Answer: Option (A)

Explanation:

Run off occurs when there is a rapid flow of water over an inclined or gently sloping area. The sediments are often carried by the runoff water and are transported to some other place. Surface water Run off also plays an important role in the earth's water cycle, as it carries the water along with sediments to the streams and channels.

Thus, runoff is the actual source for the sediments and other particles to be transported in flowing water.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

What color of visible light has the least percentage of absorption by chlorophyll A?
solmaris [256]
As shown in detail in the absorption spectra, chlorophyll absorbs light in the red (long wavelength) and the blue (short wavelength) regions of the visible light spectrum. Green light is not absorbed but reflected, making the plant appear green

If a corn plant was heterozygous for kernel color and seed shape, what would be the genotype of the plant?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

<em>The genotype of the plant will be PpSs and the phenotype will be purple colour and smooth shaped. </em>

Explanation:

Considering the description in the question, we know that purple colour is dominant over the yellow colour and smooth shape is dominant over the wrinkled shape.

A homozygous trait can be described as a trait which arises due to the same alleles of a gene. A heterozygous trait arises when both the alleles of a gene are different. In such a case, one allele will be dominant over the other one and the phenotype of the dominant allele will be seen in the plant. As purple colour and smooth shape are dominant traits, hence they will be seen in the heterozygous plant.

Thymine in DNA occurs as the result of thymidylate synthase creating _______, which then undergoes _______ to _______, then to _
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Thymine in DNA occurs as the result of thymidylate synthase creating deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP), which then undergoes phosphorylation to deoxythymidine diphosphate (dTDP), then to Deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP), and incorporated into DNA by the DNA polymerase (DNA pol). Thymine in tRNA arises post-transcriptionally, by S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methylation of a uridine 5'-monophosphate (UMP) residue in RNA.

Explanation:

Thymidylate synthase is an enzyme involved in <em>de novo</em> DNA synthesis. This enzyme (thymidylate synthase) catalyzes the transfer of the one-carbon group from 5,10-methylene-tetrahydrofolate (5,10-CH2-THF) to deoxyuridine monophosphate (dUMP) and subsequent methylation to produce deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP), which is then phosphorylated to deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP) by kinases and incorporated into DNA. On the other hand, specific tRNA methylases catalyze the methylation of transference RNA (tRNA) by using S-adenosylmethionine as a methyl donor. Since tRNA methylation is a post-transcriptional modification, this chemical reaction is considered an epitranscriptomic modification on the RNA molecule.

GarryVolchara [31]
<span>Sugar is carbohydrates, fats are lipids, amino acids are proteins, and nucleotides are nucleic acid. They're all about the same healthiness because everyone needs all four for their diet. Carbohydrates give us energy, lipids provide energy, protein builds our structure, and nucleic acid stores our genetic information.</span>
