Answer:
Fe
Explanation:
Iron is a chemical element with symbol Fe and atomic number 26. It is a metal that belongs to the first transition series and group 8 of the periodic table. It is, by mass, the most common element on Earth, right in front of oxygen, forming much of Earth's outer and inner core

A.) everything that surrounds an organism
Explanation:
Answer:
Waste disposal
Why? Contributes to the greenhouse effect and causes pollution
Solution: If you bring your lunch to school, package it in reusable containers instead of disposable ones. Carry food in reusable plastic or cloth bags, and bring drinks in a thermos instead of disposable bottles or cartons.
Solution: Compost leftover food

Answer:
a. to treat a disease characterized by a gene that is not expressed.
Explanation:
The RNA interference (RNAi) technique is widely used in molecular biology to inhibit target gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. The RNAi technology uses small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) consisting of 18-22 nucleotides that bind to complementary acid nucleics (i.e., DNA and RNA), thereby inhibiting target gene expression. Recently, it has interestingly been discovered that small RNA sequences targeting promoter regions can also be used to activate the expression of endogenous target genes through a mechanism called RNA activation (RNAa).
Answer: The correct answer is option D
SECONDARY ACTIVE COUNTER-TRANSPORT
Explanation: Secondary active transport is a type of transport that involves molecules across the cell membrane utilizing or making use of energy in other forms than Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP).
The energy that is being made use of comes from the electrochemical gradient created by pumping ions out of the cell. This can be either via antiport or symport.
Antiport or Counter-transport means that 2 different molecules or ions are being transported at the same time but opposite directions. One of the species is allowed to flow from high concentration to a lower concentration (often Sodium) while the other species is transported simultaneously to the other side.
Example is Na+-H+ counter-transport, the example and advantage of this transporter is clearly seen in the proximal tubules of the kidneys. The mechanism for concentrating H+ is not nearly as powerful as Primary active transport, however it can transport extremely large numbers and thus making it a key in H+ homeostasis in the body.
