Um i going to just explain random stuff or things however you wanna say it. When a cell needs to be duplicated DNA strands are tightly coiled into chromosomes.Genes are certain stretches of DNA that code for a certain protein with a specific bodily function. On a chromosome, the location of the gene is called a locus. DNA contains all the genetic materiel that decides a person's traits, such as Hair color, Eye color, and more. Tha DnA also passes on traits from the parent to the offspring, which is why children always have common traits with their parents. Genes carry the information needed to pass on these traits. In summary, DNa, genes, and chromosomes are very similar in their composition, since genes are stretches of DNA. Their functions are the same in the sense that they are all vital in passing on traits from the parent to the child, and therefore in determining the physical traits of the offspring.

Which was not used in support of the continental drift hypothesis? fossil evidence coastline fit of South America and Africa anc
aniked [119]

Answer:

composition of meteorites

Explanation:

The continental drift theory has been based upon several evidence. The shape and perfect fit of South America and Africa is one of those evidence. The fossil records are another very strong evidence, as there are fossils of the same species on different continents that are not connected to each other in the present, and in nature is practically impossible to have the same species in different continents. The evidence about the climate also suggests that the continents have been moving, as there are remains of glaciers at places that nowadays are deserts and savannas. The meteorites are not one of the evidence though, and their composition doesn't have anything to offer in this tehory, as their composition is not related to the Earth and the processes on it.

charle [14.2K]
Yes, because if you're close to the sea then you will be in a warmer climate. and Ocean currents affect climate in a way similar to winds. Ocean currents move water around the ocean. Warm water currents are currents that move water away from the equator, and cold water currents are currents that move water away from the poles.
Places that are near warm water currents will have a warmer climate.Places that are near cold water currents will have a colder climate.

nordsb [41]

Answer:

option c

Explanation:

A natural blind spot also called the optic disc in the eyes occurs where the blood vessels and axons of the ganglion cells leave to form the optic nerve. it is so called because there are no receptors (rods and cones) in this part of the retina. Artificial blind spots can also be formed when something prevents light from getting to the photoreceptors which are the rods and the cones.
