The mass of a tree is primarily carbon. The carbon comes from carbon dioxide used during photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants convert the sun's energy into chemical energy which is captured within the bonds of carbon molecules built from atmospheric carbon dioxide and water.

What determinant of mean arterial pressure would be directly affected by lasix, and would this typically raise or lower mr. unde
Marysya12 [62]
<span>By definition, the two determinants of mean arterial pressure are cardiac output and total peripheral resistance. It has been shown that Lasix decreases cardiac output and total peripheral resistance. Diuretics increase urine production, so it will lower mean arterial pressure.</span>

What theory dramatically improved geologist's ability to predict where certain ore deposits were formed? Select one:
mrs_skeptik [129]

Plate tectonics is referred to a geology theory, which explains the movement of earth’s lithosphere.  This theory suggests that the earth’s lithosphere is made up of many plates, and these plates move on each other causing collision of the plates or sometimes separation of the landmasses.  

Sometimes, the movements of the plate occur in such a way that the surface of the earth is buried underground. Even in normal circumstance, some of the surface materials buried underground. So, by studying the type of things existed on the surface in past, one can predict the abundance of a specific substance underground.  

Hence, the correct answer is option b. – Plate tectonics.

Ivan

Eukaryotic transcripts (mRNA) have to undergo capping and splicing before it can be translated.

<h3>RNA processing:</h3>

1. An RNA transcript is first produced in a eukaryotic cell as a pre-mRNA, which needs to be converted into a messenger RNA (mRNA).

2. The RNA transcript is given a 5' cap at the start and a 3' poly-A tail at the end.

3. The process of splicing involves cutting out some RNA transcript segments (introns), then joining the remaining segments (exons) back together.

4. Some genes have the ability to alternate splices, which produces various mature mRNA molecules from the same beginning transcript.

The introns not only do not contain the information necessary to construct a protein, but they also need to be cut off in order for the mRNA to create a protein with the correct sequence. An mRNA with extra "junk" in it will be created if the spliceosome fails to remove an intron, and the translation process will result in the production of the incorrect protein.
