Answer:

C. ocean currents  

Explanation:

Ocean currents designate huge portions of water moving in the seas and oceans of planet earth, which influence the climate of the regions in which they operate as they carry moisture and heat.

These large oceanic water flows are formed by the differences between atmospheric pressure and temperature variations, water salinity, terrestrial rotation movement (which influences its trajectory: right in the northern hemisphere and left in the southern hemisphere) and the displacement of air masses (winds). In addition, sea currents may or may not be orderly, directly influencing the climate, favoring marine life and biodiversity.

In short, oceanic currents represent the movement of colder water (at the earth's poles) and warmer water (equator line).

A lizard warms itself by lying on a warm rock. What is the main way thermal energy is transferred to the lizard from the rock?
trapecia [35]

Answer: The main way the thermal energy is transferred from the rock to the lizard is by conduction.

The lizard stretches out and warms itself by lying on a warm rock. The rock becomes warm as the sun transfers its thermal energy by radiation to the rock. The thermal energy to the lizard by the rock is transferred by direct contact through conduction. The air above the rock and the lizard also gets heated up and the heat is transferred through convection.

A signaling pathway that stimulates cellular growth and division is positively regulated by a GTPase encoded by an autosomally l
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is: a.

Explanation:

  • A Diploid organism possess two copies ( also called alleles) of each  autosomal gene, of which one copy of the gene is obtained from one of its parents and the other copy from its other parent.
  • During the process of replication, one of the alleles of the GTPase encoding gene undergoes a mis-sense mutation.
  • A Mis-sense mutation can be defined as a non-synonymous mutation in which one of the nucleotide in the sequence of the gene gets altered such that it causes a change in the amino acid encoded by the codon (triplet nucleotide message encoding for a single amino acid)  formed by the mutated nucleotide. A single amino acid change in the protein, if occurs in the functional site of the protein, can render a protein non-functional.
  • Hence, the mis-sense mutation in one of the alleles encoding for the GTPase gene causes the resulting protein produced from the mutated allele to have drastically reduced function (1%).
  • A heterozygous cell is one which has one copy of the normal allele and the other copy of the mutated allele of the GTPase encoding gene.
  • As one copy of the normal GTPase allele is present in such an individual, it can produce the normal GTPase protein that can assist in the process of cell growth and division.
  • Hence, the phenotype(expressed character) of  the heterozygous cell will not be affected due to the mutation and it will be able to grow and divide normally.
