Answer:

After a cell was treated with a certain chemical, the  ribosomes stopped functioning. The cell activity immediately affected by this change in ribosome function is protein synthesis.

Explanation:

The basic structural units of all living things are known as cells. Inside the cells, specialized structures called ribosomes are present, which synthesize proteins. The protein synthesis in a eukaryotic cell consists of two processes, transcription and translation.

The transcription process takes place in nucleus, where the information from a DNA strand is copied into a single stranded messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule using RNA polymerase enzyme. During the ending of transcription, the completed mRNA strand detaches from DNA and exits the nucleus and goes into a ribosome in the cytoplasm. In the ribosome, translation occurs where the genetic code in mRNA is read and protein is synthesized. These proteins are used by cells to perform important functions such as repairing cellular damage, maintain cellular structure, create hormones, cell division etc.

Explain why some peas in the experiment produced carbon dioxide
Stells [14]
The peas haven't start germinating, which means no leaves. They can't undergo photosynthesis to produce oxygen. At this stage they are still undergoing respiration, which produce carbon dioxide.

Gold has a specific heat of 0.129 J/(g×°C). How many joules of heat energy are required to raise the temperature of 15 grams of
Elodia [21]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 121.905 \ J  }}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the energy given mass, specific heat, and change in temperature. Therefore, we must use this formula;

q= mc \Delta T

The mass is 15 grams and the specific heat is 0.129 J/(g×°C). Let's calculate the change in temperature.

  • ΔT= final temperature - initial temperature
  • ΔT= 85 °C- 22°C = 63°C

Now we know all the values:

m= 15 \ g \ \\c= 0.129 \ J / (g* \textdegree C) \\\Delta T= 63 \ \textdegree C

Substitue the values into the formula.

q= (15 \ g)( 0.129 \ J / (g* \textdegree C)) ( 63 \ \textdegree C)

Multiply the first numbers together. The grams will cancel.

q= (1.935 \ J/ \textdegree C) ( 63 \ \textdegree C)

Multiply again, this time the degrees Celsius cancels.

q= 121.905 \ J

<u>121.905 Joules</u> are required.

lyudmila [28]
C. Although Alpha Centauri B is similar in size to the sun, it is much further away from earth. The sun is 8 minutes away from earth at the speed of light, while Alpha Centauri B and earth is more than 4 light years apart.

The first division of meiosis is called a reduction division. This is because
katen-ka-za [31]

The correct answer is: the mother cell is diploid, but the products of the first division are haploid.

Meiosis is cell division with the purpose to produce the gametes: sperm and eggs. Meiosis is a two-step division process:

• meiosis I- Homologues pairs (chromosome pairs an organism receives from parents, one from mother, one from father) separate during this phase  

•  meiosis II – Separation of sister chromatids.
