Soil is a mixture of _______.a. solids
b. solids, liquids, and gases
c. solids and liquids
d. solids and gases

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: b. solids, liquids, and gases

Explanation:

A soil is a mixture of solids, liquids and gases. The solids are in the form of coarse to fine sediments which are added up to the soil by the weathering of the parent rocks. The liquids are in the form of water which adds up in the soil through the tiny pores by sources like river, rainfall, oceans and others. The gases such as carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen oxides diffuse into the soil through tiny pores these are essential for the growth of plants and soil microorganisms.  

Answer 2
Answer: Soil contains of minerals(solid), moisture(liquid), oxygen (gas), and many other components. So it is a mixture of b. solids, liquids, and gases

Answers

Tetracyclines are antibiotics used against a wide range of microorganisms, such as bacteria, chlamydia, rickettsia and some protozoa parasites.
They inhibit synthesis of protein in bacteria by inhibiting the binding of transport RNA and ribosome and are effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.

The answer is :they passed on their genetic material to new cells when they reproduced.
Explanation : Well when cells undergo division , they pass on their genetic material , so that's the same way that bacteria passed and still passes it's genetic material by the process of rep
roduction.
Hope this helps :)

Which of the following is an unsegmented worm with a pseudocoelom.A. sponge
B. cnidarian
C. arthropod
D. roundworm

Answers

Is not a sponge, cnidarian or arthropods . The pseudocoelom is specific to any invertebrates with three body layers. So, your answer is D - roundworm 

The correct answer is option D, Round worm

Roundworm belongs to the phylum  Nematodes and some common characteristics of Nematodes are – they are small, slender , un-segmented, smooth and shiny. Roundworm has   a round body just like a spiny –headed worm which do not have segments . Also they possess a body cavity known as pseudocoel in which the internal body organs lie and the body cavity is not lined with mesodermal cells.  

Briefly explain how gaseous exchange takes place in terrestrial plants.​

Answers

Answer:

Gaseous exchange, or respiration, is the process in which terrestrial plants take in oxygen from the air and release carbon dioxide. It involves a series of biochemical processes that take place within specialized cells embedded within the plant's leaves.

The first step of gaseous exchange in terrestrial plants is diffusion, where molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration. In this case, atmospheric oxygen diffuses into leaf cells through small openings on their surface called stomata. As these molecules enter the leaf cells, they are taken up by specialized photosynthetic organelles known as chloroplasts.

Chloroplasts then absorb energy from sunlight and use it to combine CO2 with water (H2O) to produce sugars and other organic compounds such as amino acids and lipids (photosynthesis). The resulting reaction produces chemical energy stored in the form of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate). This ATP drives various metabolic pathways that use oxygen as well as glucose for cellular respiration. During this process, some oxygen enters the cell while some carbon dioxide is released back out into the atmosphere through small openings on their surface called stoma – completing the cycle of gas exchange between terrestrial plants and their environment.

Explanation:

Answer:
In terrestrial plants, gaseous exchange takes place through tiny openings called stomata on the surface of leaves. These stomata allow for the exchange of gases such as carbon dioxide and oxygen with the surrounding atmosphere. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide enters the plant through the stomata, while oxygen produced during photosynthesis exits through the same openings. This process enables plants to obtain the necessary carbon dioxide for photosynthesis and release oxygen as a byproduct.

Genes are segments of a chromosome that are responsible for specific hereditary traits. Please select the best answer from the choices provided.a. True
b. False

Answers

True. Genes are part of chromosomes and they contain DNA. Inheritance of traits occurs when genes - discrete units that can be inherited - are passed along in reproduction, from parents to offspring. Alleles are variant forms of genes that give rise to differences between people.
