homeo- comes from a greek word means still the suffix stasis comes from "stoppage" or "standstill" how does this relate to homeostasis
Answer:
The greek word homeo- relates back to homeostasis, as homeostasis is the body keeping it from doing something extreme. Homeostasis tries to maintain your body instead of letting systems wander all over the place, so it is "stopping" it from doing anything irrational.

What best describes ribosomes?
Ribosomes are cellular structures that synthesize proteins from amino acids. They are composed of ribosomal RNA and proteins and are found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
Ribosomes are essential for gene expression and cell growth. They can be free in the cytoplasm or bound to the endoplasmic reticulum or the nuclear envelope.
An example of a ribosome function is the translation of a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence into a polypeptide chain. The ribosome reads the mRNA codons and matchesthem with the corresponding transfer RNA (tRNA) anticodons that carry the amino acids. The ribosome then forms a peptide bond between the amino acids and releases the tRNA. This process continues until the ribosome reaches a stop codon on the mRNA and terminates the protein synthesis.
Answer:
A ribosome is a intercellular structure made of RNA and protein

1. How can hanging clothes reduces the greenhouse gas emissions?
2. What is carbon footprint?
3. What is the difference between finite and infinite?
4. How does using a fan lowers the greenhouse gas emissions?
5. What is mitigating?
6. How can sweeping minimizes noise pollution?
7. How does planting can conserve our natural resources?
Answer:
Explanation:
1) Hanging clothes to dry reduces electricity use and greenhouse gas emissions and makes clothes last longer.
2) The carbon footprint serves as an indicator to compare the amount of greenhouse gases emitted over the entire life cycle from the production of a good or service along the supply chain to its final consumption
3) The word 'Finite' itself describes that it is countable, and the word 'Infinite' means it is not finite or uncountable.
Answer:
Explanation:
1.) Using hanging clothes instead of using any machine(dryer) reduces the emission of gases and uses natural ways (sunlight, wind) to dry them up.
2.) Carbon footprint can be defined as the amount of greenhouse gases especially carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane emissions, that relate to daily human activities.
3.) If the no. of elements are countable then they are said to be finite, while if the no. of elements are uncountable then they are said to be infinite.
4.) Fans help to evaporate moisture from the skin, providing a cooling effect as it creates breezes instead of cooling it, while
Air conditioners remove heat from the air by using energy-intensive refrigeration cycles,
Thus fan helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
5.) Mitigating refers to the act of reducing or minimizing the negative impacts of a particular issue or problem.
What type of carbon cycling occurs when stored carbon in organisms is released when they die, and when carbon from dead organisms can be released underground in the form of coal, oil, or natural gas?
long-term carbon cycling
carbon storage cycling
carbon release cycling
short-term carbon cycling
Answer:
The type of carbon cycling that occurs when stored carbon in organisms is released when they die, and when carbon from dead organisms can be released underground in the form of coal, oil, or natural gas is called the geological carbon cycle. This cycle involves the long-term storage of carbon in rocks and fossil fuels like oil, coal, and natural gas. Carbon is also released back into the atmosphere through various mechanisms such as volcanic eruptions, fires, and burning of fossil fuels.
Explanation:
The carbon cycle can be divided into two main categories: the short-term carbon cycle and the long-term carbon cycle. The short-term carbon cycle involves processes that cycle carbon through the Earth system on roughly annual/decadal timescales. This includes photosynthesis, respiration, and decomposition of organic matter. The long-term carbon cycle takes millions of years to come full circle and involves the movement of carbon between rocks, soil, ocean, and atmosphere through a series of chemical reactions and tectonic activity. Carbon is stored in rocks and fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas for a long time in the geological carbon cycle. Carbon is also released back into the atmosphere through various mechanisms such as volcanic eruptions, fires, and burning of fossil fuels in both short-term and long-term cycles
Genes and Proteins in Hemophilia
Genetic researchers at Bay Medical Company are working to improve treatments for hemophilia. Currently, they are investigating the possibilities of gene therapy, which involves changing a person’s genes so that that person no longer has hemophilia. In order to help Bay Medical Company with their research, read the passage below and then answer the question.
Genes are instructions for proteins. Your traits are determined by the kinds of proteins your body makes. For example, when you get a cut, clotting factor proteins connect to form scabs. People with hemophilia do not have a version of the gene with the right instructions for making clotting factor VIII protein. Without the right instructions, their cells can’t make the proteins needed to form scabs. Healthy people have at least one copy of the gene that provides the right instructions for making all of the clotting factor proteins.
If genetic researchers found a way to change a person’s genes, would they be able to cure hemophilia? Why or why not?

Louis Pasteur ForMemRS (/ˈluːi pæˈstɜːr/, French: [lwi pastœʁ]; December 27, 1822 – September 28, 1895) was a French biologist, microbiologist, and chemist renowned for his discoveries of the principles of vaccination, microbial fermentation and pasteurization. He is remembered for his remarkable breakthroughs in the causes and prevention of diseases, and his discoveries have saved many lives ever since. He reduced mortality from puerperal fever and created the first vaccines for rabies and anthrax.
His medical discoveries provided direct support for the germ theory of disease and its application in clinical medicine. He is best known to the general public for his invention of the technique of treating milk and wine to stop bacterial contamination, a process now called pasteurization. He is regarded as one of the three main founders of bacteriology, together with Ferdinand Cohn and Robert Koch, and is popularly known as the "father of microbiology".[4][5][6]
Pasteur was responsible for disproving the doctrine of spontaneous generation. He performed experiments that showed that, without contamination, microorganisms could not develop. Under the auspices of the French Academy of Sciences, he demonstrated that in sterilized and sealed flasks, nothing ever developed; and, conversely, in sterilized but open flasks, microorganisms could grow.[7] Although Pasteur was not the first to propose the germ theory, his experiments indicated its correctness and convinced most of Europe that it was true.
Today, he is often regarded as one of the fathers of germ theory.[8] Pasteur made significant discoveries in chemistry, most notably on the molecular basis for the asymmetry of certain crystals and racemization. Early in his career, his investigation of tartaric acid resulted in the first resolution of what is now called optical isomers. His work led the way to the current understanding of a fundamental principle in the structure of organic compounds.
He was the director of the Pasteur Institute, established in 1887, until his death, and his body was interred in a vault beneath the institute. Although Pasteur made groundbreaking experiments, his reputation became associated with various controversies. Historical reassessment of his notebook revealed that he practiced deception to overcome his rivals

While savannas and temperate grasslands are both types of
grasslands and share many characteristics, they also have
some differences. Compare them below by writing each
characteristic in the correct location. You will use each only
once.
• home to many types of grazers
• experience all seasons of weather
• home to bison
• home to the African elephant
• example: tallgrass prairies of North America
• example: Serengeti in Tanzania
• also known as tropical grasslands
• few trees due to little rainfall
1)
(Savannas)
(Both Types of
Grasslands)
(Temperate
Grasslands)
Answer:
S - Savannas are typically found in tropical or subtropical regions.
S - Savannas tend to have more trees and shrubs.
S - Savanna's climate is drier than that of a grassland.
G - Grasslands are found in temperature regions.
G - Temperature Grasslands are mainly devoid of trees, receive less rainfall than Savannas & endure broader temperature extremes.
G - Grasslands make up 25 percent of the Earth's land surface and dominate in regions with limited rainfall, which prevents forest growth. This results from nearby mountain ranges that cause rain shadows over adjacent open-range lands.
B - Both represent the world's richest and most diverse ecosystems. They both provide a home for a quarter of the world's population and a habitat for thousands of plants and animals.
B - Many species gather in vast numbers, graze on the varied grasses, and can be found nowhere else on Earth. The coexistence between wildlife and grasses is key to healthy ecosystems. Animal migrations regenerate the landscapes, by controlling pests, dispersing seeds, and trampling invasive species. Through this partnership, grasslands and savannahs generate vital benefits for both people and nature.
B - Ecosystems such as these two in specific are essential for climate mitigation – they store carbon, locking it deep in the soil and extensive root systems. They are the source of or support many of the world’s biggest rivers and wetlands, ensure food security, support livelihoods, and are embedded in the cultural identity of millions of people.
(Also, A savanna or savannah is a mixed woodland-grassland<---similarity)
Explanation: Just research. I decided to state 3 characteristics for both The Savanna and The Grasslands, and then 3 for "B" (both).
PLEASE DO NOW I REALLY NEED TRHIS FAST!!!!! Based on the data in the table above which lists the elevation and average air pressure for several cities, develop a CLAIM, EVIDENCE, REASONING paragraph to explain: HOW DOES AIR PRESSURE CHANGE AS ELEVATION CHANGES?
i listed the chart here
Answer:
Pressure with Height: pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.
Explanation: because the air becomes more dense as you increase in altitude. That's why a plane cannot exceed 35,000 because there will be immense cabin pressure and it will be hard for you to breathe
