Answer:
Refraction is an effect that occurs when a light wave, incident at an angle away from the normal, passes a boundary from one medium into another in which there is a change in velocity of the light. ... The wavelength decreases as the light enters the medium and the light wave changes direction.
Answer:
a) HT
Explanation:
This question shows an animal with two distinct unlinked genes i.e. on different chromosomes. One gene codes for head shape and the other for tail length. The gene for head shape possess alleles H and h, while gene for tail length possess alleles T and t.
According to Mendel's law of independent assortment, the alleles of a gene will separate into gametes independently of the alleles of another gene. This occurs in such a way that each gamete will contain only one allele from a gene.
Based on this principle, an animal with genotype HhTt will undergo meiosis and randomly produce gametes with the following allelic combinations: HT, Ht, hT, and ht. As seen in the gametes, only one allele of a gene occured in a gamete at a time.
Therefore, HT is the genotype possible in a gamete of parent: HhTt.
Which simple machine can be described as a rope that is threaded through a wheel or disk?
The correct answer is B - Pulley
A pulley is a simple machine that is used to lift loads. It consists of a wheel on which a rope is placed and the rope is pulled by the person towards himself to lift the load that is tied on the other side of the rope. There are three main types of pulleys: fixed, movable, and compound.
Answer:
(Answers will vary.)
In many forest ecosystems, squirrels and chipmunks compete for acorns and some other resources. However, they don’t have the exact same niches. Squirrels nest in trees, while chipmunks live underground. These species don’t compete with each other for mates either. Thus, squirrels are in interspecific competition with chipmunks.
All squirrels in a particular ecosystem share the same niche. The same is true of all chipmunks. So, both of these species are in intraspecific competition. Competing with an individual from the same species is harder than competing with members of other species. For example, squirrels compete with other squirrels for not only food (acorns), but also shelter and mates. However, they also compete with some other species, such as deer and acorn weevils, for acorns. Furthermore, they are both prey for many of the same predators, such as hawks, raccoons, foxes, and weasels.
Explanation:
Answer:
330
Explanation:
A codon is the sequence of three nucleotides on mRNA that refers for particular amino acid during translation (protein synthesis) process. The four nucleotides arrange themselves in various combinations to produce different codons. The tRNA with corresponding anticodon attach the particular amino acid to polypeptide chain during translation.
Remember there is always a stop (UAA) and start codon (AUG) for the synthesis of polypeptide and stop codon does not contribute for any amino acid. It just terminate the polypeptide chain synthesis. We know that a codon is made up of three nucleotide so our calculation will be.
993-stop codon =990
990/3=330
So that's why 330 amino acid will be incorporated in the polypeptide chain.
