Answer:

b: many genes code for RNAs that function directly in the cell

Explanation:

<em>The central dogma</em> theory describes the basic framework for gene expression in living organisms. Genetic information from DNA is encoded or transcribed as RNA which then becomes translated as proteins.

The processes that take place for gene to be successfully expressed are;

  • Replication
  • Transcription
  • Translation

<em>Replication</em> is a process whereby DNA makes a copy of itself to be distributed in daughter cells during cell division.

<em>Transcription</em> is the process whereby genetic information in DNA is encoded as RNAs. The RNAs are short-lived as they are quickly utilized in protein synthesis or <em>translation </em>process.

Hence, the RNAs do not function directly in the cells but mere intermediaries in the synthesis of proteins.

<em>The correct option is b.</em>

In a species of snail, dark-shelled individuals are better hidden from bird predators in the shady forest, while light-shelled i
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

C. Disruptive Selection

Explanation:

Disruptive selection occurs when two extremes of continuous variation are favored more than intermediate traits.  

The extremes of continuous variation exhibited in this species of snail is the color of their shell which allows them to blend with the background of their habitat.  

The shady forest of the habitat makes the dark-shelled individuals to be better hidden from bird predators, while the light-shelled individuals are better hidden in well-lit brushy edge areas. This disruptive coloration exhibited by both individuals makes both individuals of this species of snail less vulnerable to predation.  

Both individuals of this species both extremities would naturally survive in this habitat as snails with intermediate extremities would be highly preyed on since there is no area of intermediate brightness in the habitat to make them invisible to predators

Need 11 facts about solar eclipse
SVEN [57.7K]

1-The longest a total solar eclipse can last is 7.5 minutes.

2-The width of the path of totality is usually about 160 km across and can sweep across an area of Earth's surface about 10,000 miles long.

3-Almost identical eclipses occur after 18 years and 11 days.

4-This period of 223 synodic months is called a saros.

5-Each year there are between 2 and 5 solar eclipses.

6-The total solar eclipse, when the Moon completely obscures the Sun and leaves only the faint solar corona, is known as a Totality.

7-Total solar eclipses are rare, happening only once every 18 months.

8-Total solar eclipses produce harmful rays that can cause blindness.

9-If any planets are in the sky at the time of a total solar eclipse, they can be seen as points of light.

10-During a total solar eclipse, conditions in the path of totality can change quickly. Air temperatures drop and the immediate area becomes dark.

11- A solar eclipse can only occur when the Moon is close enough to the ecliptic plane during a new moon

soil. Swamps, marshes, and other wetland areas help to control flooding because they naturally hold water. Wetland regeneration
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
Restoring farmlands to wetlands consists of a lot of pro and cons. Firstly, they should consider that wetlands will greatly filter carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and reduce greenhouse gases. Wetlands restoration would probably affect the lives of the nearby human residents negatively. This is due to the fact that wetlands provides an optimal habitat to wild animals especially dangerous carnivores like alligators. The regeneration project will expand the habitats of animals, and clean the water system but it will remove the nutrients from the soil.
