This indicator is an estimate of the amount of space on the earth that an individual uses in order to survive using existing technology. This space includes the biologically productive land and water area that produces the resources consumed by that individual such as food, water, energy, clothing, and building materials. It also includes the amount of land and water required to assimilate the wastes generated by that person. In other words, the ecological footprint measures a person's demand on the bio-capacity of the Earth.
Answer:
See the answer below.
Explanation:
The arrival of cacao beans in the factory can be likened to the transcription of mRNA using a DNA template.
Sorting of the best beans at the factory can be likened to splicing process. During splicing, the introns are removed from the newly synthesized mRNA and the exons are joined together. The introns represent the non-coding portion of the mRNA while the exons represent the coding sequence.
The checking of bags by quality control can be likened to the final proofreading of the mRNA after splicing before being transported to the cytoplasm where they are used to synthesize proteins.
The large truck that transports the cacao beans represent the transport proteins that transport the mRNA to the cytoplasm while the chocolate-producing company represents the ribosome which is the site of protein synthesis.
Answer:
c. 3, 5, 1, 4, 2
Explanation:
1. (3) food substance dissolves in saliva
2. (5) food substance enters taste pore and attaches to receptor on gustatory hair
3. (1) gustatory cell depolarizes
4. (4) neurotransmitter released by gustatory cell
5. (2) action potential stimulated in gustatory neurons
<em>Saliva has digestive functions that help food to be easily swallowed. We need saliva to taste foods because it dissolves the chemicals. The sense of taste is called gustation. We taste something with our tongue and then sensations would be carried via the facial (VII) cranial nerve. One of the newest taste to be described is umami. </em>

Answer:
The drum skin oscillates 20 times per second
Explanation:
The frequency of a note is dependent on the mechanical activities that occur when it is produced. A drum is beaten in this case. The oscillation of the drum skin transfers sound waves to the air particles which move at the same frequency before reaching our ears.
If the frequency of the sound wave is 20 Hz this means that the wave is oscillating 20 times in one second. For the drum to produce such a sound, the skin must have been oscillating at the same frequency of 20 oscillations per second too.
