It is important the entire scientific community uses the metric system rather than each country having its own system because when scientist are comparing or sharing results they wont have to do extra steps of converting to different measurements it will just be the same and less confusing.
Explanation:
Answer:
There are two types of cell, prokaryotic (bacteria) and eukaryotic (animal, plant, fungi and protoctista (unicellular organisms)). Prokaryotes have no nucleolus – the DNA is in the cytoplasm, and it can from small circular strands of DNA called plasmids. Eukaryotic cells all have their DNA enclosed in a nucleus.
Explanation:
As the bear enters hibernation, its metabolic processes such as body temperature, heart rate, and respiratory rate are reduced. But bears do not lower the body temperature as much as once thought. Their hibernation temperature is around 88 degrees and waking temperature is 100 degrees F. This relatively high sleeping temperature allows bears to become fully alert if aroused, perhaps to enable the bear to protect itself from predators and other dangers without unnecessarily taxing their energy reserves. Over the course of a hibernating season it is thought that bears use approximately 4 thousand calories a day, which results in a weight loss of about 20 percent of it body weight by spring.
Answer:
This question is incomplete
Explanation:
This question is incomplete because of the absence of the chart referred to in the question. However, what appears to be the case is that the three nitrogenous bases represent codons (and the missing chart is the codon chart). The mutation that has the potential to cause more damage will be the one that would change the amino acid formed from the codon change.
A. CAU to CAC: The codons CAU and CAC both form the amino acid histidine and thus is not expected to cause a major damage.
B. UGU to UGC: The codons UGU and UGC both form the amino acid cysteine and thus is not expected to cause a major damage.
C. UCU to UUU: <u>Codon UCU forms the amino acid serine while the codon UUU forms the amino acid phenylalanine</u>. Thus, this eventual change in the amino acid formed has the potential to cause a major damage and thus option C is the correct option.
NOTE that a codon is a sequence of three DNA/RNA nucleotides that corresponds to a single amino acid.
