c disruption of animal habitats

Explanation:

One of the likely effect of large scale infrastructural development is that it can lead to the disruption of animal habitats.

To develop new infrastructure, new areas have to be cleared to install the facilities and this can lead into encroachment of animal habitats.

  • Oil drilling projects are capital intensive ventures undertaken by exploration and production companies.
  • The oil is usually found in geologic formations deep within the earth crust.
  • To access this fuel, large drilling ventures must be undertaken in order to accommodate to technology and man power.
  • New areas have to cleared and this can push the habitat of organisms backward

mariarad [96]

Answer:

transcription initiation

Explanation:

Transcription is a process by which genetic information from DNA is used to synthesize an RNA molecule, usually, a messenger RNA (mRNA), which is subsequently utilized to synthesize a protein by a process called translation. Transcription in prokaryotes has three steps:

1-Initiation: the RNA polymerase is a multisubunit enzyme (holoenzyme) composed of two α, one β, one β’ and one ω and σ subunits (α2ββ’ωσ). This holoenzyme binds to the promoter region of the template DNA strand.

2-Elongation. The sigma σ factor of the holoenzyme is released and the complex and the core enzyme (α2 ββω) moves along the template strand, thereby producing an mRNA sequence

3-Termination. This step can be Rho-dependent, where a protein named "Rho" recognizes the termination site and stop transcription, and Rho-independent (transcription continues until the termination sequence is reached).

In consequence, Rifamycin is likely to block the initiation of transcription because the core RNA enzyme needs to bind the sigma factor (σ) for initiation of transcription in bacteria.

Why was it important for Miller and Urey to sterilized the apparatus to kill any bacteria in it?
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Having bacteria would produce organic molecules and defeat the whole purpose of the experiment which is to make organic molecules from inorganic molecules. The experiment was supposed to demonstrate the formation of the first organic molecules that initiated life on primordial earth. It is believed that lightning powered the formation of the first simple amino acids, like glycine, from the primordial atmosphere which was mainly composed of carbon dioxide and methane.

Which of the following structures is NOT found in some prokaryotic cells?
WARRIOR [948]

The answer would be:

Cilium

<u>Here is more about the structures of prokaryotic cells:</u>

Axial filament is a bundle of flagella that are wrapped around the cell's body.

Flagellum is what the prokaryotic cell has that is whip-like in structure. It helps with the motility of the cell.

Pilus is a hair-like structure that are found on the surface of prokaryotic cells. They help the cell attach itself to surfaces.

Peritrichous flagella are several flagella that can be found all over some prokaryotic cells.
