<u>Answer</u>: Large collection of stars, gas, and dust held together by gravity.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The name <em>galaxy</em> has been derived from the word <em>galaxies</em> which is a Greek word meaning milky.
  • In simple words a galaxy is a collection of a large number of stars, however, to be more precise <em>a galaxy is a gravity-bound collection of stars, dust, gas, dark matter and stellar remnants. </em>

Which describes a pathway that tends to slow down a process?
vlada-n [284]

A pathway that tends to slow down a process is called a negative feedback loop.

<h3>What we know about these loops. </h3>
  • These loops function to reduce the rate a which a process occurs.
  • Being a feedback loop means that they take in stimuli from the environment of the cell in order to affect the rate of production of a compound.
  • A negative feedback loop will activate when the concentration of the compound being produced is too high.
  • In response, the negative loop will reduce the rate of production temporarily.

Therefore, we can confirm that a pathway that tends to slow down a process is called a negative feedback loop.

Please help, these questions on my hw are confusing to me.
Mariana [72]
10. before replication begins, the strands of DNA are separated and used as templates for the new strands. the replication process creates 2 identical double helixes, each has 1 new strand and 1 old one.

11. without dna replication, damaged cells could not be replaced/repaired and cells need dna, cells would become mutated without dna replication.

12. mutations are rare because dna polymerase proofreads the strands but if the process occurred incorrectly and was not corrected by the polymerase, the cell would become mutated and could be really harmful.

hope this helped!
