Which principle of stratigraphy could be used to determine the relative ages of Layer 7 and Layer 3?

Biology

Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

According to the fossil succession, the rocks that are comprised of similar fossils that are found in different places are of the same age. This law enables a geologist to determine the relative age of the rock layers in an undisturbed sedimentary sequence.

In the given condition, considering the layers as 1, 2, and so on, from the bottom towards the top, the relative age of the layers could be determine, where, the layer 3 will be older than the layer 7 as the fossils embedded in the layer 3 were deposited earlier, and the fossils embedded in the layer 7 were deposited later, in terms of geological time.

Thus, based on the principle of fossil succession, the relative ages of the layers can be determined.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

All of the following are differences in transcription, RNA processing, and translation between prokaryotes and eukaryotes except
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

the mRNA goes through extensive modifications such as addition of a poly tail and a 5' cap in eukaryotes but not in prokaryotes.

Differences:

- the promoters in prokaryotes have a -35 and -10 box while in eukaryotes they are variable but have a TATA box from  

- the transcription initiation site there is a single RNA polymerase in prokaryotes while eukaryotes have multiple RNA polymerases

- the sigma factor associates with the promoter region in prokaryotes but in eukaryotes there are many basal transcription factors

Explanation:

Ribosomal and transfer RNAs are processed both in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. However, mRNA is only processed in eukaryotes. In eukaryotic cells, mRNA processing involves:

1. Capping at the 5' end. This process has several functions including regulation of nuclear export, prevention of eukaryotic mRNA degradation and promotion of translation.

2. Splicing in order to remove introns and conserve coding exons. Splicing helps to increase the diversity of the eukaryotic mRNAs (and therefore eukaryotic proteins)

3. Polyadenylation by the addition of a poly(A) tail at the 3' end. The poly(A) tail makes the eukaryotic mRNA molecule more stable and also prevents its degradation by exonucleases.

Tube dwelling polychaetes look similar to some sea anemones, especially those that bury themselves in the mud. Both animals have
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Sea anemones are marine predatory animals. They are like a terrestrial flowering plant due to their colorful appearance. They are coming under the phylum cnidaria.  

Sea anemones are found in different forms called a polyp. It has a columnar trunk, on the top of the trunk an oral disc and centrally placed mouth. The mouth is surrounded by tentacles.

Sea anemones have a gastrovascular cavity that serves as stomach. This cavity has one opening both meant for mouth and anus.

Sea anemones are capable of changing their shape and lives on the mud, holding it by pedal disc.

Polychaetes are segmented worms. Each segment of the body bears parapodia. It helps them in locomotion. There are different types of polychaetes, tube-dwelling polychaetes are one of them.

Tube - dwelling polychaetes make tubes to protect their soft bodies.  

They don't have parapodia but some special anterior structures for feeding. The tubes are made from calcareous materials.

How a change in glycoproteins affects a cell’s ability to maintain homeostasis
Licemer1 [7]

Explanation:

Most of the cell surface receptors and glycoproteins. These glycoproteins have active sites that recognize specific signals, like hormones, that initiate secondary signaling pathways inside of the cell, in response to the external signal. This is how cells respond to environmental stimuli.

If a change in glycoproteins makes them unable to bind signaling molecules (like hormones) or makes them permanently bind these molecules, there will definitely be a defect in how the cell responds to external stimuli.  The cell will be, for example, be unable to respond to insulin in case of elevated blood sugar levels as is the case with diabetics.
