If you put a lump of solid carbon dioxide (dry ice) in a paper cup or
on a paper plate on the kitchen counter, it gets smaller and smaller
and finally it just disappears, but you never see a puddle around it
like you would with regular ice!

Carbon dioxide has no liquid phase when the pressure on it is less than
about 5 times normal atmospheric pressure.  So in the kind of pressure
that we like to live in, dry ice goes straight to gas when it melts.  That kind
of behavior is called "sublimation", and we say that the dry ice "sublimes".

Every substance has some pressure limit like that.  For water, it's 0.006 of
normal atmospheric pressure.  At any pressure lower than that, liquid water
can't exist, and an ice cube sublimes ... it melts directly into water vapor
without a puddle.

Which refers to swelling as a result of inflammation?
Bad White [126]

Answer: Edema

Explanation:

The swelling that is caused as the result of inflammation is known as Edema. Just after an injury takes place the traumatized area becomes red, painful and warm. It also starts to swell.

This swelled area is also known as Edema which is caused due to acute response of acute inflammation.

This response is trigerred by the injured tissues. When the body starts healing then, change in blood flow takes place and swelling is also cured.

But sometimes it is so acute that it restricts the normal blood flow and movement of the affected area.

The final step in the hybridization of radioactive DNA and normal DNA is to:
fgiga [73]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Cooling reduces the excitement of the molecules of the DNA hence allowing the hydrogen bonds between the base pairs of the two strands to form hence the DNA is considered to anneal. Heating disrupts the hydrogen bonds and causes the two strands to dissociate.

What would happen if the G at the end of the AUG codon were deleted?
Alla [95]

Answer:

Not 100% sure- Hope it helps though

Explanation:

Since codons consist of three base pairs, if, for example, only one or two base pairs are deleted, then the way the DNA is read is shifted at the place of the deletion or insertion. After the place of the mutation, ALL of the amino acids that follow will be different.
