Answer:

The atmosphere can be divided into layers based on its temperature, as shown in the figure below. These layers are the troposphere, the stratosphere, the mesosphere and the thermosphere. A further region, beginning about 500 km above the Earth's surface, is called the exosphere.

The red line on the figure below shows how temperature varies with height (the temperature scale is given along the bottom of the diagram). The scale on the right shows the pressure. For example, at a height of 50 km, the pressure is only about one thousandth of the pressure at the ground.

RNA polymerase catalyzes the addition of many rNTPs to a growing RNA.
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

b. Elongation

Explanation:

During the start of the elongation phase of RNA synthesis, the sigma subunit of RNA polymerase of <em>E. coli</em> is released and NusA protein takes its place. This makes the RNA polymerase to move away from the promoter.

During the elongation phase of RNA synthesis, the enzyme DNA dependent RNA polymerase elongates the RNA strand by addition of ribonucleotides to the free 3'-OH end. The process occurs in 5' to 3' direction and the 3'-OH group serves as a nucleophile.

Natural selection involves energetic trade-offs between ________. Group of answer choices high survival rates of offspring and t
koban [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is ''high survival rates of offspring and the cost of parental care''

Explanation:

Natural selection is the differential reproduction of some genetic variants with respect to others. Natural selection favors individuals who maximize their total reproductive success throughout life, that is, it favors certain phenotypes or variants are associated with greater offspring and / or greater survival, that also means that selection will favor those who stop spending on a particular breed at the right time to invest in another, that is, the amount of energy invested in each of them. This same natural selection also favors those genes that make it effective when the body that carries them is in development to extract all possible parental investment from their parents.
