Answer:
D. physical weathering
Explanation:
The geological process that initiates and leads to the breaking of the rocks is termed as the physical weathering. In this process, the chemical composition of the rocks do not undergo any change. The process of breaking of the rocks is both gradual and sudden. The movement of the earth, the change in the temperature, the rise and fall of the water level, the presence of ice rocks for longer duration of the time, and the melting of the snow are some of the reasons which causes the physical weathering.
The phenomena in the given expert represents the physical weathering.
Because they are smarter then plants
Answer:
b: many genes code for RNAs that function directly in the cell
Explanation:
<em>The central dogma</em> theory describes the basic framework for gene expression in living organisms. Genetic information from DNA is encoded or transcribed as RNA which then becomes translated as proteins.
The processes that take place for gene to be successfully expressed are;
- Replication
- Transcription
- Translation
<em>Replication</em> is a process whereby DNA makes a copy of itself to be distributed in daughter cells during cell division.
<em>Transcription</em> is the process whereby genetic information in DNA is encoded as RNAs. The RNAs are short-lived as they are quickly utilized in protein synthesis or <em>translation </em>process.
Hence, the RNAs do not function directly in the cells but mere intermediaries in the synthesis of proteins.
<em>The correct option is b.</em>
It's important to prepare the insects properly before eating: Wash the insects. Boil, steam or fry them for at least five minutes. Eat the prepared insects directly after cooking.
Answer:
2. 1 Pink : 1 white
3. 1 Red : 1 Pink
4. 1 Red : 2 Pink : 1 White
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for flower colour in snapdragon plants. The alleles of the gene exhibits incomplete dominance i.e. the red allele (R) ia not completely dominant over the white allele (W), hence an intermediate pink phenotype (RW) is formed. Based on this, a red snapdragon will have genotype, CRCR while a white one will have genotype, CWCW. The intermediate pink phenotype will have a genotype, CRCW.
The image attached to this question shows four crosses between different traits.
In the second cross between a pink (CRCW) and white offspring (CWCW), 2pink and 2white offsprings will be possibly produced in the ratio 1:1.
In the third cross between a red (CRCR) and pink (CRCW) snapdragon, 2 red and 2 Pink offsprings will possibly be produced in a ratio 1:1.
In the fourth cross between a pink (CRCW) and pink (CRCW) snapdragon, red, pink and white offsprings will be produced in the ratio 1:2:1.
See attached image for the complete punnet square. Note that, there was a mistake in the Genotype of the last cross i.e. pink has genotype CRCW not CWCW.
