Approximately what percentage of sunlight pierces the rainforest canopy?

Biology
1 answer:
ohaa [14]3 years ago
3 0
ONLY 1 PERCENT of sunlight pierces the rain forest canopy. This is because in a rain forest the sunlight is blocked by the canopies formed by the densely growing trees and only a very small portion of sunlight reaches the surface of the rain forest. Thus, very little vegetation is found on the ground level of a rainforest.

Proteins and nucleic acids both play vital roles in the structure and function of cells.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Part A: Proteins are made from amino acid monomers. There are 20 different types of amino acids which make up all the proteins of the body. The amino acids are made up of a carbon atom which is joined to an amino group, a carboxyl group and a variant group, known as R. Nucleic acids are made up of 5 carbon sugar, phosphate group and nitrogenous bases.  Hence, nucleic acids are made up of nucleotides.

Part B: Protiens are important molecule which carry out various functions of the body. They are involved in regulation of various body process. Some proteins are involved in the transportation of various molecules. Other type of proteins are involved in various immune functions and hence protect the body. For example, antibodies are proteins which defend the body against pathogens.

Nucleic acids are involved in the storing and expressing of genetic information. They also direct the body for protein synthesis.
