Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

The metamorphic rocks are defined as those rocks that are formed due to the increasing pressure and temperature conditions. They are known as the secondary rocks because they are directly derived from either igneous or sedimentary or other metamorphic rocks. For example, Quartzite, Schist, Gneiss and Marble.

Due to the high amount of temperature and heat conditions, the chemical composition of the rock alters and changes to a more higher grade rocks. This metamorphic rocks are mainly of 2 types. They are as follows-

(1) Foliated- For example, Schist and Gneiss

(2) Non-foliated- For example, Marble and Quartzite.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

Answer:

Index Fossils

Explanation:

Index fossils are used by scientists to help them figure out the dating of discovered fossils or the correlation. They are also very known to appear in a (very) certain/specific age range.

Each kidney contains ____ of nephrons. Each is _____ but extremely _____, much like a neuron(but shorter).
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

One million.

Explanation:

Each kidney contains about one million of nephrons. The nephron is the structural and functional unit of the kidney means that our kidney is made up of nephrons. The main function of nephron is to produces urine in the process of removing waste, toxic and excess substances from the blood. kidney is responsible for the filtration of blood by removing all the waste materials and taken these waste materials to the excretory organs in order to remove from the body.

user100 [1]

Answer:

TAAGCCATGACATGATCG

Explanation:

Transcription is the process of transfer of genetic information from DNA to RNA, typically to a messenger RNA (mRNA). During transcription, a particular DNA sequence called 'gene' is used as template to create an mRNA which is subsequently used to synthesize a protein by the process of translation. During this process (transcription), Uracil (U) bases pair with Adenine (A) and replace thymine (T) bases in RNA.

Describe how a plasmid can be genetically modified to include a piece of foreign dna that alters the phenotype of bacterial cell
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Simple version:

First, the section with the desirable gene must be identified. Assuming that has already happened, the section of DNA must be excised from the original genome using restriction enzymes, which recognize certain DNA sequences and snip DNA at those sites. DNA ligase is used to "glue" these ends back together. The DNA is inserted into a plasmid (also with restriction enzymes), which would usually contain antibiotic-resistance genes (so they survive in an environment containing the antibiotic, which would also help show if the bacteria have been successfully transformed). 

Then comes the actual transformation process. The bacteria to be transformed are mixed with calcium chloride (which causes the bacteria to be more receptive to the plasmids) and then mixed with the plasmids. The bacterial cells are subjected to a heat shock (the solution is heated and rapidly cooled, e.g. by placing the mixture in a hot water bath and quickly transferred to ice) so they will take up the plasmid (since the temperature change makes the membrane more permeable). The bacteria are placed on a growth medium containing the antibiotic they're resistant to. Only those successfully transformed would survive.
