Answer: d. all of the above

Fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gas are beneficial sources of energy used by the human society. Fossil fuels are non- renewable resources, which are produced after millions of years of geological and biological activity taking place inside the earth crust. Human society is mainly dependent upon the fossil fuels to maintain it's energy needs.

There are some negative consequences associated with fossil fuels:  

Environmental consequences: Fossil fuels are used for generation of energy in the power plants and by the automobiles. These sources releases partially and completely combusted products which includes the poisonous gases causing air and water pollution.

Economic consequences: Fossil fuel use is related with economic crisis because fossil fuels are non- renewable resources, which cannot be replenished once used. They are expensive and many commercial energy generation processes are dependent on them such as electricity, transportation and others.  

Development hindrances: Large dependence on fossil fuels creating an hindrance on development process. As, there are very few findings which are resulted which could replace the fossil fuels, these finding can be beneficial for the environmental and economic point of view.

If more individuals are born with the advantageous trait in each generation, over time what do you predict will happen to the pe
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

The percentage (%) of the alleles that code for this trait in the population will increase, as more individuals are born with the trait.

Explanation:

The more individuals get born expressing the trait, the higher its frequency gets in the population. By generation, there are more individuals carrying the allele for the advantageous trait. These individuals reproduce and increase the probabilities of the progeny to inherit the mentioned allele. When this sequence keeps occurring in the population over many generations, the allele percentage will increase. On the other hand, the other allele or alleles will decrease. Probably, if there are no changes that might influence or affect this pattern, the alleles for the advantageous trait will fixate, while the other allele might get lost.

What structure brings tRNA and mRNA together
tester [92]
Translation requires some specialized equipment. Just as you wouldn't go to play tennis without your racket and ball, so a cell couldn't translate an mRNA into a protein without two pieces of molecular gear: ribosomes and tRNAs.<span>Ribosomes provide a structure in which translation can take place. They also catalyze the reaction that links amino acids to make a new protein.</span><span>tRNAs (transfer RNAs) carry amino acids to the ribosome. They act as "bridges," matching a codon in an mRNA with the amino acid it codes for.</span>Here, we’ll take a closer look at ribosomes and tRNAs. If you're not yet familiar with RNA (which stands for ribonucleic acid), I highly recommend checking out the nucleic acids section first so you can get the most out of this article!Ribosomes: Where the translation happensTranslation takes place inside structures called ribosomes, which are made of RNA and protein. Ribosomes organize translation and catalyze the reaction that joins amino acids to make a protein chain.

Which of the following can be related to heat flow and movement of molten rock within the interior of the Earth?
stiks02 [169]

The answer is; D

The plasticity of rock in the mantle and the convection currents in the region are responsible for tectonic plate movements. The hot molten rock from deep in the mantle rise and is replaced by the cooler rock at the upper mantle. These convections are similar to those of water in a boiling pot. As the tectonic plates move (as they are dragged by these convections) and collide, earthquakes are caused. In addition, at subductions zones (where two plates collide) there occurs high volcanic activity.
