A marine scientist collected data regarding the height of the tide at Clearwater Beach over the course of a week. The data is sh

own below. She concludes that there are two periods of high tide each day. Is she correct? Explain why or why not.
Graph depicting the tidal height from January 17-25 at Clearwater Beach, FL. The X axis depicts the time of day and the Y axis depicts the tidal height in meters from 0.0 meters to 1.0 meters. January 18 shows a tide height of .4 meters at 7:38 am, a tide height of .25meters at 12:09 pm, and a tide height of .7 meters at 6:39 pm. January 19 shows a tide height of less than a meter at 2:11 am, .4 meters at 9:24 am, a tide height of .25 meters at 1:25 pm, and a tide height of .71 meters at 7:40 pm. January 20 shows a tide height of less than a meter at 3:10 am, a tide height of .5 meters at 10:29 am, a tide height of .25 meters at 2:32 pm, and a tide height of .75 meters at 8:37 pm. January 21 shows a tide height of less than a meter at 4:01am, a tide height of .76 meters at 11:13 am, a tide height of .25 meters at 3:27 pm, and a tide height of .77 meters at 9:28 pm. January 22 shows a tide height of less than a meter at 4:44 am, a tide height of .5 meters at 11:47 am, a tide height of .24 meters at 4:14 pm, and a tide hight of .8 meters at 10:14 pm. January 23 shows a tide height of less than a meter at 5.24 am, a tide height of .5 meters at 12:14 pm, a tide height of .4 meters at 4:55 pm, and a tide height of .77 meters at 10:55 pm. January 24 shows a tide height of less than a meter at 6:01 am, a tide height of .5 meters at 12:38 pm, a tide height of.3 meters at 5:34 pm, and a tide height of .77 meters at 11:33 pm. January 25 shows a tide height of less than a meter at 6:34 am, a tide height of .5 meters at 12:59 pm, and a tide height of .15 meters at 6:12 pm.

Yes; the tide always reaches a high point twice per 24 hour period.
Yes; the tide always peaks twice per night.
No; the height of the tide changes from day to day.
No; the tide is only high every other day.

Answer:

No; low tide advances by 40 to 60 minutes each day.

Explanation:

When reading the table you can see that the times for low tide are not consistent and eventually become early morning.

Why are the cells of the alveoli so flattened?
Advocard [28]

Gas exchange occurs in the alveoli of the lungs and each is made from a single layer of flat cells, Many alveoli in the lungs, so a large surface area for exchangement of C02 and O2. They are surrounded by a network of capillaries and oxygen diffuses out of them via the alveolar epithelium to the hemoglobin.

Which of the following statements about levels of biodiversity is correct?A. Genetic biodiversity is a measure of the total numb
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

D. A population with high genetic biodiversity is better able to respond to environmental stressors.

Explanation:

The genetic biodiversity of a species is the diversity of alleles that it possesses in its genetic pool. For a given gene, a population can have one or more alleles; and the more alleles the population has, it will be more diverse. Under normal conditions (without stress), the alleles that are present in high frequency in a population,  are those that best respond to the environment where the population occurs. However, if some environmental condition changes and some type of environmental stress emerge (ie drought), it is possible that these alleles no longer respond equally effectively and then, it is possible that the  alleles that on normal conditions occur with low frequency, are more adequate to face the stress. A population with fewer alleles (less genetic diversity) has terefore fewer options to deal with environmental stressors and<u> a population with high genetic biodiversity</u> will do this better.

Robert Koch is best known for which of the following contributions?
algol13

Robert Koch is best known for establishing a link between bacteria and disease.

Robert Koch was a German doctor that made an important contribution to the field of microbiology and public health. During his experiments he identified the particular microorganisms that cause diseases such as tuberculosis, cholera, and anthrax. Koch’s research resulted to the development of Koch's postulates, which are four general principles that links specific microorganisms (such as bacteria) to specific diseases and is being used today in medical microbiology as a standard.

Based on the DNA strand below, and assuming the promoter for this gene is located to the le\, which protein sequence below does
Art [367]
<h2>Protein sequence</h2>

Explanation:

  • The given sequence is of coding strand(5'-3' direction)

5’-ATGTTGAAAATGCCGTAGAGGC-3’  

  • Protein is made up of mRNA and mRNA has the same sequence as coding strand(only T is replaced by U) so the sequence of mRNA will be:

5’-AUGUUGAAAAUGCCGUAGAGGC-3’

According to the genetic code,3 bases code for one nucleotide and further nucleotide codes for amino acid,amino acids forms the base for protein

  • AUG codes for Methionine(Met)
  • UUG codes for Leucine(Leu)
  • AAA codes for Lysine(Lys)
  • AUG codes for Methionine(Met)
  • CCG codes for Proline(Pro)
  • UAG codes for stop codon(Stop)

Once the stop codon comes protein synthesis will be stopped,so the final protein sequence will be:

Met-Leu-Lys-Met-Pro-Stop

The ________ is the site where lipids, triglycerides, and steroids are synthesized, as well as where calcium is stored within th
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Explanation:

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum differs from the rough endoplasmic reticulum in not having ribosomes on its surface. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) extends from the rough ER and forms a network of membrane tubules. The function of the smooth ER is to serve as a site for the synthesis of lipids, fatty acids, and steroids such as estrogens and testosterone.

Enzymes for the synthesis of these diverse biomolecules are present in smooth ER. The smooth ER present in the muscle cells is called the sarcoplasmic reticulum. It stores the calcium ions which are released into the sarcoplasm of muscle cells during muscle contraction.
