Answer:

The correct answer would be hydrologic cycle (hydro means "related to water").

Hydrologic cycle or water cycle refers to the cyclic movement of water in an ecosystem.

The physical processes involved in the cycling of water throughout the ecosystem are: evaporation, condensation, sublimation, precipitation, infiltration, and runoff (surface and sub-surface).

Water evaporates from the surface of the earth into the atmosphere where they condense to form clouds. When temperature decreases, the water droplets merge with each other to form bigger droplets which are precipitated in the form of rain.

Water can also precipitate in the form of snow, fog, hail sleet et cetera.

Water fall on the earth surface either infiltrate to form ground water or runoff the surface to from lakes, rivers et cetera.

What is the term for the nucleotide sequences that are removed during mrna processing?
Ne4ueva [31]

The correct answer is: introns

Processing of mRNA is process that occurs only in eukaryotic cells. After the transcription, newly formed mRNA molecule is called and it must be processed into a messenger RNA (mRNA). Processing includes:

• Addition of a 5' cap to the beginning of the RNA

• Polyadenilation- addition of a poly-A tail (tail of A nucleotides) to the end of the RNA

• Splicing- removal of introns and linking the exons

After these steps mRNA is mature and used for the further steps (e.g. translation).

Sometimes some genes are alternatively spliced.

Researchers hypothesized that cocaine is pharmacologically active in primate fetal brain when pregnant primates are administered
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Option A, Glucose metabolism in the fetal brain increased

Explanation:

Usage of cocaine during pregnancy is prohibited. However, in case if cocaine is taken it disrupts the metabolism as it increases brain glucose metabolism to the level of an adult human being. Since glucose metabolism in brain is a sensitive process, any disruption in it can lead to unaccounted effects such as dysfunctional circulation, and pharmacological effect. Cocaine increases the dopamine by blocking the dopamine transporters thereby increasing the Vmax. Since the brain of a child has all kind of neurochemical components, cocaine intakes by a pregnant woman produces reinforcing effects in brain of fetus and also make it pharmacologically active

Hence, option A  is correct
