Greenhouse effect - atmosphere traps additional heat (some light absorbed, some reflected. Reflected in form of infrared light. GE occurs when the atmosphere temporarily traps some of the infrared light that the ground emits, slowing its return to space.) Occurs only when the atmosphere contains gases that can absorb infrared light (greenhouse gases: H2O, CO2, methane (CH4).

What observations are consistent with the conclusion that DNA serves as the genetic material in eukaryotes? Select the four corr
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:DNA is shown to be the genetic material in bacteria and some phages.

DNA is shown to be present in mitochondria, chloroplasts and nucleus, where genetic function is performed

Specific genes can be isolated and spliced into bacterial DNA, which can be inserted into a bacterial cell, and then its genetic expression is monitored.

DNA and RNA are found to be the only macromolecules in eukaryotes that consist of a set of subunits which can combine in unique sequence

Explanation:

1. Lipds is another macro molecule with different subnits  of  fatty acids and glycerol,therefore the option ( DNA is found to be the only macro molecule in Eukaryotas that has different sub units) is WRONG.

2 The   correlation of action and absorption spectra varies with different organisms DNA. e..g  in viral cells  there is a wide difference between the absorption and action spectra, that is no correlation, while  some bacterial cells showed correlations. The option(For DNA, content in various cell types action and absorption spectra of ultraviolet light are correlated IS WRONG.

A nerve impulse is an electric charge running across a neuron. Explain why the stimulation supports this explanation
Softa [21]

Plato answer:

Stimulation of a neuron causes a change in the charge inside the cell from negative to positive. This change is caused by ions, which are atoms with an electrical charge, moving across the cell. This change within the cell is consistent with the definition of an electric charge.
