The atmosphere is the envelope of air surrounding the Earth. The air composed of gases. In the atmosphere, the percentage of different gases differ. Nitrogen comprises 78.08 %, oxygen is 20.95%, and carbon dioxide is another important gas which consists of 0.036%. In the atmosphere, water vapour is 0 to 4%.

It is divided up into layers or spheres such as troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere. The troposphere is lowermost layers in which living organisms found. In the stratosphere, the ozone layer is present which absorbs harmful ultraviolet radiation (UV rays) which are coming from the sun. So, it protects life from its harmful effect.

TEA [102]
Hi there!

Although there are only 20 amino acids, these amino acids can combine into an innumerable amount of combinations to form different and unique proteins. 

<span>In case that doesn't make sense to you, I'll provide you with an analogy. You could be provided with 20 different LEGO bricks to work with. While there may only be 20 bricks, these bricks can combine into a vast amount of different formations, structures, etc. Amino Acids work in the same way.</span>

What is the purpose of using control groups in an experiment
Brums [2.3K]
Typically you use experimental and control groups in an experiment. a control group is like the default, and the experimental is the one you actually experiment with.

for example if i run an experiment on the effects of food dye on a leaf stem, i’ll have my control group (the ones without food dye) to compare to the experimental group (the ones with food dye)

the control group is a way for scientists to see how an experiment truly affected or altered the subject
