What are the characteristics of a successful group discussion? Select two options. The discussion focuses on only one or two points of view. The discussion focuses on some points of view more than on others. The discussion is dominated by one or two well-prepared participants. The discussion allows all group members to share their points of view. The discussion encourages group members with conflicting views to speak up.

Answers

Answer:

The correct options are the last two statements.

Explanation:

Group discussion is produced with the combination of two distinct words, that is, group and discussion. It is a process in which the ideas are exchanged by the candidates participating in a particular topic or subject. The entire concept is to bring a unit of individuals together on a common platform to share their views.  

Usually, it is an approach used by organizations or companies to check whether the candidates possess the desired skills or personality that are mandatory for their employees or members. A successful group discussion should permit all the individuals in a group an opportunity to be heard and should allow them to share their personal points of view.  

Answer:

The last two options.

1-point of views

2-and to speak up

Why bacteria in the soil. are necessary in this ecosystem 8th Grade Science

Answers

There could be a lot of reasons. To help break down food for the plants, kill off bad and harmful things that might damage the plant. 
Bacteria are important in the soil to maintain the nitrogen cycle. Certain type of bacterais help in nitrogen fixation. They also decompose dead and decaying matter into nitrogen compounds such as ammonia. The nitrogen and nitrogenous compounds in turm help the plant to grow.

When the plant dies, the bacteria again decomposes it into nitrogenous compounds. Not only plants, but also animals. The nitrogen then passes through various stages and then gets back to atmospheric nitrogen. Bacteria is an important part of this nitrogen cycle.

Explanation:

8. Natural selection works on variation that exists in the genes of organisms. Antelopes who have genetic variation that makes their legs more muscular are at an advantage because they can outrun predators. This increases the chance that they will reach reproductive age, and be able to pass this advantageous trait onto their offspring. Over time, this selection pressure makes the variant more common in a population.

9. Beneficial traits are those that give a selective advantage. This could be one that helps it outrun predators (like above), avoid illness and death, gives it a reproductive advantage (i.e. more attractive to mates), or makes it better able to digest certain foods, for example. The formation of cancer cells would be harmful for an organism, reducing its fitness and perhaps leading to death. The inability to reproduce would mean genetic info is not passed on to the next generation, and stopping the production of an essential protein would likely lead to death. However, resistance to a virus would help an organism avoid illness and death, improving fitness.

10. Genotypes are what organisms inherit from their parents, i.e. the genetic information that is passed on. However, the way in which different alleles interact and are expressed is the phenotype. If we take the above example, natural selection is acting on the phenotype of muscular legs. If an antelope had the muscular leg genotype but for some reason it was not being expressed (maybe another gene is interfering with it), then the antelope would not have a selective advantage, and natural selection could not be act on the trait.

11. A trait that better suits an organism to its environment will be selected for by natural selection. This is because that organism is more likely to survive due to the trait, giving it a selective advantage. Therefore, if a mutation arose making the giraffe more adapted to the environment, it would be positively selected for, and through evolution would become more common.

12. This is an example of selective breeding, which has been happening for generations. Farmers spot desirable traits, and cross horses with these traits in an attempt to enhance the trait or to ensure it is passed on to the next generation. This is not natural selection, because farmers are making it happen artificially. It is not cloning or recombinant DNA, which are terms scientists use for actually manipulating the DNA in the lab.

Antibiotics can be used to treat _____.

Answers

Antibiotics can be used to treat "bacteria or preventing bacteria from multiplying and spreading." Bacteria can cause a person to become sick and gain diseases. So antibiotics are used to treat bacteria by killing it and also keep it from spreading, and multiplying to different parts of your body.

Hope this helps! 
hi there :)

ANTIBIOTICS CAN BE USED TO TREAT INFECTIONS COMING BACK AND PREVENT FURTHER LONG LASTING SICKNESS, WE KNOW THIS BECAUSE IT STATES  "bacteria or preventing bacteria from multiplying and spreading." MEANING THAT ANTIBIOTICS ARE MAINLY USED TO TREAT SOME SORT OF BACTERIAL SICKNESS.


have a nice day :)
