Solar energy does not warm Earth's surface evenly. For example, during the day, land areas warm up faster than nearby bodies of

water. How does this uneven warming affect the movement of air over land and water?

Explanation:

The uneven warming of the earth surface causes land and sea breeze over the land and water.

Water has a very high specific capacity and it takes more heat to cause a fractional increase in its temperature. During day, the air around water is cold and dense and under high pressure.

The land adjacent to the water, is a better conduct with a low specific heat capacity. When warming of the earth starts by the sun, the air on land heated by heat radiated from the surface. Air on land is warm, less dense and light.

This forces the air on land to move seaward and the cold air from the sea to move land ward and a sea breeze is set up.

At night the reverse is the case. The land loses heat very fast and the air around it is cold and dense. The water body does not lose heat so fast and the air around is warm and lighter. Air from the land replaces that on the surface of water and a land breeze is set up

which of the following statements are true regarding active transport and facilitated diffusion (choose two answers) a) Active t
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer: B and D

Explanation: We can break down why the correct answers are choices B and D by understanding why A and C are incorrect.

Option A states that active transport utilizes channel proteins, and facilitated diffusion utilizes carrier proteins. This is incorrect. Active transport involves carrier proteins, and facilitated diffusion involves channel proteins. Carrier proteins are different from channel proteins in that, while channel proteins can only facilitate the passive diffusion of ions into or out of the cell along their concentration gradient, carrier proteins can also use ATP to move ions in or out of the cell against their concentration gradient.

This brings us to why option C is also incorrect. Option C states that both processes require the input of energy in the form of ATP. While active transport requires the use of ATP to transport ions with or against their concentration gradient, facilitated diffusion does not. This is easily remembered when we consider that active transport is called *active* transport because the cell is *actively* using energy to transport ions.

Hope this helped.

If ssb is not present during dna replication, what would you expect to see?
In-s [12.5K]
A. SSB prevents reannealing of the separated strands, so strands would quickly reanneal and DNA replication cannot proceed.

Single-stranded binding proteins, or SSB, appear on the strands to separate the strands. Without a separation force, the strands would simply bind back together through hydrogen bonding.

How can I remember the definition of sticky end? Read below for the definition. I need help memorizing it.
mamaluj [8]
I’m not sure if this helps much, but try thinking of an Aloe Vera plant. When you cut into it, you expose the the sticky center. The part you cut has a “sticky end.” So, think of a knife as the restriction enzyme, and the plant as the DNA molecule that you’re cutting. Hope this helps.
