alekssr [168]3 years ago

The correct answer is option A. CO2 traps the heat of the sun in earths atmosphere.

Carbon dioxide gas has the ability to trap the heat of the sun rays near earth's surface. This is known as green house effect. This is the reason why earth's atmosphere remains warm even in the absence of sunlight i.e. during evening and night. The heat which is trapped by CO2 persists in the environment rather than dissipating back into the space. It also means that earth would have been less warmer without an atmosphere because it is the atmosphere of earth which has CO2 and other green house gases.

The consequences of artificial selection and the advantages and disadvantages of using genetic information in society. Use facts
Zinaida [17]

Artificial selection or selective breeding is a process of selecting the “advantageous” characteristics from the plants or animals by humans and using them for breeding. There are many advantages of artificial selection:

• More agricultural products, gaining higher profit (for example more milk from cow, or more fruit)

• Elimination of diseases by identifying the plants/animals with disease

• Production of superior breed.

On the other hand, negative effects might also occur, so the disadvantages of artificial selection are:

• Genetic mutations  

• Loss of genes

• Diseases

All of these negative impacts are connected and often arise from the breeding of desirable organisms.

sashaice [31]

Answer: Substances that are protein based cannot cross the lipid cell membrane, but can exert their effect by binding to the proteins based receptors present on the lipid bilayer.

Explanation:

Hormones such as calcitonin , Parathyroid hormone and pituatry horomones are proteins and water soluble.They cannot cross lipid bilayer but can bind to ligand binding protein receptors.

These receptors are protein macromolecules that are specific in nature for specific hormones.

After binding to the receptors, these hormone-recpetor complexes activate second messengers and regulate the downstream effects.
