Newton's first law of motion states that when there is no net external force, an object will remain at rest or travel with a constant velocity. 
When an object is moving, there is a force of friction resisting the motion, and slowing it down. To maintain a constant velocity, a person must push with a force equal to that of friction, to counteract the frictional force. 
Since the pushing force cancels the friction force out, there is no net external force, and so the object moves at a constant velocity

Hope I helped! xx

The energy required to run the Calvin cycle reactions of photosynthesis comes from which two substances produced during the ligh
Lelu [443]

Answer:

a. ATP and NADPH

Explanation:

Light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis include splitting of water in the presence of sunlight and release of electrons. The electrons move from the reaction center of the PS-II via electron carriers to the PS-I. From the reaction center of PS-I, the electrons finally reach NADP reductase and reduce NADP into NADPH.

During this electron transfer via electron carriers, a proton concentration gradient is generated across the thylakoid membrane. The energy of this gradient is used to drive ATP synthesis. ATP and NADPH formed during the light-dependent phase of photosynthesis are then used during the reactions of the Calvin cycle.

Explain the difference between each of the following substitution mutations:
pentagon [3]

Answer: silent mutation: a nucleotide base in a codon is replaced with a different base BUT the resulting amino acid isn’t affected.

Missense mutation: similar to a silent mutation, the only difference is that the switch of the nucleotide DOES result in a DIFFERENT amino acid

Nonsense mutation: a nucleotide base is changed, but that change results in a premature stop of translation

(Remember that after transcription, you are left with a strand of mRNA that Is then translated into a protein. The mRNA is read in increments of three nucleotide bases (A,U,G, or C) which is called a codon. That codon makes a single amino acid, and a strand of amino acids makes a protein)

What the heck is biology
inessss [21]

Answer:

Biology is the scientific study of life. It is a natural science with a broad scope but has several unifying themes that tie it together as a single, coherent field. For instance, all organisms are made up of cells that process hereditary information encoded in genes, which can be transmitted to future generations. Another major theme is evolution, which explains the unity and diversity of life.

A travel agency wants people to go on a tour of a mountain region with many glaciers. Write a paragraph for a travel brochure de
Minchanka [31]

The travel to the galciers is something one can never forget. The aura of the place along with the beauty that one gets to notice is so enriching to entice one to stay there forever. The glaciers are one of the many natural wonders our world has to offer. Formed because of the accumulation of the snow year after year, these glaciers are present in many sizes. Besides, the movement of the glaciers, such as the glacial erosion and deposition leads to the formation of many other attractive features, such as the corries, pyramidal peaks, truncated spurs, and hanging valleys. You must definitely visit these places to give your soul this exciting experience.
