cestrela7 [59]

Energy in ecosystems must be continuously supplied by the sun  as the warmth from the sun allows plants to grow plus photosynthesis depends on the sun's energy also. Animals also depend on the sun for warmth to survive (or else hibernate). Also, the sun powers the water cycle, the carbon cycle and the nitrogen cycle

Classify each RNA post-transcription processing event according to whether it occurs in prokaryotes or eukaryotes.
tigry1 [53]

'RNA is transcribed and translated in the cytoplasm', 'transcription produces an mRNA ready for translation' and 'RNA is proofread for errors' occur in prokaryotes, whereas '5′ cap, 3' poly-(A) tail and RNA splicing' occur in eukaryotes.

The prokaryotic cells (e.g., bacterial cells) do not contain cell nuclei, thereby the messenger RNA (mRNA) must be transcribed and translated in the cytoplasm.

During prokaryotic transcription, the RNA transcript is proofread for errors. In bacteria, DNA polymerases proofread the transcript by using their 3’ → 5’ exonuclease activity.

In eukaryotic cells, RNA processing consists of several mechanisms:

  • A 7-methylguanosine cap (5′ cap) is added to the 5′ end of the precursor messenger RNA (pre-mRNA).

  • A 3' poly-Adenine (A) tail is added to the 3' end of the pre-mRNA.

  • Both the 5′ cap and 3' poly-(A) tail protect the RNA transcript from its degradation by exonucleases.

  • Eukaryotic RNA splicing consists of the removal of non-coding regions called 'introns' and subsequent splicing of the protein-coding regions called 'exons'.

How does photosynthesis help to maintain homeostasis in plant cells?
viktelen [127]

Plants maintain homeostasis by keeping their stomata open just enough to allow photosynthesis to take place but not so much that they lose an excessive amount of water.

When plant cells use the food they make, the cells respire, taking in oxygen and giving off carbon dioxide.

A daughter cell that matures to the inside of the vascular cambium becomes ______, and a daughter cell that matures to the outsi
melomori [17]

A daughter cell that matures to the inside of the vascular cambium becomes<u> secondary xylem</u> and a daughter cell that matures to the outside of the vascular cambium becomes <u>secondary phloem.</u>

<u />

  • The cambium divides its cells to create secondary xylem and phloem. As secondary phloem and xylem tissue builds up, the stem becomes thicker and develops wood and bark.
  • The kind of xylem produced by secondary growth is known as secondary xylem. In contrast, during primary growth, the primary xylem develops.
  • As a result, lateral growth, as opposed to vertical growth, is connected with the secondary xylem, as opposed to the primary xylem.
  • The procambium, which is found between the xylem axis and the phloem pole, develops into the cambium in the root.
  • A pattern resembling the arrangement of secondary stem is produced when xylem forms in the core and phloem on the perimeter of secondary development.

Answer:

They formed from a cloud of dust and gas.

Explanation:

A nebula is where the formation of stars takes place, so the Nebula Theory would pertain to the planets forming in the same way.
