<span>Blue light is in all directions in the air in Earth's atmosphere. Blue is scattered more than other colors mainly because it moves in shorter, smaller waves of light. That's why the sky appears blue for the majority of the time. </span>

Bluee light is scattered in all directions by the tiny molecules of air in Earth's atmosphere. Blue Is scattered more than other colors because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue sky most of the time.

Different mRNA molecules can have poly-A tails of different lengths. Considering the purpose of adding the poly-A tail (from the
Roman55 [17]

Answer:  Then the longer it is, the more it protects against degradation. Proteins that are needed over a long period of time come from a long tailed mRNA.

Explanation:

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is the ribonucleic acid that transfers the genetic code from the DNA of the cell nucleus to a ribosome in the cytoplasm. It determines the order in which the amino acids in a protein will bind and acts as a template or pattern for the synthesis of that protein.

Messenger RNA is synthesized in the cell nucleus in eukaryotes from the process called DNA transcription. <u> In most cases, once this messenger RNA has been synthesized, it must be matured (RNA maturation)</u>. This involves the removal of intercalary sequences called non-coding introns from the protein to be synthesized. Then, the addition of a structure called CAP to the 5' end, which is a modified guanine nucleotide needed for the normal process of DNA transplantation and maintaining its stability. This is critical for proper recognition and access of the ribosome.  Also, polyadenylation which is the addition of the sequence called Poly-A to the 3' end. The Poly-A sequence is made up of several adenine molecules and is located at about 20-30 bp towards the tail (AAPAA sequence) or polyadenylation signal, which protects the end of the mRNA. The polyadenylation helps to increase the period of the message, so that the transcription lasts longer in the cell and therefore more protein is translated and produced.

This mature messenger RNA is transferred to the cell's cytoplasm, in the case of eukaryotes, through pores in the nuclear membrane.  The messenger RNA in the cytoplasm is coupled to the ribosomes, which are the machinery in charge of protein synthesis.<u>  However, after a certain amount of time the mRNA is degraded</u> into its component nucleotides, usually with the help of ribonucleases. So, an mRNA with a short tail will have a shorter lifespan.

Then, proteins that are needed over a long period of time come from a long tailed mRNA. And proteins that are briefly nedded come from a short tailed mRNA. This is because, as explained, the Poly-A tail serves to protect the mRNA molecule from degradation. So, then the longer it is, the more it protects against degradation.

Elena L [17]
Through analysis of ice cores, scientists learn about glacial-interglacial cycles, changing atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, and climate stability over the last 10,000 years. Many ice cores have been drilled in Antarctica.

If it takes 27.3 days for the moon to
Ber [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

It takes 27.3 days for moon to make one revolution this is called sidereal  month and it takes 29.5 days to complete a cycle of phase this is called synodic month. The synodic month is difference is because as the moon moves around earth, the earth is also moving round the sun. Hence, the moons needs to move farther away to make up the distance that was added as the earth also revolves in other to complete the cycle.
