Catabolism/destructive metabolism. Both terms are used to describe the process of breaking down complex molecules for its stored energy.
Mars and Moon are the locations from which meteorites would come.
Option (c);
<u>EXPLANATION: </u>
- The meteorites found on Earth look like martian crystal rocks.
- These might be first ejected into space during a collision of an asteroidal object with Moon or Mars and then it got into the Earth orbit because of the force produced during the collision.
- There are around seventy meteorites recognised to have come from the planet Mars till up to the present date.
- There are three types of meteorites such as Martian meteorites and a sample of two lunar meteorites.
- To identify the origin of the meteorite, the scientist tries to identify the type of rock followed by analysing the chemical composition and then try to identify its age.
Cloning and identifying genetically caused diseases
Molecular genetics is scientific study of composition of genes. This field is a subcategory of biology and heredity which is responsible for unearthing and delving the anatomy and physiology of the genes. This field helps us to understand and find evidence in the compounds, substances and elements found and synthesized in our genes and what contains in our nucleic acides –RNA and DNA –framework of our chromosomes. And also the origin and history of how genes came to be. These are codes and like-signals that makes us who we are in a macro-perspective.
The main reason that most farmers use stem cuttings rather than just planting a seed is that a tree's genetic variation will occur. The seeds of many fruit trees tend to vary differently from the parent, because seeds themselves are produced by sexual reproduction (i.e they receive genes from a male and female to form). As they are a cross from two sets of genes, many fruit trees are not “true to seed”. Their seeds will produce a generally different variety of tree from the parent. When using stem cuttings, it's almost like a cloning process.
