Nuclear power plants use the energy originating from the splitting or uranium atoms to produce steam, which in turn drives a turbine generator.
The main problem with this form of energy production is the byproduct from the nuclear reactors known as radioactive waste. Although it is no longer efficient for the energy production, this waste is still radiating large amounts of heat and radiation. Thus, they are very hazardous as they are fatal on direct exposure and can contaminate the environment.
Due to the extremely long half-life, long term storage for this waste is extremely problematic. However, if the decay rates were much faster, then the half-life would also be much shorter. Thus, short term storage solutions could be found.
Excepting the nuclear waste and the potential accidents (which are minimized in modern plants), nuclear energy does not immediately affect the climate on earth. With short half-lives, nuclear energy would perhaps become more popular than solar or wind energy as it is more reliable and efficient.
For example: GGATACCTAGGTAAT
Insertion: GGAT<u>G</u>ACCTAGGTAAT
a nucleotide that was not present before is inserted into the original sequence
Substitution: <u>C</u>GATACCTAGGTAAT
the first nucleotide was substituted in for another (C for G)
Frameshift (basically a insertion or deletion, we'll try deletion here): GATACCTAGGTAAT
the first nucleotide was deleted, causing the reading frame to be shifted (instead of GGA as the first codon, we have GAT)
Answer:
Enzyme catalase is affected by high temperatures
Explanation:
Enzymes are organic catalysts which are protein in nature therefore they are sensitive to changes in temperature. Most enzymes have an optimum range of temperature between 35-40°c.
As temperature is increased, the optimum temperature is reached where the rate of reaction is maximum. When beef liver is boiled, hydrogen peroxide is not broken down because higher temperatures denature enzymes making them non effective.
Yes the Lawn mower is an example of a Compound machine
Answer:
C) It Rises
Explanation:
The Sun heats up a field and the air above it rises in a thermal.
(Better explaination)-the air is less dense than the surrounding matter and the hot air floats upward.( Aka Rises)
