Soil erosion is a process where the top soil layer is washed away because of the effects of water or wind. An agricultural area

loses its topsoil because of excess flooding. What three actions can be taken to stop the erosion and conserve the fertility of the land?
Plant vegetation so that their roots hold the soil firmly.
Build walls around the farm area.
Add natural fertilizers to the soil.
Cut down tall, strong trees that stand in the middle of the farm.
Increase the plowing of soil and grazing in the farm area.

Answer: Plant vegetation so that their roots hold the soil firmly.

Build walls around the farm area.

Add natural fertilizers to the soil.

Soil erosion is a process of removal of top layer of soil which get sediment at some other place due to the affect of agents like wind and water. The superficial upper layers of soil are rich source of nutrients and organic matter and active region for germination of seeds and plant growth. Soil erosion removes these superficial layers making soil less fertile or not fertile and less useful for plant growth.

Plants growing in a vegetation have roots which can hold the soil and will prevent soil erosion from wind and water or any other agent. Building of walls around the farm area will prevent flood water to get inside the farm area and hence, prevents soil erosion by water. Addition of natural fertilizers to the soil adds up nutrients to the soil which facilitate plant growth and plant roots hold the soil therefore, prevents soil erosion.

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The electrical signal will not be converted into chemical signal.

Explanation:

The synaptic knob is the bulbous enlargement also called synaptic terminal preset at the end of the axon.

The synaptic knob is a living cell and thus contains all the living features but they also contain the vesicles which store the neurotransmitters, therefore, synaptic knob acts as a site which converts the electrical signal into a chemical signal. The released neurotransmitter from the synaptic knob interacts with the post neuron or recipient neuron.

If the mutation develops in the neurons which result in the formation of neurons without synaptic knob therefore the electrical signal will not be converted into a chemical signal and thus signal will stop.

According to catastrophists what was the rate of geological change?
givi [52]
Catastrophism is the theory that the Earth has largely been shaped by sudden, short-lived, violent events, possibly worldwide in scope.[1] This is in contrast to uniformitarianism (sometimes described as gradualism), in which slow incremental changes, such as erosion, created all the Earth's geological features. The proponents of uniformitarianism held that the present was the key to the past, and that all geological processes (such as erosion) throughout the past were like those that can be observed now. Since the early disputes, a more inclusive and integrated view of geologic events has developed, in which the scientific consensus accepts that there were some catastrophic events in the geologic past, but these were explicable as extreme examples of natural processes which can occur.

The large size of the daughter oocyte after meiosis II results from the uneven distribution of the cytoplasm, which allows the z
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Oogenesis includes the formation of one egg cell from a single oocyte or egg mother cell. The diploid primary oocytes in the ovaries enter into the first meiotic division and form a haploid secondary oocyte and a haploid first polar body. After fertilization, the secondary oocytes complete the meiosis-II and forms one large ovum and a second polar body. The ovum formed by meiosis-II is much larger than the second polar body due to the unequal distribution of cytoplasm during meiosis-II. This imparts enough amount of cytoplasm in the zygote to support the mitosis without any cell growth.

In general, a signal transmitted via phosphorylation of a series of proteins A) brings a conformational change to each protein.
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) requires phosphorylase activity.

Explanation:

Signals transmitted with the use of phosphorylation requires the presence and activity of an enzyme phosphorylase (also called Kinase) that can add phosphorus groups to proteins or other molecules in order for them to become messengers in the signaling pathway.

A student draws a fence with several gate as part of a model of cellular transport explain what defence indicates represent blam
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The given question says that a student has constructed a model of cellular transport using fences and several gates.  

This model can be used to demonstrate the cellular transport.

The gates of the fences can be supposed as the protein pumps and the other fence demonstrates the lipid bilayer.  

Let’s suppose in the fence, there are many cattles, and outside, there are less cattles, but the student open the gate and bring more cattles inside the fence. In this case, the transport of the cattles is similar to the active transport of the molecules using protein pumps. At cellular level, the energy for the active transport is provided by ATP molecules.

Now, let’s say, the student wants to feed the cattles with some nutrition rich food, which can help in maintaining the health of the cattles. The student fills his car with the cattle food and he enters inside the fence through gates. In this case, the food was not present in the fence, but was abundant in the outside environment, so, the diffusion would occur. But food cannot come self, without help of others, so, the movement is facilitated by the car, as it is done by the carrier proteins. Hence, it is an example of facilitated diffusion.
