Nitrogen is present in the environment in abundance but still we cant inhale nitrogen

<h3>What is the role of nitrogen in our body?</h3>

Nitrogen is physiologically inert. It contributes nothing to the functioning of our bodies. The cells in our body need oxygen to live, not nitrogen. we can find nitrogen in our body in form of nitrogeneous base in nucleotide.

We inhale all gases present in air fills our alveoli, by the process of diffusion, only oxygen in the air is taken into the blood stream while the other gases along with the waste CO2 is exhaled. So you do breathe in nitrogen, but it is exhaled as it is by the body.

Scientists theorize that Australia was once part of a larger mainland area but due to plate tectonics, broke away. According to
Greeley [361]

A large assortment of plant dispersal mechanisms.

Explanation:

Pretty much everything can be explained about Australia, as to where it was in the past, with which other large landmasses it was connected, its flora, its isolation from the other continents... One thing that still needs explaining is the large assortment of plant dispersal mechanisms, which is not typical for well established islands.

The reason as to why this is weird and hard to explain is because the well established islands have flora that is well adapted to their living conditions, and also it lacks competition from outside. In other words, they rule the place. The plants in Australia though exhibit dispersal mechanisms that are typical for the plants of the continental masses that are connected, so it causes big problem in explaining it.

Most RNA viruses carry which of the following enzymes?
Dominik [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B.

Explanation:

Viral polymerases are the enzymes which play an important role in the viral genome transcription and replication.

Retrovirus is the single-stranded RNA viruses which replicate through a DNA intermediate and therefore requires the <em>RNA-dependent DNA polymerase or reverse transcriptase</em>. Reverse transcriptase encodes DNA from the strand of RNA which can be replicated and helps in the reproduction of the virus.

Thus, option- B is the correct answer.
