Describe how pollution can cause acid rain, and how acid rain affects the ecosystems of surrounding areas?

Answers

Pollution specifically air pollution can cause acid. Gases such as sulphur (IV) oxide and Nitrogen (IV) oxide when they are released into the atmosphere and comes into contact with precipitation, that is rain water causes acid rain. Sulphurous acid and Nitric acid is formed thus the rain falls in acidic form.

Acid rain when it falls on the leaves of the flora (plants) causes removal of the green colouring matter (chlorophyll) thus making plants to be deficient of food. Food in plants is made my the process of photosynthesis, removal of chlorophyll in plants kills them due to lack of food.

Also when acid rain finds it's way into the water bodies through surface runoff, aquatic animals such as fishes die due to lack of favourable environment and oxygen deficiency in water. Acidity in the soil also kills important decomposers therefore soil aeration is altered.

acid rain can affect the surrounding areas by ruining its ecosystem

A population of birds lives on a small island. Another population of the same species lives on the mainland. The
distance between the island and the mainland is too great for birds to fly back and forth. Recently, a series of
sandbars and tiny islands have formed between the island and the mainland.

Answers

Answer:

The birds can now reach the Island.

Explanation:

The birds can now reach the Island because there is a sandbars and tiny Islands where they can rest for sometime as well as feed on the insects present at that sandbars and tiny Islands. Before these sandbars and tiny islands, the birds can't reach to the mainland due to large distance between Island and mainland so they have no capability to fly such large distance until the tiny Island and sandbars are appeared in the ocean.

You are viewing an organ of the respiratory system and note the following tissues: folded mucosal layer containing simple cuboidal epithelium and smooth muscle, shifting into simple squamous epithelia. Identify the organ.

Answers

Answer:

Respiratory bronchiole  

Explanation:

The respiratory bronchioles represent the narrowest airways within the lung, being continuations of terminal bronchioles that have approx. 0.5 mm in size. The epithelium of the respiratory bronchiole is composed of cuboidal ciliated cells and a small number of non-ciliated (secretory) Clara cells. The respiratory bronchioles lead into alveolar ducts composed of smooth muscle and connective tissue (i.e., elastin and collagen), connecting the respiratory bronchioles to the alveolar sacs.

If the UV radiation to which her skin was exposed affected the Merkel cells, what other cell type sharing the same specific epidermal layer might also be affected

Answers

Answer:

Basal stem cells for keratinocytes

Explanation:

Keratinocytes are epidermal cells located in the outermost layer of the skin (i.e., the epidermis). Moreover, the cells located in the basal layer of the skin are known as basal keratinocytes or basal cells. These basal cells are proliferative cells that undergo differentiation in order to form suprabasal epidermal layers. Merkel cells are neuroendocrine cells that are located in the basal layer of the skin (scattered among basal keratinocytes), which are attached to surrounding keratinocytes by intercellular junctions called desmosomes.

Match each organelle with the main life function(s) it helps the cell perform. Each basic function of life can be used more
than once, and many organelles will have more than one possible answer. Choose one answer only,

Organelle list - nucleus, mitochondria, golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, lysosomes, vacuoles, cell membrane, chloroplast, cell wall


The answer could either be 1. reproduction 2. interaction with the environment 3. growth 4. uses energy 5. waste production (each function can be used more than once)

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is -

nucleus - reproduction, mitochondria- reproduction, golgi apparatus - waste production, endoplasmic reticulum - growth, ribosomes - growth, lysosomes- waste production, vacuoles - growth, cell membrane - interaction with the environment, chloroplast - uses energy, cell wall - interaction with the environment

Explanation:

A Cell has various organelles with more than one generic function such as the nucleus not just play role in cell reproduction but also plays role in regulating other organelle and cell growth by transcription. Mitochondria produces and provides energy for many functions such as growth, reproduction and substance transport.

Golgi apparatus package proteins and wastes to transfer them out of the cell. The ndoplasmic reticulum modifies the protein produced by ribosomes and helps in growth of the cell. Lysosomes digest waste and cell debris by lysosomal vesicles. Cell membrane and cell wall interact with outer environement.

The DNA of a prokaryote is arranged in a single coiled chromosome located in a region called the ____________ . Some prokaryotes carry genes on extrachromosomal pieces of circular DNA called ____________ .

Answers

Answer:

1. Nucleoid

2. Plasmid

Explanation:

Prokaryotes are groups of organisms characterized by the lack of a membrane-bound nucleus in their cell. Due to this, the genetic material (DNA) of prokaryotes are found naked i.e. not housed. The DNA of a prokaryote is arranged in a single coiled chromosome located in a region of the cell called NUCLEOID.

However, some prokaryotes e.g. bacteria carry genes on extrachromosomal pieces of circular DNA called PLASMID. Plasmids carry certain genes like antibiotic resistance genes.
