Answer: a. During the wet season, savannas receive little rain.

Explanation:

Savannas are the tropical grasslands which are dominated with warm and dry climatic conditions. The region is dominated with the diversity of shrubs and few grass species. These biomes are found near the edge of the rainforests in the tropical regions. It experiences warm temperatures year around but also exhibit distinction in seasons. It exhibit a very long dry winter season and a warm harsh summer season which receives very little rainfall. As a result of this the vegetation cover is scanty like deserts and plants exhibit special adaptations to prevent the loss of water.

Savannas are deserts and like most deserts, receive little to no rain so the answer is A :)

kotykmax [81]

The right answer is 4).

The cytoskeleton is made up of biological polymers of proteins, sometimes called fibers because of their large size at the cellular level. They are classified into three categories:

Microfilaments: involves in cytoplasmic phenomena (division, endocytosis, migration).

Intermediate filaments: Maintenance of the nucleus structure.

Microtubules: Involved in the separation of chromosomes during mitosis.

vovangra [49]
Given the age of the meteorite is 4.5 billion years old with 78 atoms of lead-206 the answer should be B. 156. The half-life of uranium-238 in order to decay into lead-206 is 4.46 billion years, which means that the original number of atoms is 156.

What are the roles of the dna , the mRNA , the rRNA , and the tRNA in protein synthesis?
RSB [31]

DNA and RNA

Transcription.  During the process of transcription, an enzyme called RNA polymerase binds to DNA at a gene's promoter, then begins unwinding the DNA and making a complementary strand of RNA from the exposed DNA template. Depending on the gene being transcribed, the result can be a molecule of mRNA (messenger RNA), tRNA (transfer RNA), or rRNA (ribosomal RNA). Each type of RNA performs a specific function later in translation.  

rRNA  

Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) along with ribosomal proteins make up ribosomes, the "workbenches" on which polypeptides (proteins) are synthesized. It turns out that it is actually rRNA, and not a protein, in the large subunit of the ribosome that performs the peptidyl transferase function of linking amino acids together via peptide bonds. In eukaryotes, the genes coding for rRNAs are located in the nucleolus of the nucleus. A ribosome has 3 binding sites: an A (aminoacyl) site, a P (peptidyl) site, and an E (exit) site.  

mRNA  

The message carrying the information needed to make a particular polypeptide exists in the mRNA molecule. It binds with a ribosome and the ribosome starts reading it one codon - 3 consecutive mRNA bases - at a time. Each of the possible 64 codons codes for a particular amino acid, or for a release factor (in which case it is a STOP codon). So the order of bases in the mRNA specifies the order in which amino acids are linked together to form a polypeptide.  

tRNA  

A tRNA molecule has 2 main sites. At one end it has an amino-acid attachment site and on the opposite end it has a 3-base anticodon. An enzyme (an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase) recognizes the type of tRNA and attaches the appropriate amino acid to it, at which point the tRNA is said to be charged. Charged tRNA molecules "bump into" the empty ribosome A site, but only if there is a complementary match between the mRNA codon associated with that site and the anticodon on the tRNA does the charged tRNA dock.


Hopefully, that's enough...
