Biodiversity hotspot

A biodiversity hotspot is a biogeographic region with significant levels of biodiversity that is threatened with humans. Norman Myers wrote about the concept in two articles in “The Environmentalist” (1988), and 1990 revised after thorough analysis by Myers and others “Hotspots: Earth’s Biologically Richest and Most Endangered Terrestrial Ecoregions” and a paper published in the journal Nature

arlik [135]

Answer:

a. Fiber

Explanation:

The major nutrients required by humans in food are carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Our food also has dietary fibers and water. Dietary fibers or fibers are also known as roughage. Fibers are present mainly in plant products such as whole grains, pulses, fruits and vegetables. Fibers only add bulk and do not provide any nutrients to us. However, dietary fibers help the body get rid of undigested food.

Binocular vision, the ability to focus both eyes on the same object at the same time, usually does not develop until ?
vekshin1

Binocular vision, the ability to focus both eyes on the same object at the same time, usually does not develop until  4-5 months of age.

Binocular vision is the type of vision in which both the eyes look in the same direction to form a 3-D image of the object. One single image is formed by both the eyes. When any disorder appears regarding the binocular vision, the core reason is the misalignment of both the eyes.

Eyes are the organs of vision. They are present in a pair embedded in a socket like region on the skeleton below the forehead. The image is formed at the retina of the eye. The image formed is an upside down image.

.<br> 1. Why is digestion so important to organisms?
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Digestion is important for breaking down food into nutrients, which the body uses for energy, growth, and cell repair. Food and drink must be changed into smaller molecules of nutrients before the blood absorbs them and carries them to cells throughout the body. The body breaks down nutrients from food and drink into carbohydrates, protein, fats, and vitamins.

<u>Translation:</u> process of protein formation is called translation .

In the process of translation, a cell reads information from a molecule called a messenger RNA  and uses this information to build a protein.  Translation involves “decoding” a messenger RNA  and using its information to build a polypeptide, or chain of amino acids .

Translation involve three major steps

• Initiation ("beginning"): in this stage, the ribosome gets together with the mRNA and the first tRNA so translation can begin.

• Elongation ("middle"): in this stage, amino acids are brought to the ribosome by tRNAs and linked together to form a poly peptide chain.

•Termination ("end"): in the last stage of translation, the finished polypeptide is released to go and do its job in the cell.

<u>Organelles involve in translation:</u>

Ribosomes: main process of translation occour at ribosomes.

Rough endoplasmic reticulum: ribosomes are located on rough endoplasmicreticulum .it bound proteins in the vesicles.Vesicles containing proteins are budded off into cytoplasm and move toward golgi apparatus for further modification .

Golgi apparatus: synthesisezed proteins are not functional . In golgi apperatus they are further modefied and processed and stored for a short time and then released toward destination.
