Why do bodies of water tend to moderate temperature swings from day to day?

Biology
2 answers:
Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago
6 0

The bodies of water tend to have moderate temperature swings because of the high heat capacity of water. The heat capacity is the ability of a substance to retain heat energy. The water in seas and oceans become warm during the day time, but take time to loose heat in the night. This  gradual loss of heat energy maintains a moderate temperature around the shoreline.

Which statements are true for dna and rna? check all that apply?
LekaFEV [45]
Since there are no given choices, I would just compare and contrast DNA and RNA. These are the two types of nucleic acids in the human body. The structural unit of nucleic acids are composed of repeating units of monomers called nucleotides. Nucelotides are composed of three functional groups: sugars which are specifically pentoses (5-Carbon sugars), phosphate group and nitrogenous base.

Now, the RNA and DNA differ in the composition of these sugars and the bases. Based on the nitrogenous bases and sugar, the DNA has a deoxyribose as the sugar and its 4 bases are adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine. For RNA, the sugar is ribose while its 4 bases are <span>adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil.

They also differ in their structure. </span>DNA is a double stranded β-helix with a long chain of nucleotides. RNA is composed of a shorter chain with a single strand α-helix structure.

Lastly, they differ in their functions. T<span>he DNA is responsible for storing the genetic information while the RNA is responsible for transporting the genetic information to the ribosomes which synthesize proteins.</span>

Choose the best explanation of the difference between evolution and natural selection.
eduard

Answer:

The Answer is A.

Explanation:

This is correct because evolution is a change in the inherited traits of a population over many generations. While natural selection is a mechanism where the members of a population best suited to their environment have the best chance of surviving to pass on their genes.

olasank [31]

Answer:

The probability of a white offspring is of 25%

Explanation:

To find the probability we can draw a 4-square Punnett square using the parents' alleles for the gene. If you want a more detailed explanation I would be glad to help :)

Does anyone know this??
Mandarinka [93]

Bauxite ore is one of the primary source of aluminum but it must first be chemically processed to produce alumina (aluminum oxide). The next step of aluminum production is smelting of alumina using an electrolysis process (Hall-Heroult process). This electrolysis process is driven by electrical current. Electrolyte (molten salt) with immersed carbon anodes is used in order to dissolve the alumina. Carbon anodes are carrying electrical current and thee chemical bond between aluminum and oxygen in the alumina is broken.
