Why are amino acids important?
serious [3.7K]
Protein plays a crucial role in almost all biological processes and amino acids are the building blocks of it. A large proportion of our cells, muscles and tissue is made up of amino acids, meaning they carry out many important bodily functions, such as giving cells their structure

Breastfed infants typically are resistant to disease because of ________.
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Passice immunity

Explanation:

Breast milk, produced by female mammals (including humans), besides being rich in fat and protein is full of IgA. IgA is the immunoglobulin (immune system signal proteins) that is present in body secretions, such as milk.

The baby that is fed from the mother's breast ingests these defense proteins that allow it to tolerate different pathogens and toxins.  

It is considered passive immunity, as it does not generate memory and depends on a continuous dose to maintain defense levels.

Need help with this evolution chart some I've filled in yet I'm not sure if they are correct.Plz help anybody
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

This is correct. The remaining portion:

Sympatric species that form interrelationships undergo coevolution.

Allopatric species in different environments can undergo convergent evolution.

Allopatric species in small populations and under intense environmental conditions can undergo genetic drift.

Explanation:

On the basis of geographical distance, speciation is of two major types:

  1. Sympatric
  2. Allopatric

Sympatric Speciation:

Sympatric speciation is the formation of new species with no gergraphical separation from the ancestor. The new and parent species both exist in the same environment but do not interbreed due to mechanisms of reproductive isolation. These involves both prezygotic and post zygotic barriers to reproduction such as timing of mating, sensitivity to pheromones, choice of mating sites or infertility and mismatched gametes. Species formed through sympatric speciation can form interrelationships and undergo coevolution i.e. the evolution of ones species is dependent on the other.  

Allopatric Speciation:

It involves the geographical separation of the parent and new species. These species could be geographically separated by a river, mountain range or land mass.

Although, allopatric species evolve independently, they may develop similar characteristics that serve different functions. Allopatric species in radically different environments undergo convergent evolution i.e. species evolve similar characteristics without any ancestral homology.

Allopatric species that reside in small populations and are under harsh environmental pressures undergo a rapid genetic revolution i.e. genetic drift. This includes the Founder's and bottleneck effect that involve the continuation of a species from very few individuals after a drastic, sudden environmental change.

What is the dew-point temperature at which cloud formation begin
pshichka [43]
While relative humidity is (as its name suggests) a relative measure of how humid the air is, the dewpoint temperature is an absolute measure of how much water vapor is in the air. In very warm, humid conditions, the dewpoint temperature often reaches 75 to 77 degrees F, and sometimes exceeds 80 degrees
