Fats and lipids are hydrophobic which makes them water repelling compounds. Therefore, presence of a waxy coating on the outer skin of the desert plant prevents loss of water via evaporation from the skin of the plants. This helps the plant store water and increases its survival period.

Well, desert plants doesn't have many source of water since the region where they live is very dry with little rainfall ratio
One of the way for the plant to survive is by minimizing the amount of water that evaporated from its body, and they usually done it by coating their leave with waxy substance

What was the Court’s decision in United States v. Nixon (1974) and how did the decision uphold the idea that even the President
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

The Supreme Court decided that the President was required to turn over tape recordings and other materials that had been subpoenaed by special prosecutor Leon Jaworski.

In trying to withhold some materials related to the Watergate investigation, Nixon's lawyer had argued that the President of the United States "is not subject to the processes of any court in the land except the court of impeachment." The Supreme Court disagreed, in unanimous fashion. They held that the President could not use executive privilege as an excuse for hiding wrongdoing or avoiding prosecution. In an interview some years after his resignation, Nixon still held to his view, claiming that when the President does something, "that means that it is not illegal." He felt that being in the position of President put him above the law. But the Supreme Court had firmly disagreed. They rejected the idea of "absolute, unqualified Presidential privilege of immunity from judicial process under all circumstances." Executive privilege can only protect matters of military or diplomatic confidentiality

Hi there!

The lower the area, the warner it is, because of the change in air pressure. Less air and less air pressure results in colder temperatures even though higher places may be closer to the sun.

Which statement is FALSE?1. Flexible domain of T7 RNAP is part of a single protein and it binds to a major grove recognizing T7
uranmaximum [27]
<h2>Answer is option "2"</h2>

Explanation:

  • The high movement of T7 RNA polymerase has made the T7 RNA polymerase-based articulation framework exceptionally amazing for significant level articulation of recombinant protein. In any case, the overactivity of T7 RNA polymerase would likewise realize negative consequences for plasmid security and protein creation, particularly while communicating a lethal protein. In the event that the last job is predominant, it is important to embrace a few measures to weaken the action or the measure of T7 RNA polymerase in the cells
  • This represents an issue when an engineered hereditary framework is presented. At the point when it depends on the interpretation and interpretation hardware of the host, it turns out to be verifiably implanted in their guideline, causing it delicate to changes that to happen during cell development and capacity
  • Hence, the right answer is option 2 "T7 RNAP activity is strengthly regulated"
