The ash from the impact blocked the sun and they froze to death

Answer:

This impact made a huge explosion and a crater about 180 km (roughly 110 miles) across. Debris from the explosion was thrown into the atmosphere, severely altering the climate, and leading to the extinction of roughly 3/4 of species that existed at that time, including the dinosaurs. Many asteroids of this type are now known; their orbits pass through the inner solar system and cross Earth's orbit. Some of these could potentially hit Earth in the future. Most, but not all are smaller than the one that hit us 65 million years ago.

A man pushes a lawn mower with a force of 200N across 50N meters of his lawn. How much work did the man perform?
krok68 [10]
Work is equal to force times distance or W = Fn x d

In this situation, you would use the following equation:
W= 200N x 50N

W= 10,000N

The man performed 10,000N of work.

A nerve impulse is an electric charge running across a neuron. Explain why the stimulation supports this explanation
Softa [21]

Plato answer:

Stimulation of a neuron causes a change in the charge inside the cell from negative to positive. This change is caused by ions, which are atoms with an electrical charge, moving across the cell. This change within the cell is consistent with the definition of an electric charge.

A student has drawn an enlarged portion of a dna "ladder" model to show two of the nucleotides in greater detail (in the same or
galben [10]

A DNA molecule consists of two stands of nucleotides that wind around each other like a twisted ladder with a phosphate and sugar backbone. The  nitrogenous bases are divided into two groups called the pyrimidines and the purines. The pyrimidines include the thymine and cytosine, the purines are adenine and guanine.  The nitrogenous bases in the double helix are bound together according to the base pairing rule. Adenine pairs with thymine (A-T) and guanine pairs with cytosine (G-C). The student either drew the base pairing showing adenine and thymine or guanine pairing with cytosine.

How does mRNA differ from DNA?
ch4aika [34]
DNA  is made up of deoxyribose sugar  while mRNa is made up of ribose sugar. DNA has thymine as one of the two pyrimidines while mRNA has uracil as its pyrimidines base. DNA is present in the nucleus while mRNA diffuses into the cytoplasm after synthesis. DNA is double stranded while mRNA is single stranded.

Hope this is helped ;)
