Suppose a friend says that we don't need to worry about the rising temperatures associated with global climate change. Her claim

is that increased temperatures will make planktonic algae grow faster and that carbon dioxide (CO₂) will be removed from the atmosphere faster. According to her, this carbon will be buried at the bottom of the ocean in calcium carbonate shells. As a result, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will decrease and global warming will decline. A) Primary producers usually grow faster when CO₂ concentration increases, but to date they have not grown fast enough to make CO₂ levels drop.B) Primary producers usually grow slower when CO₂ concentration increases, so to date they can't make CO₂ levels drop.C) Primary producers grow fast enough to make CO₂ levels drop even today.D) Primary producers don't remove CO₂ from the atmosphere.

Answer:

Option-A

Explanation:

In the given question, the person predicts that if CO₂ level in the atmosphere will be increased then the phytoplanktons will grow more and the atmospheric carbon will be absorbed and will be fixed.

This statement juts seem like assumptions and if we consider this as a hypothesis then the facts will not be in favour of this hypothesis.

In the present day, the CO₂ level has already increased but the plants are not been able to utilise the Carbon dioxide and reduce global warming as the carbon uses free carbon from the atmosphere only and not bound carbon.

Thus, Option-A is correct.

Describe the effect of amanitin on the maximum elongation rate for the wild-type and modified RNA polymerases
Scrat [10]

Answer:

The effect of amanitin on the maximum elongation rate for the wild-type and modified RNA polymerases is that it binds to the RNA polymerases, and reduces the process of translocation which is essential for RNA synthesis that is required for RNA polymerases elongation.

Explanation:

Amanitin is a peptide that is cyclic in nature. It is repelled by water thereby making it an hydrophobic peptide.

Amanitin is a toxic peptide that is found in Amanita ( a type of mushroom).

Alpha Amanitin in particular is the one that affects the elongation rate of RNA Polymerases in the body.

When Alpha Amanitin gets into the body system, it travels straight to the liver and due to its very strong affinity for RNA polymerases, it immediately attaches itself to them.

After the attachment, Alpha Amanitin, is disturbs the bridge helix found in RNA polymerase, preventing the hindering and slowing down the proces of translocation from happening.

Once translocation is hindered, RNA is no longer synthesized. Hence, the elongation of RNA polymerases is hindered and this results in severe illness in the body such as liver failure, cytolysis of the liver
