Body surface area is  measure of surface area of the human body. It is measured in m^2.

Answer:

A. light penetration

Explanation:

Water clarity refers to how clear a water is, and it is a measure of how far/deep light can penetrate into such a water body. A water that is not clear is said to be TURBID. Several factors affect the clarity of a water body and they include;

- Phytoplankton, which refers to floating algae on the water body. An accumulated growth of phytoplankton can affect the penetration of light into the water, hence, making the water unclear.

- Suspended sediments can also block the penetration of light into the water, reducing water clarity.

- Nutrients in form of fertilizer or waste materials can also make water unclear.

Therefore, LIGHT PENETRATION DOES NOT IMPACT WATER CLARITY, rather it is dependent on water clarity.

yKpoI14uk [10]

In order for a cell to create a protein, DNA must first be transcribed into mRNA. After the mRNA leaves the nucleus, it can be translated at a ribosome. Here, mRNA forms base pairs with a tRNA, which carries a specific amino acid. The amino acids form a long chain that makes a protein.

What do you think of dystopian societies?
Savatey [412]

Answer:

I am assuming you want my personal opinion.

theyre quite terrifying to think about. Like the fall of humanity is scary. to think the offspring i have created or the people i have known have gone from decent people to incredibly corrupt. In "1984" by george orwell, the dystopian society he has created horrfies me. The idea that even your thoughts are monitered disrupts your self expression and how you interact with the world. To live in a world where you cannot do anything but basic busy work seems tactful. I bvelieve people should be happy and never fear a hugher authority or a "system". Dystopian societies are exciting to read about but to really think deeply and complexly about them is horrifying.
