Deletion is when a part of the chromosome is deleted. (Removed)
Insertion is when part of our chromosome has an extra bit added to it.
Translocation Is when one part of the chromosome is moved to another chromosome.

The correct answer is inversion, to invert means to turn upside down. So when part of the chromosome is taken off but attached backwards (turned upside down) we call it inversion

Hope that makes sense

Is the temperature profile in the thermosphere more like that of the troposphere or the stratosphere?
podryga [215]

The correct answer is: stratosphere.

This is because their temperatures are rising instead of decreasing.

There are 4 primary layers of the atmosphere on Earth:  

Troposphere (6-20km), the layer that we live in, where the weather occurs. Only nitrogen and oxygen present.

Stratosphere  (20-50 km), where the airplanes fly, contains the ozone layer, which absorbs harmful radiation from the sun.

Mesosphere (50-85 km), the coldest region of Earth’s atmosphere (-100 C), protective layer

Thermosphere (80-690), the hottest (1500 C) and the thickest layer which consists of the ionosphere and the exosphere.
