What drives deep ocean currents?

Biology

OLEGan [10]3 years ago

Answer:

B) difference in water density

Explanation:

The deep ocean currents are the cold ocean currents. They appear in the Arctic and Antarctic circles. As the warm ocean currents come from the low latitudes toward the high latitudes, they bring in warmer water on the surface. They start to cool off though as the near the high latitudes, so gradually they become cold ocean currents. As they become cold, the water is sinking below the less dense warmer water that is coming from behind, making a turn in the opposite direction and moving as deep ocean current toward the low latitudes. Once it reaches the low latitudes, this water will get warmer, and it will move toward the high latitudes, and the process constantly continues.

Answer:

Esta afirmación es correcta ya que la ley de conservación de la energía es también aplicable a sistemas vivos  

Explanation:

La ley de la conservación de la energía (la cual es la primera ley de la termodinámica) indica que la energía no se puede crear ni se puede destruir, solamente se transforma, de un tipo a otro. La ley de la conservación de la energía es de vital importancia para entender la existencia del mundo natural. En ecología, la energía fluye de un nivel trófico a otro en forma de biomasa, es decir, dentro de la cadena alimentaria. Esta energía no se puede crear ni destruir sino que es almacenada en los organismos, los cuales representan sistemas abiertos que intercambian materia y energía con el medio. Una vez dentro del organismo, una parte de esta energía es transformada (en plantas, por ejemplo, la energía es convertida en enlaces químicos durante la síntesis de carbohidratos), mientras que otra parte de la energía se elimina al exterior (por ejemplo, se disipa en forma de calor), pero la energía no se crea ni se destruye.

Describe the DNA transcription process, which involves the transfer of the DNA genetic code onto an mRNA molecule.
Bad White [126]
DNA is present within the nucleus of the cells and it is responsible for the production of various proteins and enzymes to keep the cellular activity going on. However, it cannot directly do so and seeks help of the messenger RNA molecules. DNA transcription is a process that involves transfer of the DNA code from the DNA to the mRNA molecule for the production of proteins.
