Why factors are cause of short-term climate change
laiz [17]

Answer:

6 factors that cause short term climate change...

Explanation:

Latitude - depends on how far or close to the equator it is

Ocean currents - Certain ocean currents have different temperatures.

Wind and air masses. Heated ground causes air to rise which results in lower air pressure. As it rises it cools and descends to the ground resulting in high air pressure.

Elevation. The higher up you are, the colder and drier it will be. When air rises it expands due to low air pressure which causes it to cool.

Relief. The differences in the elevation inland. As air is forced to rise over a piece of land, the temperature decreases and condensation increases.

Nearness to water. The water heats up and cools down slower than land does, having a moderating effect. On colder days, the water heats up the land, whereas on hotter days, the land is cooled down by the water.

Consider a mutation in which the change is from uac to uau. Both codons specify the amino acid tyrosine. Which type of point mut
ddd [48]

The correct answer is: silent mutation

There are a few types of genetic mutation that can change genetic code. Those mutations can be classified:

1. Substitution-only one base is changed

• Nonsense mutations-when substitution leads to the formation of a stop codon instead of a codon

• Missense mutations-when one nucleotide is substituted and a different codon is formed

• Silent mutations-when a nucleotide is substituted and the same amino acid is produced

2. Insertion- extra base pairs are inserted

3. Deletion- section of DNA is deleted
