Carbon footprint is the amount of CO2 a person emits, either directly or indirectly. For example, CO2 you exhale is part of your carbon footprint. But CO2 released in the process of making your clothes also counts toward your carbon footprint.

Hello, Crispy12monte.

A carbon footprint is the total amount of CO2 emitted by fossil fuels that someone consumes. Hope this helps!!

During a biology lab practical, students were required to identify a metal by its density. All the metals were painted green so
den301095 [7]

Answer:

C) Re-do the measurements, several times, and take the average density before making a decision.

Explanation:

For the correct identification of the metal, weather its nickel or copper, Carl should repeat the experiment several times and take the average density before making the decision. It is important because it reduces the chance of error and ensure the data integrity.  The more the sample size is, lessen would be the error.

5. The F2 generation of a cross between a parental tall and a parental short pea plant is 298 tall plants and 102 short plants.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The answer is XX.

Explanation:

Let us say that X is the dominant gene and x is the recessive gene for the height of the pea plants. Pea plants need to be homozygous or heterozygous  to have the short phenotype which means it needs to have the genotype xx or Xx.

The F2 offspring has a ratio of 74,5% tall plants and 25,5% short plants. For these results, the stem height pea plant needs to be homozygous which is an XX genotype for the tall pea plant.

I hope this answer helps.

How is frogs excretory system different then the human system
jeka57 [31]
Transcript of EXCRETORY SYSTEM OF THE FROG AND HUMANTHE URINARY SYSTEM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ELIMINATION OF WASTS VIA THE URINE. THE BASIC UNIT OF FUNCTION IS THE NEPHRON COMPOSED OF THE GLOMERULUS AND A SERIES OF TUBULES RESPONSIBLE FOR THE EXCRETION OF WASTES, REABSORPTION OF VALUABLE SUBSTANCES, AND FILTRATION OF BLOOD.
URINARY SYSTEM OF HUMAN
<span>EXCRETORY SYSTEM OF THE FROG AND HUMAN </span>
EACH KIDNEY CONTAINS UP TO 18 LOBULES AND THOSE 18 LOBES CONTAINS NEPHRONS ARE THE FUNCTIONAL UNIT OF THE KIDNEYS AND EACH KIDNEY CONTAINS MORE THAN 1 MILLION NEPHRONS. IN THE NEPHRONS COMPOSED OF GLOMERULUS FILTERS THE BLOOD LEAVING THE FILTRATE INSIDE THE GLOMERULAR SPACE. THE FILTRATE HAS SIMILAR CHARACTERISTICS TO PLASMA EPT IN THE PRESENCE OF PROTEINS IN THE FORM OF ALBUMIN. THE FILTRATE THEN GOES INTO THE PROXIMAL CONVOLUTED TUBULES WHERE MAJORITY OF THE SUBTANCES ARE REABSORBED.
KIDNEY
THE FLUID ENTERS THE DESCEDING LIMB OF HENLE WHERE IT IS IMPERMEABLE TO MINERALS AND OTHER SUBTANCES. THEREFORE, THE FLUID INSIDE THE TUBULES BECOMES HYPERTONIC COMPARED TO PLASMA. AS THE FLUID INSIDE GOES UP INTO THICK ASCENDING LIMB OF HENLE, WATER BECOMES IMPERMEABLE. THUS, IT IS ONE OF THE IMPORTANT DILUTING SEGMENTS OF THE URINARY SYSTEM. THERE IS ACTIVE TRANSPORT OF VARIOUS PHYSIOLOGICALLY IMPORTANT IONS SUCH AS POTASSIUM IONS, SODIUM IONS AND OTHERS.
URINARY SYSTEM OF THE FROG
EXCRETORY SYSTEM OF FEMALE FROG
EXCRETORY SYSTEM OF THE MALE FROG
LIQUID WASTE GENERATED BY THE KIDNEYS TRAVELS THROUGH THE MESONEPHRIC DUCT INTO E CLOACA. SOLID WASTE FROM THE LARGE INTESTINE PASSES INTO THE CLOACA. BOTH SOLID AND LIQUID WASTE MATERIALS LEAVE THE BODY THROUGH THE ANUS, THE ONLY OPENING FOUND IN THE POSTERIOR PART OF THE BODY.
THE FLUID THEN GOES INTO THE THIN ASCENDING LOOP OF HENLE AND INTO THE DISTAL CONVOLUTED TUBULE WHERE WATER AND SODIUM REABSORPTION IS EFFECTED BY ALDOSTERONE SECRETION BY THE ADRENAL CORTEX. THE FLUID THEN GOES IONTO COLLECTING TUBULES WHERE WATER REABSORPTION IS AFFECTED BY ADH.SOME REABSORPTION OF IMPORTANT IONS STILL OCCURS IN THESE FINAL SEGMENTS.
THE NEPRON
FINALLY, THE URINE DRAINS INTO THE MINOR AND MAJOR CALYX TO GO INTO THE RENAL PELVIS. FROM HERE IT IS DRAINED BY THE URETER TO BE TEMPORARILY STORED IN THE BLADDER WHERE PERIODIC EMPTYING OCCURS VIA THE URETHRA THROUGH THE PROCESS OF URINATION. THE URETHRA CONNECTS THE URINARY BLADDER TO THE GENITALS FOR THE REMOVAL OF URIE OUT OF THE BODY.
