The category of organic molecules that is correctly matched with one of its functions is (D) proteins – speed up chemical reactions.

Proteins are made up of amino acids and they serve a variety of cellular functions. These organic molecules also function as enzymes as well as hormones. Enzymes are proteins which act as biocatalysts and increase the rate of chemical reactions.

Carbohydrates are the macromolecules with the general formula (CH₂O)ₙ, where 'n' denotes the number of carbon atoms in the molecule. Their main function is to provide immediate energy to the body.

Lipids are non-polar organic molecules. They are hydrophobic in nature and are utilized for long-term energy storage by the cell. Nucleic acids are responsible for transmitting the genetic information from one generation to another.

Which of the following statements regarding the fossil record is FALSE? Group of answer choices The fossil record does not conta
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

The statement, that is, the fossil record does not contain any fossil remains of plants, only animals is false.

Explanation:

Any trace of past life is termed as the fossil. It can be an organism's remains like shells, plants, bones, or teeth. Any activity of an organism like burrows, footprints, and feces can be known as a fossil record. Five different ways by which the formation of a fossil takes place are natural casts, permineralization, trace fossils, amber preserved, and preserved remains.  

The formation of a fossil distinctly takes place, however, the majority of them formed when an animal or plant dies in a watery environment and gets buried underneath the silt and mud. In the process, the soft tissues quickly get decompose and leave behind the shells or hard bones. With time accumulation of sediments takes place over the top and solidifies into a rock.

Si una población crece mucho otra vez después de un cuello de botella con el paso del tiempo aumentará diversidad genética ¿por
sammy [17]

Answer:

los mecanismos capaces de generar diversidad actúan para incrementar la variabilidad genética en la población que sufrió el cuello de botella

Explanation:

Un cuello de botella se refiere a una reducción drástica en el tamaño de una población (por ejemplo, debido a una catástrofe natural). Un cuello de botella es un fenómeno que está asociado a la ​reducción en la variación genética y fijación de ciertos alelos en la población resultante, lo cual es causado por la deriva genética, es decir, debido al muestreo al azar de los individuos que formarán la población en la siguiente generación. Paulatinamente, los mecanismos capaces de generar variabilidad genética aumentarán nuevamente la diversidad de la población que sufrió el cuello de botella. En una población de reproducción sexual, la variación genética se genera mediante cuatro procesos diferentes: 1-mutación (es decir, la aparición de nuevos alelos debido a alteraciones en la secuencia de ADN); 2-recombinación (es decir, el intercambio de información genética entre cromátidas no hermanas durante la meiosis); 3-segregación independiente de cromosomas durante la meiosis (capaz de producir nuevas combinaciones de alelos) y 4-fertilización al azar (lo cual también incrementa el número de combinaciones entre gametos que darán lugar a un nuevo individuo).

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Dessert and tundra

Explanation:

Theses two biomes get very little rain and because of this they have a less diversity of fauna and flora.

The differences are that a tundra is very dry and extremely cold and on the other hand a desert is very arid and hot and it can go as high as 54°C (130°F).
