How is laying eggs on land an evolutionary advantage for sea turtles and capelin

1. Laying eggs on land reduces the chances of the eggs being predated on by predators in the seas and oceans.  

2. Temperatures are critical in the development of the yolk into an embryo and full turtle. Temperatures even determine the sex of the developing turtles. Land heats up more than water hence promotes faster development hence increases the survival of the offsprings.

slega [8]

Answer: Four amino acids.

Explanation:

RNA (ribonucleic acid) and DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) are polymers made up of long chains of nucleotides. Thus, a nucleotide is the basic building block of nucleic acids and consists of a sugar molecule (ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA) linked to a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. <u>The nitrogenous bases can be Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G) or Uracil (U) replacing T in RNA</u>. DNA is the molecule that stores the genetic information to synthesize polypeptides or proteins (set of amino acids). When proteins need to be created, DNA is transcribed into RNA and this RNA is translated in ribosomes to create polypeptides.

Complementarity is the ability to combine with their complement. A and T (or U) are complementary, while C and G are complementary to each other. Complementarity is the principle of replication and transcription, because it is a propery of both DNA and RNA sequences. Their the nucleotide bases at each position of the sequences are complementary, allowing cells to copy information.

Nucleotides in RNA are grouped into codons, which consist of groups of 3 nucleotides where each codon codes for an amino acid. Therefore, <u>the sequence of bases in nucleic acids determines which protein will be synthesized</u>. Protein synthesis begins with a start codon (AUG, which codes for the amino acid methionine) and ends with a stop codon (UGA, UAG and UAA). So, if there are 15 nucleotides, there are 15 bases. Since they are grouped in groups of 3, we will have a polypeptide of 4 amino acids.

<u>3 nucleotides form a codon, so 12 nucleotides form 4 codons giving 4 amino acids. The last codon, is formed by the last 3 nucleotides and form the stop codon that stop protein synthesis</u>.

Moving molecules from low to high
Kay [80]

Answer:

Active transport

Explanation:

Diffusion is when particles (like perfume) spread out everywhere from an area where there is a lot of it to where there is a little to none of it. Active transport is the opposite. A cell for example would use it's own energy to absorb nutrients when it already has quite a lot. Naturally diffusion would make the particles or nutrients go out of the cell because there is a lot of it inside the cell not outside, so active transport is used to absorb as much as the cell can from around it, even when it is full.
