The troposphere is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere, and is also where nearly all weather conditions take place. It contains approximately 75% of the atmosphere's massand 99% of the total mass of water vapor and aerosols.[2] The average height of the troposphere are 18 km (11 mi; 59,000 ft) in the tropics, 17 km (11 mi; 56,000 ft) in the middle latitudes, and 6 km (3.7 mi; 20,000 ft) in the polar regions in winter.

The lowest part of the troposphere, where friction with the Earth's surface influences air flow, is the planetary boundary layer. This layer is typically a few hundred meters to 2 km (1.2 mi; 6,600 ft) deep depending on the landform and time of day. Atop the troposphere is the tropopause, which is the border between the troposphere and stratosphere. The tropopause is an inversion layer, where the air temperature ceases to decrease with height and remains constant through its thickness.[3]

The word troposphere is derived from the Greek tropos (meaning "turn, turn toward, change") and sphere (as in the Earth), reflecting the fact that rotational turbulentmixing plays an important role in the troposphere's structure and behaviour. Most of the phenomena associated with day-to-day weather occur in the troposphere.

A question of fact would be:

Answer:

  A) does overeating cause obesity?

Explanation:

Terms in all of these questions often have fuzzy definitions, so it is often a matter of judgment whether a particular condition is or is not included in the discussion.

The question most likely to be considered a question of fact is ...

  A) does overeating cause obesity?

__

"Overeating" and "obesity" can be objectively defined, even if the causal relationship is less easy to establish.

"Beautiful" is usually a matter of opinion, and cannot be considered a matter of fact.

"Equal opportunities" is exceptionally difficult to define considering the range of personalities and abilities that may be offered a given opportunity. This is another term that is more a matter of opinion than of fact. Whether something "should" or "should not" be provided is, likewise, a matter of opinion (or personal philosophy or religion).

"Bad habit" is another descriptor that is difficult to say is a matter of fact. Whether something is "good" or "bad" depends on the goal, and the effect of procrastination depends on the circumstances.

100 points! This is for National Security...
kherson [118]
1 and 3 are correct, this is due to the fact that modern technology is constantly growing and other developed nations are feeling threatened or inferior when another developed nation grows further ahead. National security has also grown global, just the threat of a foreign country developing nuclear capability is enough for another country to launch missle strikes or other acts in order to quell the threat of another nuclear capable country. 2 is not correct because industrial strategies are being shared throughout the world constantly and the safety of a country no longer stands by their standing army or navy, but by the threat of nuclear capability or a possibility of retaliation through explosive nature. Even today, most wars are done through the army holding down a line, and the navy/airforce launching long ranged missile attacks of various nature.

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The mRNA which is read by the ribosome dictates the correct arrangement  of amino acids through particular tRNA.

Explanation:

The luciferase mRNA is moved to its similar protein in the ribosome which is seen in the cytoplasm of the cell.

The chain of ribosome sits on the mRNA and forms a structure In the cytoplasm,called a polysome. this is useful in the fast synthesis of protein. The three-nucleotide genetic code in the mRNA which is being studied by the ribosome orders the right placement  of amino acids through particular tRNA.
