Answer: (A) Heavy metals are released into surrounding soil, poisoning local vegetation.
Explanation: Open-pit mining falls under the surface mining category in the lesson 01.07 page 3/8 under the affects of surface mining the only one that is in the multiple choice questionnaire is "Heavy metals are released into surrounding soil". (don't know how much this helps since I'm 7 days late but hey this is a new curriculum and I've had trouble finding answers on brainy so why not contribute for once ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )
The correct statement that best describes an environmental consequence of open-pit mining is that heavy metals are released into the surrounding soil, poisoning local vegetation.
The large hole left by open-pit mining becomes filled with water during heavy rains with heavy metals dissolving in the water to form solutions.These solutions percolate the surrounding soil and when they are taken up by the vegetation on the soil, the plants become poisoned by the heavy metals.In other words, the hole created by open-pit mining serves as an avenue for heavy metals to get into the surrounding soil and gets into the food chain through the plants.

why is water not advisable for cleaning a microscope?
7. Compare: Return the arrows to their tray and turn on the Displacement graph. How is the displacement
graph related to the acceleration graph?
Answer:
to know how many correspond to each tray if we divide the total cookies equally, we need to make a division of the total cookies divided by the amount of trays, that is:
567 cookies / 7 trays = 567/7
= 81
therefore, there will be 81 cookies in each tray
Explanation:
if your leg was to get cut off where would you feel the pain?
The thigh area will feel much more pain as when leg is cut off , all nerves are together in thighs, so more pain will be there.
Hope it helps you... pls mark brainliest if it helped you
Answer:
The nerve(s) in your leg.
Explanation:
It's not your leg that will hurt but the nerve in your leg. So wherever the leg is cut, the nerves will have to be cut as well, but also after one of your limbs is amputated, you may feel like the limb is still there. That's called phantom sensation. You might feel pain in your limb even though it is physically not there.

In the following pedigree showing the transmission of Cystic Fibrosis, an
autosomal recessive condition, what must the genotype of the indicated woman
be?
A: FF
B: Ff
C: ff
D: cannot determine
*red circle is affected female*
*blue circle is normal female*
*red square is affected male*
*blue square is normal male*
In the pedigree showing the transmission of Cystic Fibrosis, the genotype of the marked woman will be FF or Ff. Thus, options A and B are correct.
What is a pedigree?Pedigree represents the heritable phenotypic trait in the form of charts and diagrams. Cystic Fibrosis disease is inherited by the autosomal recessive alleles and is possible only if the genotype is ff.
The genotype for the woman being normal should not have recessive alleles and only can be heterozygous or purebred dominant. It is possible only if the genotype is Ff and ff.
Therefore, the genotype of the indicated woman will be Ff and ff.

What is the relationship between ribosomes and rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER)?
Rough ER produces the polypeptide chains that ribosomes need to make protein.
Rough ER is the subunit of ribosomes that makes proteins
Ribosomes attached to rough ER make proteins that the rough ER then transports around the cell
Ribosomes transport proteins made by rough ER to the Golgi apparatus.
Answer:
Ribosomes attached to rough ER make proteins that the rough ER then transports around the cell
Explanation:
Trust me i got you
Ribosomes attached to rough ER make protein that the rough ER then transports around the cell.
What is rough Endoplasmic reticulum?Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), series of associated leveled sacs, part of a nonstop film organelle inside the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells, that assumes a focal part in the blend of proteins. The unpleasant endoplasmic reticulum (RER) is so named for the presence of its external surface, which is studded with protein-orchestrating particles known as ribosomes.
This element separates it hastily and practically from the other significant sort of endoplasmic reticulum (emergency room), the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER), which needs ribosomes and is associated with the union and stockpiling of lipids. RER happens in both creature and plant cells.

Answer:
CarbohydratesExplanation:
Carbohydrates are energy-rich compounds made from carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
Plants and animals use carbohydrates. Cells use carbohydrates to get and store energy.
Plants contain cellulose, a carbohydrate, which gives them a rigid structure.
____________________________________ use reduced, preformed organic molecules (usually from other organisms) as carbon sources, obtain energy from the oxidation of organic compounds, and use reduced organic compounds as their electron source.
Answer:
Heterotrophs
Explanation:
Heterotroph, in ecology, is an organism that consumes other organisms in a food chain. They acquire their energy by the controlled breakdown of preexisting organic molecules, or food.
¹All heterotrophs, use organic materials as their sole source of carbon. Heterotrophs use preformed organic compounds as their source of carbon. (Source: Brittanica)
Metabolic cycles in general—the extraction by organisms of useful ²energy and food molecules from environmental source material—can be described in terms of oxidation-reduction reactions
Heterotrophs can be organotrophs or lithotrophs. Organotrophs exploit reduced carbon compounds as electron sources, like carbohydrates, fats, and proteins from plants and animals. On the other hand, lithoheterotrophs use inorganic compounds, such as ammonium, nitrite, or sulfur, to obtain electrons.

Explain how the interaction of the Sun, the atmosphere, and the oceans produce winds.
Pls help I am giving brainliest ( science not biology )
Explanation:
The sun heats the air leading to warm air. the warm air rises thus makes the cooler air from the surroundings to replace it. This leads to creating wind . This same process applies for ocean currents.
The sun heats water which make warm water come to the surface of the ocean thus replacing it with cooler water leading to ocean currents.

Hope it is helpful....por que un globo con aire se agranda al sol y se achica en la heladera
Answer: El globo congelado se contrajo porque la energía cinética promedio de las moléculas de gas en un globo disminuye cuando la temperatura disminuye. Esto hace que las moléculas se muevan más lentamente y tengan colisiones menos frecuentes y más débiles con la pared interior del globo, lo que hace que el globo se encoja un poco.

how does the liver help in maintaining homeostasis
Answer:
The liver plays a major role in blood glucose homeostasis by maintaining a balance between the uptake and storage of glucose via glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. The liver is the primary organ for glucose metabolism.
Glycogenolysis: Glycogenolysis is the biochemical pathway in which glycogen breaks down into glucose-1-phosphate and glycogen.
Gluconeogenesis: Gluconeogenesis is the synthesis of glucose from non-sugar precursors, such as lactate, pyruvate, and the carbon skeleton of glucogenic amino acids.
