Exothermic reactions lose heat and are hot to the touch (Think explosion)

Endothermic reactions gain heat and are cold to the touch (Think of an instant ice pack where you pop it to make it cold)

Endothermic reactions are reactions that take in energy. This is usually in the form of heat. An example could be evaporation because heat is being absorbed by water and molecules are moving away from each other.  

Reactions that give off energy to their surroundings, usually in the form of heat, are called exothermic reactions. An example of an exothermic reaction is striking a match. Lighting a match gives out heat.

<u>Evolution is sometimes a controversial:</u>

Evolution is the most scientific explanation about how the life forms of earth originated and turned into the form that we see today.

I don’t think there should be a controversy because there is no other explanation that proves to be more logical than the theory of evolution. Evolution is a theory that has several supporting proofs and the theory itself was formed after several years of detailed study and observation.

I don’t think alternatives to evolution should be taught at schools. Alternative theories to evolution are based on various religious beliefs which lack a scientific basis.

Schools should be a place that enables students to do productive scientific thinking and teaching alternatives to evolution wouldn’t be a good idea.

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D) The four nitrogen bases of DNA combine is threes to produce only 20 amino acids.</em>

Explanation:

Our DNA is made up of four nucleotide bases. The genetic codon can produce 20 different amino acids based on the sequence. The genetic code which codes for a certain amino acid remains the same for all types of organisms whether be prokaryotes, animals or plants. Hence, the genetic code is considered universal as the four nitrogen bases combine to form only the 20 different amino acids in all types of organisms alive.
