[quote author=I_am_Sylva]aunty storm abeg help me tell them oo [/quote]Hahahaha everything is cool....

As for those questions...mehn...only google can help me. As in I have never heard of speciation or founders effect...abi is it physics? Na wa o

peternonso: wch type of speciation is associated with the founders effects

Lord of mercy and compassion! Hahahaha! Under which science topic is dis wan? Kai....
*running*

Enthalpy is positive for endothermic reactions...or have I missed sth?
Lemme read thru....

No be me open thread so I don't know the rules....
But I don't think insults should be allowed here. Don't get me wrong oh..its fun to watch and all but come on.....
Just take it easy with the name calling. U can be angry that's allowed but no name calling pls.
*the guilty party knows himself*
No more verbal abuse!

efe2real: U nor c me for parlor Madam Storm

Lol....

sammyenergy: Updated status for ASUU STRIKE:FG promise student that strike will be off in few month. Senate plead with ASUU to call off strike considering the fact that no changes will come up again.

Hmmm thank u bros...
Frankly sha this strike is now pointless
I only say this cos FG is not willing to do jack

danox: If Jamb really gave universities 31st of October as deadline for admission,then Uniben will release the list soon

My brother...all my expectations and "speculations" have just been shattered. ASUU is falling my hand....uniben falling my hand...FG (no comment)....so I've decided not to set myself up for disappointment. I check the uniben site daily sha...but I have no expectations again. Long speech lol
Summary: I'm vexing seriously! And I'm starting to doubt jamb's ultimatum will help matters(make uniben behave well) .....the strike might change everything

*just watching with popcorn*

Ikemsinachi: already read. No account dat platelets are not cell was given!

Actually...that was said in the first paragraph...but its old news now abeg..let's keep this place fun and groovey

Hehehehehe I can see I missed some action...

Elliotwiz1: i didn't know this so i'll ask more on it, no offence please..... "They're tiny irregular cell fragments which are non-nucleaued" if They're not living cells then why did they talk about them not being nucleated?......

Lol..read this http://www.ouhsc.edu/platelets/platelets/platelets%20intro.html

Swagalord18: we all know it depletes the ozone layer ...my question waz "explain" ...maybe u skipped that ..
Nd the ozone layer makes up 4 it ....but obviously not well enof ...i nid an explanation 4 how it does that too ...@all

Hehehehehehe......mehn...I'll quietly sit this one out thanks....cos I haven't the slightest clue

Rehnoy: THE EFFECT
CFCs when decomposed releases
chlorine and bromine into the ozone layer,
These two substances(chemicals) damage and deplete the ozone layer. Becos for every 1atom of chlorine thousands of molecules of the ozone layer are destroyed. *me thinks*

Hmmmm
Its clear I need to look at examples of chlorofloro carbons...it neva really hit me that all this is a chemical reaction ...and I wonder why
Book sef

Ikemsinachi: You can't and I guess no one here could convince me dat platelets are not cell. I think you are very wrong!

Damn.......dude just google it up and read it on ur own time na...I did and its true...they're cell fragments...
#chillaxing#

Oghos1: Exactly!!!!!

***dancing***
I get it now...used to actually confuse pollination with fertilization...thanks...

Swagalord18: can someone explain the effect of CFCs(chloro-flouro-carbons), on the ozone layer, ...and how the ozone layer makes up for it

Wow..I know CFC's deplete the ozone layer causing tears and stuff...
I don't think the ozone layer has a way of making up for it oh....hence the danger..or does it?

Oghos1: Storm read my pollination question very well

N d name is suave. Kindly ignore watz on d moniker. Itz a long story. Tnx8)

Lol...okay @suave...I read it again oh...twas a trick question bah? Lemme see if I can argue my way out...
Below is the question:
Pollination is d transfer of pollen grains from anther 2 stigma of d flowers of d same specie. True or False

The answer is TRUE
The answer would have been false only if the question read thus:
Pollination is d transfer of pollen grains from anther 2 stigma of d flowers of ONLY d same specie. True or False

Am I right or wrong? Sorry oh..I behave like this to learn..plus its fun so....

Oghos1: Lol.

Kindly check for as many definitions of pollination as u can find and u will neva c 'of d same specie'. Definition I said o. Mistake? Nah. It isn't.

However when dae r xplaining. Careless writers tend 2 use pollination n fertilization interchangeably. Dae take fertilization 2 be part of d pollination process n its WRONG.

Dis mistake is ver very common

Hahahahaha...that's another thing oh...its like confusing sexual intercourse with pregnancy

Summary: okay let's put it like this successful pollination can only occur btw plants of the same species..
And some plants can successfully pollinate themselves....

*modified* succesful pollination would lead to fertilization..as @oghos1 has pointed out

Swagalord18: lol ...so som1 shouldnt read, but think .....goodluck with dat oo
.
.
Btw ..i thought b4 answering ...m suprised that u sed that number 2 iz rong ....anywayz ... [url=www.thecourier.com/opinion/columns/2011/Aug/GW/ar_GW_080211.asp?d=120710,2010,Dec,07&c=s] [/url]
.
.this page tends 2 disagree with ur teacher... Pls explain why

U know what? The answer is in the argument....
One specie of plant can either pollinate itself...or another plant of the same species....
@ Oghos1's question made no mention of species..so maybe that were the confusion set in. I hope this helps...

Oghos1: Lol. U didn't do bad jare.

Lemmi xplain.

1- platelets aren't cells demselves but are fragments of very large cells (megakaryocytes) found in d bone 2)pollination is transfer of pollen grain from ANTHER to STIGMA. Dahzall. It may be of d same or different species. D same plant or different plant........
Summary. Pollination is d transfer of pollen grain from anther 2 stigma. D definition ends der. U can research.
3- u r on track

no need to research the pollination question na...I agree with ya...that's why I said its true cos I know some plants can self pollinate
Platelets are fragments of large cells...whoa! Didn't know that...so all platelets na borrow pose? Kai......

Odilop: Virus that attacks bacteria are called?

Bacteriophage

Hahahaha imagine! Some ppl don answer am? Kai...see timing...ooohhhmmm

Oghos1: No correct ansas 2 these yet

Lol..too hard na...
Platlets aren't cells (me no know how I know oh) I doubt they're cells...cos they're not like erythrocytes and leukocytes at all....I only know platelets as "the thing that helps in blood clotting" lol

Emm that polination question...I think its true cos some plants actually self pollinate (that is pollinate themselves)

And finally thermoacidophiles....strictly from the name I'll guess that they're microrganisms (maybe bacteria) that thrive in very hot very acidic habitats..

No crucify me oh...ur questions are hard so.....

[quote author=I_am_Sylva]it has a biological name sir[/quote]Hmmm....autotroph

ugonna1054: Right!! Wah of no 2??

I don't know the colour
All I remember is that the gases are used in the fountain experiment because they are very soluble in water...as for colour? Nada....

[quote author=I_am_Sylva]1) it is found in protozoans.. And it z an object of defense
2)*scratches head* maggot?
3)xeromorphics can cope in almost any environment whereas xerophytics are programmed to adapt to harsh conditions
4) found in earth worm.. Can't remember it's function[/quote]Awww
1)Found in paramecium specifically...object of defense yes..
2)Lol...grub...maggot is the larva of houseflies
3)Very correct...xeromorphs can survive w/o water but will do better in better conditions...while xerophytic plants will die if excess water is..administered..(E.g cactus)
4) Earthworm correct...emm...creates the cocoon that carries the eggs..(I don't knw if "create" is the best word to use.....)

harryhenry02: STORM PLS what's your FACEBOOK ID? I would like to inquire something from you

I've sent u an email...holla back when u can

Hahahahaha! See as everybody leave houz for me...
If I post fake newz na all of una go show **smh**


***walking away***

eazylu: lol..but they shouldn't. It will not change a thing about the admission status. I come dey wonder whether engineering applicants nor follow do the screening.

Hahahaha....na so na engineering ppl have more confidence jare....
MBBS matter no clear at all.

Elliotwiz1: the cyst acts as a protective shield around an organism, but i don't know if trichocyst is different¿clitellum is the storage centre for eggs in earthworms...

Lol....u're correct abt the earthworms...

Mr Calculus: hmm.....biology one tin i really love[irony].
i think trychocist is more like a defence tool and also 4 attackin prey.it is use by paramicium.

Lol....correct

Mr Calculus: U GUYS SHOULD POST PRACTICAL QUES LIKE CALCULATIONS CAUSE THEORYTICAL QUES CAN EASILY B BROWSED.
where are all d chemist and physikis

True...but I'm sure most of us stay true to the spirit of the thread....why not post some calculus questions...
I'm a biologist (I know absolutely no math) so I can only post bio and chem questions...

eazylu: Na wa o... everyone's talking about medicine and surgery, engineering applicants no dey this thread?
Anyway sha, I wish you all success. May your expectations come to pass.
Papa God no dey dull im children.

They're here oh. They're just not as scared as we are.....lol

Rehnoy: Oya let the questions roll.

Hehehehe....

More bio
What's is the fuction of trichocyst? And in what organism can it be found?

What is the name of the larval stage of a wasp?

What is the difference between a xeromorphic plant and a xerophytic plant?

What is the function of clitellum? And in what organism is it found?

Oghos1: Yea. Exactly. Beans n meat both contain protein but dae r not examples of protein. Dae r protein rich(proteinous) foods instead. Beans even has more carbohydrate dan protein. YES. Itz true..........
Summary:
Sources of nutrients n d actual nutrients should not be confused.

Oh boy!!! Na true oh!!! I understand now...thanks..kai....
Na true..okay eba is a source of carbs...not a carb itself...I get it now.
Thanks for taking the time to explain my brain is growing #dancing#

ugonna1054: 1.Name the two gases used to carry out d Fountain xperiment.
2.Wat is d color of d fountain water.

NH3 and HCL
