It is true that dead zones in waterways can occur as the result of fertilizer runoff. 
horrorfan [7]3 years ago

This statement is true.

Fertilizer runoff can cause an excess of nutrients in the water. The excess of nutrients can cause blooms of algae and phytoplankton. The growth of algae and phytoplankton is limited by the availability of the nutrients in the water, and with the influx of fertilizer they bloom uncontrollably. The bacteria that degrade these algae and phytoplankton can use all of the oxygen in the water while they degrade the dead organisms and create dead zones in the oceans.

Why is a cap added to mRNA, but not to tRNA or rRNA? Transfer RNA and rRNA exhibit complex structures with double stranded regio
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The 5' cap is added to the mRNA as a means of protection from being degraded by enzymes in the cellular environment. Additionally. it helps with binding to the ribosome and subsequently translating it into a protein.

Explanation:

Moreover, it's only Polymerase II that has the ability to add the 5' cap and rRNA & tRNA are not transcribed by Polymerase II, only the mRNA is.

rRNA and tRNA have stable 3-Dimensional structures that protects it from being degraded by enzymes.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

A cell has a defect in its receptor for growth factors, preventing growth factors from attaching to and signalling the cell. Bas
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

B. The cell will grow uncontrollably and continue to divide as long as it has food.

Cell growth is theeoretically stimulated by the binding of growth factors to their receptors using signaling pathways.

These pathways are regulated by proteins which are encoded for in the genes.

The gene that controls the regulation of these pathway when mutated produce malfunctioning signaling protein thus not allow for regulations of the cell cycle causing uncontrollable cell division. These mutated genes are called oncogenes.

The relative location of four genes on a chromosome can be mapped from the following data on crossover frequencies Genes B and D
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

3. CABD

Explanation:

The gene mapping refers to providing position to the genes on the chromosomes.  The first gene map was constructed by the Alfred Sturtevant on the basis of recombinant produces or recombination frequency which was calculated.

The gene mapping refers to providing position to the genes on the chromosomes.

In the given question to construct gene map:

1. Look for the highest recombination frequency that is 50% between the C and D.

2. Now look for second-highest value and place the gene accordingly.

3.Similarly, place the genes in the decreasing order of recombination frequency and this will result that the sequence of the genes is- CABD.

Thus, Option-3 is correct.
