The correct answer is letter A.
Rainforest deforestation is contributing to a decline in global biodiversity. Irresponsible logging causes the major destruction of many habitats. As a result, many living organisms that are thriving within these forests are displaced or are killed because they no longer have any place where they can thrive and live in peace with their respective species. Deforestation accounts for most of the major catastrophic natural events that we are experiencing at present.
The purpose of ethical guidelines for handling of experimental subjects is to ensure the safety and well-being of all living creatures in an experiment.
Ethical guidelines include issues such as human rights, animal welfare, safety compliance with the law, conflicts of interest, health standards..
Ethical guidelines are the norms for the acceptable and unacceptable behaviors of the researchers.
Answer: See explanation below for answer.
Explanation: Mount Lico is an inselberg, meaning that it is an isolated mountain that rises abruptly from the surrounding plain. At the top of the mountain is a forest that lacks exploration and exploitation by humans.
The mountain is located the Zambezia province in northern Mozambique. It is 1,100 meters or 3,600 feet above sea level, and this is the major reason why it lacks exploitation by humans.
The features of Mount Lico that isolate the forest on top the mountain from the surrounding area are its height and sheer rock walls (which can be up to 700 meters).
Answer:
DNA ligase
Explanation:
DNA replication is an enzyme mediated, 3-step process during which the DNA molecule produces a copy of itself. The 3 steps involved are as follows;
- initiation
- elongation
- termination
<em>Initiation </em>involves the unwinding of the double helix structure of the DNA using DNA helicase enzyme
<em>Elongation</em> involves binding of RNA primer to the DNA strands and addition of bases to the primer<em> </em>to elongate the new chains. Bases are added to the leading strand continuously while the lagging strand is replicated in short segments (okazaki segments).
<em>Termination</em> involves the unbinding of RNA primer and substitution of its bases by DNA bases. The Okazaki fragments are then joined together using the DNA ligase enzyme.
<em>The short, numerous segments of DNA observed in the mixture is the Okazaki fragments of the lagging strand. This is due to the absence of the enzyme involved in the joining of these fragments.</em>
Hence, the answer is DNA ligase.
This was a major breakthrough in geology because it meant that sedimentary strata in diverse parts of a country or area could be correlated as belonging to the same formation which means they were formed at the same time historically so helped to put them in the correct sequence. If these strata contained valuable minerals like coal then it could aid in the search for coal. This helped William 'Strata' Smith in England to create his first geological map in the world of a whole country.
