Well, the atmosphere has various layers. One of which is the stratosphere. This stratosphere consists of a thin layer consisting of a gas. This is called the ozone layer. This ozone layer refracts the ultraviolent rays of the sun. Through this, the ultra violent rays are prevented from reaching the earth. If these ultra violent rays get to the earth, it can completely destroy all life on earth. It can lead to skin cancer and some other problems. The ozone layer in the atmosphere prevents this from happening. Through this, it protects the earth. Although, this ozone layer can be destroyed by CFC's, which are chloroflourocarbons. These gases cause the ozone layer to deplete. They also get trapped in the earth and cannot escape, causing the green house effect which leads to global warming, causing the melting of ice caps.

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

C. A-T rich; initiator

Explanation:

Replication origins have A-T rich DNA sequences that attract initiator proteins.

Replication origin is the DNA sequence where replication is initiated in a genome. The replication origin sequences is rich in adenine (A) and thymine (T) bases because it is easier to break the bonds between the bases compared to the bonds between guanine and cytosine. adenine (A) and thymine (T) bases have two bonds joining them as against three bonds between guanine and cytosine

The initiator proteins recognizes  DNA sequences in the replication origin and helps to initiate DNA replication.

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

B) binding of a molecule to a binding site affects the binding properties of another site on the protein.

Explanation:

In an allosteric interaction between a protein and a ligand, the ligand binds to a site in the protein. As a result, there is a change in the properties of other active sites on the protein. These active-site changes may or may not allow the protein to bind to other molecules. There is a change in the protein that affects the affinity of the active site for other molecules. The affinity on the active site increases if the protein binds to an activator and decreases if the protein binds to an inhibitor molecule.
