Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

A saturated fatty acid is a type of fatty acid that contains single bonds and has no carbon carbon double bonds.

The carbon carbon double bond found in the saturated fatty acids are broken down and hydrogen atoms gets attached to the carbon atom by single bonds.

During the ______ _________ of an action potential, voltage-gated potassium channels are open and the voltage-gated sodium chann
baherus [9]

Answer:

Repolarization

Explanation:

Complete repolarization is achieved by the sodium pump. This actively pumps all the Na+ ti the outside and all the K+ to the inside. The pump requires energy in the form of ATP and is inhibited by metabolic poisons. Entry of Na+ is immediately followed by an increase in the permeability of the membrane to K+. These diffuse rapidly to the outside due to the concentration gradient. Being positively charged, the K+ reverses the polarity of the membrane making the outside positive.

In deducing the evolutionary relationships among dogs, do you think it would be better to use a sequence that is neutral or one
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

a neutral marker

Explanation:

A gene polymorphism can be defined as the existence of two or more variants of the same gene (i.e., alleles). A polymorphism may be a difference of one nucleotide base in DNA (single nucleotide polymorphisms, SNPs) or indels (i.e., insertions and deletions). A gene under selection will have many polymorphisms in its sequence which may lead to convergence and disproportionate divergence among sequences, and thereby will be uninformative to trace the evolutionary history among individuals within a species, population, etc. Conversely, neutral molecular markers exhibit fewer nucleotide differences, it is for that reason that they are commonly used to determine genetic population structure among individuals.

Not only does sediment spread horizontality and from youngest (top) to oldest (bottom), it also continues to spread flat in all
Mama L [17]

Answer:

law of superposition

Explanation:

The law of superposition in geology suggests that the sediments are spreading out in a horizontal manner, flat, in all directions, until there's some natural feature that will stop them. It also suggests that the sediments are arranged vertically from the oldest being at the bottom, and the youngest layers being on the top.

Even though this is not always the case in nature, still there are lot of examples that support the law of superposition. When the sediments are aligned in that manner, the geologists find it very helpful and easy to determine the relative age of the layers, as well as the relative age of the fossils that are found in them.

What do we know about the digestive system of an owl based upon the pellets ?
