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.

Eric follows a vegetarian eating pattern, and he wants to know whether he needs to take any vitamin and mineral supplements. wha
Reil [10]

It would be most important for Eric to find out his <em>zinc, iron and vitamin B12 (or  riboflavin) levels, and ensure that he is obtaining adequate amounts of these vitamins and minerals through vegetarian sources </em>.

A vegetarian diet is typically low in zinc rich foods, since meat, shell fish and eggs are the most abundant sources of zinc. In order to ensure that he obtains sufficient zinc, Eric should make sure he consumes vegetarian zinc sources such as legumes, lentils, dairy, nuts and seeds on a daily basis.

Since iron and vitamin B12 are also difficult to obtain from vegetarian sources, Eric should consume iron rich foods such as spinach, kale, whole grains, broccoli, legumes,etc., on a daily basis. As for vitamin B12, daily supplementation of 2.4 μg is recommended for vegetarians. Alternatively, riboflavin fortified cereals and grains are also recommended to meet daily riboflavin requirements.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

Peach orchards

Explanation:

Using the Elton's diversity hypothesis, the worst effect of Asian long-horned beetle will be peach orchard.

This is because according to the Elton's diversity hypothesis, a more diverse population is less susceptible to invasion by exotic pest. of the options, peach orchard is the less diverse and would most likely be more affected.
