Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

Earthquake often refers to the sudden shaking of the ground surface due to the propagation of seismic waves below the surface of the earth. These waves carry energy from the focus towards the surface. Focus is the point from where an earthquake originates.

An earthquake can cause a tremendous effect on the properties as well as lives, depending upon its magnitude. It leads to the collapsing of buildings and houses. It also causes fire due to the breaking of the electrical lines and tearing of the gas pipelines. High magnitude earthquakes also breaks down the dams that lead to extensive flooding, thereby making the situation more catastrophic. A large number of lives and properties are affected.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

Which best describes the outcome of DNA replication?
defon

Answer: The correct answer is -

The new DNA molecule consists of one new strand and one old strand of DNA.

DNA replication is a process of formation of two molecules of DNA from a single DNA molecule (which is double stranded).

In this process, the two DNA strands of the original DNA are first separated so that the template strands are exposed.

Using the template strands, enzyme DNA polymerase adds nucleotides (in the direction 5' to 3') in a complementary manner-

For adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine in the template strand, thymine adenine, cytosine, and guanine are added respectively.

The new DNA molecule consists of one new strand and one old strand of DNA. That is why, it is also called semiconservative replication.

Thus, option third is the right answer.

Sweat acts as a cooling agent on the body because of water high heat of vaporization or high specific heat capacity?
STatiana [176]

Explanation:

Large amounts of heat are needed to evaporate water, because H-bonds need to be broken. Sweating is an example of using water as d coolant. As the sweat evaporates it pulls heat away from the body. Application 'Water's thermal properties, its high specific heat, means that it can cool us.

Describe the relationship between organic compounds, nucleotides, RNA, and a universal genetic code.
Juliette [100K]
The first organic compounds may have been nucleotides and make up nucleotides. Nucleotides bond together to form RNA or DNA. RNA and DNA make up genetic codes. So all of these make up each other in a sort of chain or order.
