Why does DNA need to be copied into mRNA?
larisa86 [58]

mRNA will serve as reference book that contains information as the DNA and its sequence is complementary to the DNA template.

The transfer of information in a DNA strand to a new molecule of messenger RNA is known as transcription. Thus, the process of transcription is carried out by an enzyme called RNA polymerase and a number of accessory proteins called transcription factors. However, DNA is copied into mRNA because mRNA will serve as reference book that contains information as the DNA and its sequence is complementary to the DNA template.

How does nitrogen leave a food chain?
vitfil [10]

Answer: c

Explanation: Plants and animals need nitrogen to make proteins but they cannot take it in from the air. Because nitrogen is unreactive as a gas, it has to be transformed into a new molecule. When bacteria in the soil takes nitrogen from the air, it becomes nitrates. Finally, it can move through the food chain in this form.

Groundwater helps to replenish our freshwater lakes and rivers. In two or more complete sentences, describe a source of contamin
Viefleur [7K]

The agriculture is one of the biggest contaminators of the groundwater. The contamination happens through the usage of chemicals in the agriculture for protection of the plants, or to encourage their growth. Part of those chemicals mange to wash through the soil and reach the groundwater. The majority of the groundwater is connected with the lakes and the rivers, thus the chemicals reach those waters as well. This makes these waters unusable for the humans because they are becoming toxic. The end result would be much less freshwater for usage, be it fro drinking, or for housework, as it can cause serious damage and even death if used, so a shortage of water would be inevitable.
