Answer: transcription

Explanation: Transcription is a process by which an mRNA is synthesized using a DNA template. It is the process of copying the genetic message encoded in a DNA into an RNA. This process is catalyzed by an enzyme known as RNA polymerase. The RNA polymerase requires a DNA template, four oligonucleotides (ATP, UTP, CTP, and GTP) as precursors for RNA synthesis. The newly synthesized mRNA is complementary to the template strand of DNA in the sense that wherever adenine is found in the DNA template strand uracil occurs in the mRNA strand, wherever thymine occurs in the DNA template strand, adenine is found in the mRNA strand and wherever guanine occurs in the DNA template, cytosine occurs in the mRNA strand.

Which one of the following statements is true of enzyme catalysts? A) Their catalytic activity is independent of pH. B) They are
muminat

Answer:

D) They can increase the reaction rate for a given reaction by a thousand-fold or more.

Explanation:

Enzymes are like catalysts with the only difference that they are bio-molecules. Biochemical/chemical reactions are slow because of 'transition state barriers' which require a lot of energy to overcome so enzymes rather than overcoming transition state barrier provide an alternate pathway for biochemical reactions which require comparatively less energy. Thus presence of an enzyme leads to an increase in reaction rate because alternate pathway which requires less energy makes the rate of chemical reaction rapid by a thousand-fold or more.

Why is the mixing of fresh water and salt water in the bay important?
Setler [38]

Answer:

When the salt water is mixed with fresh water,it is called brakish water which have the salinity 0.5 to 35 ppt.

Explanation:

The mixing of fresh and salt water is important for aquatic organisms.

The catadromous fish born in marine habitat but they spend their rest of life in the fresh water where growing and maturation takes place.

Ex- Eel is the common example of catadromous fish.

Like wise,

Anadromous fish born in fresh water and spends their life in the sea and return to fresh water for spawning.

For example Salmon, smelt, shad, are common examples.

Thus mixing of water is important for breeding and growing of these fishes.

More over, the brakish water contain world's most diversified life forms.

Identify which type of natural selection is described in each case below.
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Results in the evolution of the species: Directional selection

Results in new species: Disruptive selection

Favors traits at the two extremes: Disruptive selection

No increase in diversity: Directional selection

One extreme trait is favored: Directional selection

Diversity decreases: Stabilizing selection

Diversity increases: Disruptive selection

Explanation:

Directional selection which is also known as positive selection is known to be a mode of natural selection. In this type of selection, an extreme phenotype is favored over other phenotypes. This makes the allele frequency to move in the direction of that phenotype and this takes place over time.

Disruptive selection (known to be diversifying selection) talks about the certain changes in the population genetics whereby extreme values of a particular trait are favored over intermediate values. This results in new species.

While Stabilizing selection is a natural selection whereby there is a stabilization of the population mean on the particular value of a non-extreme trait. Here the diversity is decreases.
