The correct option is B.
Plate tectonic is a theory in science, which describes the movement of different sizes of plates in the earth's lithosphere. Plate tectonic is responsible for the formation of mountains, build up of earthquake, formation of new oceans, etc. For scientists to determine the time that plate tectonic started on earth, they used the method of radiometric dating. Radiometric dating employs the used of radioactive substance to determine the ages of plates that move in the earth's lithosphere.

Luden [163]
The correct answer is the final option - sickle cell disease and malaria are both potentially lethal diseases. 
The other options are incorrect because sickle cell disease is an inherited disease, but malaria is not - it is an infectious disease. However, both of these disease are quite dangerous, and may have severe consequences (such as death) if they are not properly treated.

Explain the properties of RNA
masya89 [10]

Answer:

RNA forms in the nucleolus, and then moves to specialized regions of the cytoplasm depending on the type of RNA formed.

RNA, containing a ribose sugar, is more reactive than DNA and is not stable in alkaline conditions. RNA’s larger helical grooves mean it is more easily subject to attack by enzymes.

RNA strands are continually made, broken down and reused.

RNA is more resistant to damage from UV light than DNA.

RNA’s mutation rate is relatively higher.

Unusual bases may be present.

The number of RNA may differ from cell to cell.

Rate of renaturation after melting is quick.

RNA is more versatile than DNA, capable of performing numerous, diverse tasks in an organism.

RNA or ribonucleic acid is a polymer of nucleotides which is made up of a ribose sugar, a phosphate, and bases such as adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil.

It is a polymeric molecule essential in various biological roles in coding, decoding, regulation, and expression of genes.

What is the relationship between biodiversity and number of populations?
noname [10]
Biodiversity increases as the number of populations grow, because a greater population generally means a more diverse one.

However, this is not always true, so I'm not sure what answer they're looking for.
