Answer: Nucleus

Explanation:

The nucleus is referred as the brain of the cell because it contains the genetic information necessary to carry out cellular functions.

Inside the nucleus, there is the genetic material called chromosomes, made of DNA that carry the necessary instructions to direct cell activities. Because, DNA carries information necessary for the synthesis of proteins that form tissues and perform various biological functions. The functions of proteins are to maintain their integrity, defend themselves against external agents, repair damage, control and regulate functions, and others.

Practically, proteins are in charge of almost everything in the organism. And since they are made according to the information encoded in the genetic material inside the nucleus, this organelle is called the brain of the cell.

A drought causes a wildfire which destroys a forest. Which Earth systems interact during this process? (1 point) Select one: a.

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

It is the biosphere and hydrosphere that interact when a drought causes a wildfire that destroys a forest. 

Explanation:

Hydrosphere consists of all the water bodies of earth like oceans, seas, rivers, lakes etc. a drought occurs due to scarcity of water which affects the hydrosphere. The scarcity of water causes plants and trees to dry up and become more prone to catching fire

Biosphere includes all the living organisms of the earth. It includes plants, trees, birds, insects, animals etc. A drought dries up a whole area and a small fire that starts up somewhere in a forest would then engulf the whole forest.

How will hurricane risks and impacts change over the next 100 years?

Papessa [141]

Answer:

Hurricanes will become more frequent and expand to new areas.

Explanation:

Global warming will rise sea temperatures worldwide. This means conditions for hurricanes will be met more often (they only form in higher than average sea temperatures). That means more hurricanes will form in the future. Also because of rising sea temperatures new areas will be effected by hurricanes as they will meet the threshold required for hurricanes to form.
