One hypothesis that has been proposed regarding the origin of life suggests that life evolved fromanʺRNA worldʺto today’sʺDNA wo

rld.ʺ
Considering the properties of RNA and DNA molecules, which questions would direct an investigation of the most insightful test(s) of this hypothesis?

A) Since ribozymes could freely enter and leave the vesicles, could these molecules have brought external DNA into the cell as a less stable, but more reliable storage molecule of double-stranded DNA?
B) Is it likely that simple, yet stable RNA molecules served as a primitive precursor to a less stable DNA molecule that was more capable of storing more information?
C) Is it likely that RNA molecules functioned as ribozymes to synthesize DNA from amino acids, and that this role was reversed when DNA became the information source?
D) Could RNA have provided a template for DNA assembly, thereby enabling a more stable molecule that is replicated more accurately?

Which qualities describe the entire open-ocean zone? Check all that apply. few nutrients
uysha [10]

<u>Answer:</u>

- few nutrients

- high pressure

- low temperatures

<u>Explanation:</u>

1. Few nutrients:  open-ocean zone is located way far from the land, which is the main source of the essential nutrients.

2. High pressure: pressure increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10 meters increase in depth.

3. Ample sunlight: a large fraction of the sunlight is reflected back to the atmosphere from the sea surface.

4. Varying salinity: below the thermocline, the water is isolated from the atmosphere so the salinity remains stable over the year.

5. Low temperatures:  the temperature of open-ocean zone ranges from a low of -2°C to an average of 17°C.

When atp is used by a cell to provide the energy for cellular work, the usual end products left over from the atp molecule are _
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

When atp is used by a cell to provide the energy for cellular work, the usual end products left over from the atp molecule are ADP

<u>Explanation:</u>

Like every other living thing that needs energy to survive the cells also needs energy for the proper functioning of the organism. Through Cellular respiration the cells derive energy in the form of ATP molecules.  

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) releases energy to the required cell by transferring one phosphate and then becoming Adenosine diposphate (ADP).

Then after it releases energy it is all set up to absorb another phosphate molecule to become ATP. And this is the simple process of acquiring and transferring energy to the cells.
