Answer:
In a research there are two variables independent and dependent variable. independent variable is defined as the variable which is controlled and changed in a scientific experiment and evaluate the effects on the dependent variable while the variable which are tested and measured in experiment are called dependent variable.
When antibiotic is sprayed at one side of the petri dish, the bacterial growth on that side will eventually decrease in comparison to other side.
So, the independent variable in this experiment will be antibiotic because it is used to understand the growth of bacteria by decreasing their numbers and the dependent variable in this experiment will be bacteria as they vary according to the change in independent variable that is antibiotic.
Let us go over the definitions and the functions of each term:
a) Gene is a bit vague but in general it means a part of DNA that encodes one protein. Genes are the building blocks of our genomes but not the answer to this question.
b)mRNA. This is correct. The name itself means messengerRNA and its role is to copy the genetic information in the nucleus and bring it outside to be translated into protein.
c) ATP is an important molecule in our metabolism; energy is stored in this molecule and then used. It has no relationship to the mechanisms concerning DNA.
d) Thymine is one of the 4 nucleotide bases that are found in DNA, the other three being guanine, cytosine and adenine. They are essential components of a nucleotide (building blocks of DNA and RNA) but again, they do not transfer information out of the nucleus.
Explanation:
Solar UV radiation. Australia experiences some of the highest levels of UV radiation in the world because we are close to the equator and have many clear, blue-sky days. The Earth's orbit also brings countries in the southern hemisphere (Australia included) closer to the sun in the summertime than countries in the northern hemisphere during summer.
Answer:
Bioarchaeology is a discipline that studies human skeletal remains in an archaeological investigation; while forensic anthropology refers to the study of human skeletal remains in a criminal case
Explanation:
Bioarchaeology is a discipline centered on the study of skeletal remains in order to obtain useful information about past societies/civilizations such as, for example, health conditions. On the other hand, forensic anthropology investigates human skeletal remains within a legal and/or criminal investigation. This information may result useful to identify a dead person, find the cause of death, and estimate time since death.
Similarities:
-Both disciplines have a strong biology background (especially in zoology)
-Both disciplines are focused on skeletal analysis
Differences:
-Bioarchaeology is associated with the anthropological study of human societies, while forensic anthropology associated with legal investigations
The answer is; D
The plasticity of rock in the mantle and the convection currents in the region are responsible for tectonic plate movements. The hot molten rock from deep in the mantle rise and is replaced by the cooler rock at the upper mantle. These convections are similar to those of water in a boiling pot. As the tectonic plates move (as they are dragged by these convections) and collide, earthquakes are caused. In addition, at subductions zones (where two plates collide) there occurs high volcanic activity.
