Answer: False

Explanation:

The stratosphere is the layer of the atmosphere which shields the earth from the harmful incident rays like infrared and ultraviolet radiations. It consist of ozone layer near the altitude of 25 kilometers. The ozone molecules present in the stratosphere absorb the high energy UV rays which are capable of warming the inner atmospheric layers of the earth, may cause damage to the genetic material of the organisms and skin problems in humans.

On the basis of the above explanation, statement The thermosphere protects the Earth from UV radiation coming from the Sun is false.

How can scientific knowledge impact a decision about treating a disease outbreak?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

2. Second is the corrective action. This step focuses solely on formulating medicine to treat the disease. Once again scientific knowledge is used in creating those medicines.

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Neurons have stable, relatively unchanging internal environments.

Explanation:

Neurons or nerve cells is the structural and functional unit of the nervous system. Neurons consists of the dendrites, axon, cell body and different cell organelles.

The neurons have mitochondria that meets the high ATP requirement and and consume more oxygen. The network of rough endoplasmic reticulum and ribosomes produce large number of proteins in neuron. The internal environment is never stable and gets changed as the nerve impulse transmission occur through the neuron. The membrane potential of the neuron gets changed and changes its internal environment.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

Korolek [52]

Answer: Ok So A short tandem repeat is a microsatellite with repeat units that are 2 to 7 base pairs in length, with the number of repeats varying among individuals, making STRs effective for human identification purposes.STRs are extremely useful in applications such as the construction of genetic maps (49), gene location, genetic linkage analysis, identification of individuals, paternity testing, as well as disease diagnosis 50., 51.. STR analysis has also been employed in population genetics.
