Gemiola [76]3 years ago

The right answer is Uranium (especially U-235).

Nuclear fission is the phenomenon by which a heavy atomic nucleus (that is, formed of a large number of nucleons such as uranium, plutonium, etc.) is split into two or more lighter nuclides.

This nuclear reaction is accompanied by the emission of neutrons (generally two or three) and a very important energy release (≈ 200 MeV (megaelectronvolt) per fissioned atom, compared to the energies of the chemical reactions which are the order of the eV per atom or molecule reacting).

What happens when there is a high concentration of positive transcription factors but a low affinity for the positive transcript
Troyanec [42]

When there is a high concentration of positive transcription factors but a low affinity for the positive transcription factor

Transcription factors are proteins that regulate the transcription of genes—that is, their copying into RNA, on the way to making a protein.

Proteins called transcription factors, however, play a particularly central role in regulating transcription. These important proteins help determine which genes are active in each cell of your body.

<h3>How does transcription factors affect gene expression?</h3>

Under the influence of transcription factors, the various cells of the body can function differently though they have the same genome. Transcription factors attach to one or more series sites, which are called transcription element binding sites (TFBSs), binding to specific DNA sequences of the genes they control

Describe how Darwin theory of evolution by natural selection can explain the spread of antibiotics resistant microorganisms like
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection can explain how antibiotics are becoming defective because the bacteria that is trying to be fought off might have had a mutation making it more likely to survive. Once that surviving bacteria makes offspring most of the first generation will die from the antibiotic but soon all of their offspring will produce a resistance to that antibiotic.
