Answer:
In 1609, using this early version of the telescope, Galileo became the first person to record observations of the sky made with the help of a telescope. He soon made his first astronomical discovery.
Answer:
In a pinhole camera, light passes through the pinhole to project an upside-down image onto the back of the box, and in the human eye, light passes through the lens to project an upside-down image on the back of the retina
<h2>Answer:</h2>
Family of Synthetic Elements
<h2>Explanation:</h2>
In chemical Sciences a synthetic element is a chemical element that does not occur naturally on Earth, and it can only be created artificially in the laboratory. So far, 24 synthetic elements have been created in the laboratory and their atomic numbers lie from 95–118.
Answer:
It takes Earth longer to revolve around the sun than to rotate on its axis.
Explanation:
The vocabulary can be tricky in this question. It is important to remember that the term revolution refers to something moving around a fixed point. In this case, the earth is the object revolving around sun which is the fixed point in the frame of reference.
Now, the earth rotates at a constant speed around its axis. This is what causes the day/night cycle. The earth itself is spinning, therefore we use the term rotate.
Answer:
Transcription and RNA processing (splicing)
Explanation:
Although Howard is almost right, the DNA sequence does not precisely relate to the protein sequence. First of all, the DNA is transcribed to an primary mRNA molecule. Bur before the mRNA is ready to be translated into an amino acid sequence, it must be processed into a mature mRNA.
This includes adding a 3' poly A tail, and a 5' cap, and importantly for this question, splicing.
Splicing is the removal of non protein coding intermediate sequences called introns from the protein coding regions (exons) of a primary mRNA. This means that lots of the DNA sequence is not dictated by the final protein, as many of the intervening sequences have been removed by splicing.
