The Grand Canyon of Arizona is one of world’s largest and steepest canyons. It ranges up to 277 miles long and 18 miles wide. Its formation is carved due to the erosive power of the water’s current.  As heavy rains continue to occur, more rocks and stones erode and fall which adds length and width to the Grand Canyon.

A unicellular organism that produces glucose through photosynthesis would most likely contain which structure
kap26 [50]
<span>Bacteria are tiny. A typical bacterial cell is just a few micrometres across (a few thousandths of a millimetre). The structure of a bacterial cell is different to an animal or plant cell. For example, they do not have a nucleus but they may have a flagellum. This is a tail-like part of the cell that can spin, moving the cell along.A unicellular organism is a living thing that is just one cell. There are different types of unicellular organism, including: bacteria protozoa unicellular fungi You might be tempted to think that these organisms are very simple, but in fact they can be very complex. They have adaptations that make them very well suited for life in their environment.Protozoa are unicellular organisms that live in water or in damp places. The amoeba is an example of one. Although it is just one cell, it has adaptations that let it behave a bit like an animal: it produces pseudopodia (false feet) that let it move about its pseudopodia can surround food and take it inside the cell contractile vacuoles appear inside the cell, then merge with the surface to remove waste

You may be familiar with fungi from seeing mushrooms and toadstools. Yeast are unicellular fungi. They are used by brewers and wine-makers because they convert sugar into alcohol, and by bakers because they can produce carbon dioxide to make bread to rise. Yeast have a cell wall, like plant cells, but no chloroplasts. This means they have to absorb sugars for their nutrition, rather than being able to make their own food by photosynthesis Yeast can reproduce by producing a bud. The bud grows until it is large enough to split from the parent cell as a new yeast cell.</span>

Why is milk used as a first-aid remedy for someone who has swallowed a heavy-metal poison?
klio [65]
Human trials have indicated an inverse relationship between blood lead level and calcium intake. While milk isn’t an antidote to let’s say, lead poisoning, the dietary calcium inhibits the lead absorption. This sort of poisoning is incredibly dangerous to the systems of the human body, and the ingredients within the milk help to defend against it. The purpose of the milk is to dilute the ingested poison.

To make new cells, humans undergo a process of cell division called mitosis. Before a cell goes through cell division (mitosis),
sashaice [31]

Before a cell goes through cell division (mitosis), it must grow and make a copy of its DNA which is termed as an Inter-phase.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Some tasks must be carried out by the cells before they undergo division: The cell must grow, it must copy the genetic material (DNA) present in it, and  divide into two daughter cells. These steps carried out by cells are termed as  cell cycle.

Cells that contains a nucleus or Eukaryota cells, there are two major phases called interphase and the mitotic (M) phase. that comprises the cell cycle.

In  inter-phase, growth of the cell and making a copy of its DNA is carried out.

In mitotic (M) phase, the cell separation of the DNA in the cell into two sets and division of its cytoplasm takes place resulting in the formation of two new cells.

Sweet yellow tomatoes with a pear shape bring a high price per basket to growers. Pear shape, yellow color, and terminal flower
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer and Explanation: The farmer has a pure-breeding line of tomato means the farmer has a tomato with genotype FFrrtt while the other line of tomato has genotype ffRRTT.

The cross between these lines gives a F1 generation of heterozygous full, red and axial or FfRrTt.

With an individual of F1 crosses with another individual of F1, the Punnet Square will be:

FfRrTt x FfRrTt

1) Dividing each characteristics, for simplicity:

          F         f

F       FF       Ff

f        Ff        ff

          R       r

R       RR     Rr

r        Rr      rr

         T      t

T       TT   Tt

t        Tt     tt

Analysing Punnett squares, we notice the line wanted (ffrrTT) will be produced, when an individual of F1 generation cross with another individual with the same generation.
