16. Explain why pollution caused the shift in the phenotypes of the peppered moth during the Industrial Revolution. (2pts)
andrey2020 [161]

Answer/Explanation:

Pollution during the industrial revolution caused trees to become covered with soot, making them darker. This dark appearance meant that the peppered moth, which usually had a light colour, was clearly visible against the tree. This meant it was easier for predators to identify. As a result, their numbers decreased because they were an easier target.

However, there was also a rarer form of the moth, which was dark in colour. These were initially very rare. However, because of the change in the tree colour owing to the industrial revolution, these moths were better suited to the environment, as they were more camouflaged against the dark tree. This meant it was easier for them to avoid predators, and so they were more likely to survive to reproductive age and pass on the genes that produce the dark colour.  This meant that the dark moths increased in number.

Chlorophyll a molecules absorb ____ light
Whitepunk [10]

chlorophyll is a molecule that absorbs red and blue light

<h3>What is the chlorophyll?</h3>

Chlorophyll is a green pigment located in the mesosomes of cyanobacteria and in chloroplasts of plants used in photosynthesis.

The chlorophyll is known to absorb red and blue wavelengths from the sun.

Therefore, chlorophyll is a molecule that absorbs red and blue light.

If a plant has a high concentration of minerals inside its root cells, but does not have enough energy for active transport, wha
inna [77]

Answer:

The minerals will not be move or transported to other part of the plants because active transport require energy.

Explanation:

Active transport is a process where molecules and ions are move against a concentration gradient by using energy.

This process require energy, for ions or molecules of minerals to be taken up by plants, it is first moved to the root hairs where they are in high concentration against in dilute concentration on soil Active Transport then occur in the roots where it is taken up to the plants with the use of energy.

If there is not enough energy, active transport will not occur and the minerals will remain in the root hair and will not be move to other part of the plant.

Determine whether the following events occur during initiation, elongation, or termination. This is regarding protein synthesis.
erik [133]

Answer:

The provided events can be classified as:

Initiation

  • In prokaryotes, the Shine-Dalgarno sequence pairs with rRNA.
  • In E. coli, mRNA binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit.

Elongation

  • In E. coli, EF-Tu delivers an aminoacyl-tRNA to the ribosome
  • Initiator tRNA enters the P site.
  • In E. coli, EF-Tu hydrolyzes.
  • Translocation occurs

Termination

  • The ribosome has mRNA, an empty A site, and deacylated tRNA in the P site

Translation is the process by which polypeptide chain is synthesized based on the codon sequence of the mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid).

It is divided into three stages:

Initiation: The small and large sub-units of the ribosome get assembled around the initiation codon. It forms three sites (A, P, and E site) for interaction tRNA and mRNA.

Elongation: Specific charged-tRNA enters from A site and transfers its amino acid to the growing polypeptide chain in P site. Uncharged tRNA exit from the E site. Ribosome moves or translocates to the next  codon.

Termination: As soon as ribosome reaches the termination codon, it releases the newly synthesized polypeptide chain.

A scientist is trying to decide whether an organism is unicellular or multicellular. Which information would help the scientist
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

How many cells are in the organism will help the scientist decide if the organism is unicellular or multicellular.

Explanation:

How many cells are in the organism will help the scientist decide if the organism is unicellular or multicellular because A unicellular organism is an organism that have one cell or it is single celled organism while a multicellular organism have many cells present or it is comprises of many cells.

The number of cells will determine if the organism is single cell or multicellular.
