What process is involved in over irrigation that results in the reduction of soil fertility? a) water penetrates the deep soil layers and dissolves the salt present there. b) salt accumulates near the surface of the soil. c) salt is drawn towards the surface with the water through evaporation. d) all of the above.

If scientists are wrong about earth's age based on radioactive material and the decay rates are really much faster, how would nuclear power plants be affected?

The dna in a cell’s nucleus encodes proteins that are eventually targeted to every membrane and compartment in the cell, as well as proteins that are targeted for secretion from the cell. for example, consider these two proteins: phosphofructokinase (pfk) is an enzyme that functions in the cytoplasm during glycolysis. insulin, a protein that regulates blood sugar levels, is secreted from specialized pancreatic cells. assume that you can track the cellular locations of these two proteins from the time that translation is complete until the proteins reach their final destinations.for each protein, identify its targeting pathway: the sequence of cellular locations in which the protein is found from when translation is complete until it reaches its final (functional) destination. (note that if an organelle is listed in a pathway, the location implied is inside the organelle, not in the membrane that surrounds the organelle.)

Suppose you have monohybrid pea plants in your garden and find that they produce round seed to wrinkled seeds in the ratio of 3: 1. if the allele are designated (r & r) receptively. what is the probable genotypes of the round seeds which produced f 1 ? rr & rr rr only rr & rr rr only rr only
