Answer:

The Dam Rehabilitation Program

Explanation:

The Small Watershed Rehabilitation Amendments of 2000, which was well termed as the Dam Rehabilitation Program is mainly an amendment to PL-566 giving power and privilege to the Secretary of Agriculture to give aid to possessor of public dams created formerly under PL-566, PL-534, the RC&D Program and the Pilot Watershed Program.

This program was established in respect to the high levels of aging dams (greater than 11,000) esrablished across the nation from 1948 with a increasing amount that requires rehabilitation to keep up with the several importance they provide.

Dam Rehabilitation:

In Virginia, 150 dams is considered as belonging to the state’s landscape/infrastructure via the PL-566, PL-534, and Pilot Watershed programs. One care infer that, one-third of these dams requires maintenance, if not repaired, could lead to high dangers of environmental, economic, and social effects. The dams were constructed to preserve agricultural lands and small towns and regions from the endangering impacts of flooding. It also acts as a source of water supply and recreational opportunities, protecting fish and wildlife habitat, and preserving of water quality.

Some of the dams in the Dam Rehabilitation program in Virginia includesMarrowbone Creek in Henry County; Inch Branch, Robinson Hollow, Toms Branch, Mills Creek, Todd Lake, and Hearthstone Lake in Augusta County; and Royal Lake, Lake Barton, Woodglen Lake, and Huntsman Lake in Fairfax County.

Explain why it is important for dying cells to be properly removed
victus00 [196]
Cells within the body are properly arranged and their production uses up resources of the body. For example, red blood cells use iron while being produced. The body must dispose of cell properly to maintain the orderly arrangement of cells; for example, if dead skin cells were not removed, we would lose feeling in our skin due to the layer of dead cells. Moreover, the body must work to minimize wastage. This is why some of the iron from red blood cells is removed and reused.

Luden [163]
Sounds like a trick question.

Maybe not. contamination is easy, but gloves are a barrier between other organic material on yourself (such as what you ate for lunch) and what you are testing.

Other than the fact your DNA will be different than another person’s DNA, if we assume you are theoretically free of debris of any kind, then your DNA would test the same always.

Note: any contamination after purifying extract for a small sequence can give false positives. There are repeat sequences possible that would interfere if you are testing a small enough sequence.

I hope that helps!

Determine whether the following events occur during initiation, elongation, or termination. This is regarding protein synthesis.
erik [133]

Answer:

The provided events can be classified as:

Initiation

  • In prokaryotes, the Shine-Dalgarno sequence pairs with rRNA.
  • In E. coli, mRNA binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit.

Elongation

  • In E. coli, EF-Tu delivers an aminoacyl-tRNA to the ribosome
  • Initiator tRNA enters the P site.
  • In E. coli, EF-Tu hydrolyzes.
  • Translocation occurs

Termination

  • The ribosome has mRNA, an empty A site, and deacylated tRNA in the P site

Translation is the process by which polypeptide chain is synthesized based on the codon sequence of the mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid).

It is divided into three stages:

Initiation: The small and large sub-units of the ribosome get assembled around the initiation codon. It forms three sites (A, P, and E site) for interaction tRNA and mRNA.

Elongation: Specific charged-tRNA enters from A site and transfers its amino acid to the growing polypeptide chain in P site. Uncharged tRNA exit from the E site. Ribosome moves or translocates to the next  codon.

Termination: As soon as ribosome reaches the termination codon, it releases the newly synthesized polypeptide chain.
