What factors affect how organisms are distributed in the ocean?

Biology

I'm pretty sure these include light availability, oxygen levels, water movement, salinity, density and pH. These conditions often vary from habitat to habitat and will either support or limit the life processes of the marine organisms living there.

Hopefully that's right.

What role does the MutL protein play in DNA repair? (5 POINTS) It performs a proofreading function, similar to DNA polymerase, a
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

It recognizes and binds to a pair of "mismatched" nucleotides, preventing their translation.

Explanation:

Mut L protein is involved in mismatch DNA repair. MutL protein is complexed with MutS protein and the MutL-MutS complex recognizes all the mismatched base pairs present in the newly formed DNA strand. The complex can not recognize the "C-C" pairs. MutH protein joins the complex.

The MutH protein also has a site-specific endonuclease activity and cleaves the unmethylated DNA strand towards the 5' end of the guanine base in the GATC sequence to mark the strand for DNA repair. In this way, MutL protein, along with MutS and MutH proteins mark the mismatched DNA bases for repair so that they are not translated into a faulty protein.

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. <em>Philippine plate converging with the Pacific plate, forming Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean</em>

Explanation:

When two oceanic plates collide, it occurs oceanic convergence. The thicker and older plate subduces under the other plate, and at this point, it starts the volcanic activity. As the thicker plate descends, it is heated and melted and its materials are incorporated into the mantle. The fast subduction originates magma that ascends to the surface by crevices. This makes place to the formation of grouped volcanic islands, the island arches. Subduction zones coincide with deep-sea trenches or depressions in the ocean bed. The volcanic islands are arranged in a circumference arch shape, which is bordered by a fossa. Most of these are located in the western Pacific, where the pacific crust is older and thicker, and hence it submerges easier in the mantle.

The Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean are examples of these volcanic islands.

What heppens to blood after a person dies? How does this impact the appearance of the body?
bija089 [108]

Answer: It is no longer circulated throughout the body supplying oxygenated blood. The un-oxygenated blood turns blue which makes the body look “dusky”. Since it is no longer circulating, the blood pools in the lowest part of the body making these areas looked dark or bruised. (If the person was laying on their back, the blood would pool on the backside of the body)

Explanation:

When a person dies, the heart stops circulating blood and the lungs stop oxygenating the recirculated blood. The blood turns blue and pools in lowest place.
