. Tourism would boost the economy and value of the land. The local people can make a big profit  and save their forest too.

1. Describe DDT and summarize the history of the use and banning of DDT, including actions taken by the U.S. government. State t
igomit [66]

DDT stands for  dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane. The first kind of synthetic/artificial insecticides came into use in the 1940s. The earlier usage of DDT include:  a) Killing of malarial vectors, b) Combatting Typhus and other insect borne human diseases, c) As a pest control in crops d) as a pest control in garden, live stock production and even at homes.  

The negative impact of DDT could be felt for the first time when the pests that were earlier killed by use of DDT have now become pesticides resistant. In the 1950s in USA, the regulatory measures were adopted to reduce the usage of DDTs as its effects as a pesticides were no more long significant and also it was creating detrimental physical and psychological impacts on the human and environment.

It was in 1972 that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency cancelled the order for banning the usage of DDT based on the adverse impact it produced on the environment, human and other life forms. Since then continuous studies are being conducted to analyse the impact of DDTs. In some later years it was established that DDT is the cause of producing tumors in liver.  

Some of the common negative impacts produced by DDT as per the U.S. Department of Agriculture :  

a) The non destructive nature – DDT can not be destroyed and thus it remains persistent in the atmosphere

b) It attacks the tissues of living organisms especially the animals and humans  ( fatty tissue)

c) It can penetrate the atmosphere to deeper extent.

Now as per the current stuation, The use of DDT is controlled and other alternatives of pest control organisms is being deduced. As per the treaty of Stockholm Convention on POPs (Persistent organic pollutants) , usage of DDT for malarial control is justified but it puts a restrictive use of DDT as pesticides in other areas.
