Answer: A>Greenhouse gases interact with infrared photons and reflect them back to Earth’s surface.

Explanation:

The earth naturally maintains the heat energy balance by absorbing a sufficient amount of sunlight energy by the terrestrial land and then reverting back the excess sunlight energy back to the space. The increase in abundance of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere results in absorption of sunlight energy which contains infrared photons this is responsible for increasing the global temperature levels hence, responsible for global warming. These infrared photons are reflected to the earth surface instead of sending back to the space. This is responsible for disturbing the heat balance.

Enzyme found in retroviruses that produce dna from an rna template. True or False
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

<h2>True</h2>

Explanation:

1 .Reverse transcriptase (RT) is an RNA-dependent DNA polymerase enzyme which makes DNA from RNA..  

2. RT makes double-stranded DNA molecules from ssRNA ( single stranded RNA) molecule using it as a template.

3. Retroviruses like  HIV contain Reverse transcpritase (RT) enzyme, which uses the RNA molecule as template and make DNA from it and after that, virus make multiple copies of itself.

4. Reverse transcriptase enzyme make DNA reverse transcrptionally from RNA the process known as RNA dependent DNA polymerase.

5. It was  first discovered in retroviruses.
