The right answer is D. none of above.

Light can be defined as a wave and also as packets of energy: particles called photons. The energy increases when the frequency increases that is to say that one goes towards the ultraviolet (UV).

The sun emits its maximum wavelengths between 0.3μm and 25μm.

The atmosphere, the oceans and the surface of the continents absorb solar radiation (short wavelengths: 0.2 to 4 micrometers). This has the effect of increasing their temperature. But any body brought to a certain temperature emits radiations in turn. The wavelength of these radiations depends on the temperature of the emitting surface. Thus, the Earth emits infrared radiation to space; it represents a loss of energy for the Earth.

On earth 70-85% of the radiation is absorbed, 15-30% is reflected. and the energy that has been absorbed is emitted as infrared rays.

In contrast to growing microtubules, shrinking microtubules ............. Group of answer choices have strong lateral interactio
Otrada [13]

Answer:

have curved protofilaments at their plus ends

Explanation:

Microtubules are polymers of tubulin proteins that function as the cytoskeleton of eukaryotic cells. Microtubules are dynamic structures that can grow and shrink at a rapid rate. During this process, tubulin subunits can associate and dissociate at the plus end of the protofilament. Tubulin subunits bind to two GTP molecules, one of which is hydrolyzed to GDP after assembly. When microtubules are unstable, protofilaments curl outwards because GDP-bound tubulin has a weak affinity (thereby curving it) and disassemble. The dynamic stability of microtubules is regulated by a feedback loop: when microtubules shrink, free tubulin concentration increases and microtubules start to grow. As microtubules grow, free tubulin concentration decreases and the rate of GTP-tubulin addition also decreases.

Which best matches the description with the genetic material?
Ulleksa [173]
DNA is the main type of genetic material found in a cell. In addition, it is found in the nucleus of the cell, so (D) is correct. DNA in the nucleus is used in replication (through mitosis and meiosis) via daughter cells to continue cell growth.
