Vesta:

-Discovered: March 29, 1807 by Heinrich Wilhelm Olbers of Germany (fourth asteroid discovered)

-Dimensions: About 578 by 560 by 458 kilometers (359 by 348 by 285 miles)

-Shape: Nearly spheroid, with a massive chunk out of the south pole

-Rotation: Once every 5 hours, 20 minutes

Ceres:

-Discovered: January 1,1801 by Giuseppe Piazzi of Italy (first asteroid/dwarf planet discovered)

-Size: 975 by 909 kilometers (606 by 565 miles)

-Shape: Spheroid

-Rotation: Once every 9 hours, 4.5 minutes

Below is an image to see a size comparison of how big the asteroids are in comparison.

Hope this helps!

Which of the following is an important exception to the central dogma of molecular biology? a) Proteins are responsible for most

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

b: many genes code for RNAs that function directly in the cell

Explanation:

The central dogma theory describes the basic framework for gene expression in living organisms. Genetic information from DNA is encoded or transcribed as RNA which then becomes translated as proteins.

The processes that take place for gene to be successfully expressed are;

Replication
Transcription
Translation

Replication is a process whereby DNA makes a copy of itself to be distributed in daughter cells during cell division.

Transcription is the process whereby genetic information in DNA is encoded as RNAs. The RNAs are short-lived as they are quickly utilized in protein synthesis or translation process.

Hence, the RNAs do not function directly in the cells but mere intermediaries in the synthesis of proteins.

The correct option is b.

the nurse completes dietary teaching with a client who has chronic kidney failure. the nurse determines more teaching is needed

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

The options

"I will eat more oranges and other foods with vitamin C."

"I should increase dairy products in my diet."

"I should add protein powder to my fruit smoothies."

The CORRECT ANSWER IS

"I will eat more oranges and other foods with vitamin C."

Explanation:

"I will eat more oranges and other foods with vitamin C."

Citrus fruits are rich in potassium and should be stayed away from, since kidneys find it difficult to remove the excess potassium. Examples of foods that are rich in potassium are dried fruits, avocado, tomato, potatoes, and bananas. This statement indicates that additional teaching is needed.

In kidney failure, the client stands a higer chance for hyperkalemia, hypernatremia, and hyperphosphatemia.

Potassium, is found in large amounts in citrus fruits and dried fruits, and there's need to take these fruits with caution.

Phosphorus is limited due to the important balance of potassium electrolyte with calcium. Protein is inhibited as the failure to remove uric acid, which is produced during protein metabolism, via the kidneys. Sodium, obtained in foods, is also restrained to avoid fluid overload and edema.

Scientist often referred to mushrooms as the dark matter of biology because we don't know much about them. Mushrooms are not pla

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Mushrooms and plants all need energy to grow. But the sources of their energy differs.

Explanation:

Sun is the ultimate source of energy for any living organisms to grow and make their food. While plants takes energy from the sun directly and make their food, while the mushrooms which is not a plant does not take energy from the sun directly.

Mushrooms utilizes the energies which is collected by the different organism which collects their energy from the sun such as organisms like the bacteria and plants. Mushrooms grow well in darkness as darkness helps to retain moisture. Mushrooms does not have chlorophyll to make food.

Plants have chlorophyll. And they direct absorb energy from the sun light to make their own food.
