Explanation:

Earthquakes occur when elastic energy is accumulated slowly within the Earth's crust as a result of plate motions and then released suddenly at fractures in the crust called faults. The released energy travels in the form of waves called seismic waves. They always start at the focus. (A focus is where an earthquakes starting place.) The the power would start to travel and hit the  epicenter, an epicenter is the point on land directly above the focus, soon on the surface. There are three types of earthquakes, the Primary, Secondary, and surface waves. Primary waves cause the rocks they pass through to change in volume. These waves are the fastest traveling seismic waves and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. Also called P wave See Note at earthquake. Secondary waves start at the same time as primary waves. Secondary waves travel through Earth's interior at about half the speed of primary waves. Secondary waves are also called S waves. And Surface wave is a mechanical wave that propagates along the interface between differing media. A common example is gravity waves along the surface of liquids, such as ocean waves. Gravity waves can also occur within liquids, at the interface between two fluids with different densities.

Answer:

Active uptake (which I think you mean active transport) is important when the concentration gradient is against that of a certain substance, so it doesn't cross the membrane through diffusion or passive transport. It is sometimes necessary if a substance needs to move across a membrane but can't do so due to electrical charge or that there is a substance on the other side of the membrane preventing diffusion.

A pesticide that kills an insect by interfering with
Oxana [17]

Answer;

Ribosomes;


Explanation;

Ribosomes are organelles that are found inside a cell attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum or freely suspended in the cytoplasm.

The are responsible for the process of translation which synthesis proteins in the cell.

Therefore; a pesticide that kills an insect by interfering with

the production of proteins in the insect would

most directly affect the activity of ribosomes.

Populations adapt to changing environmental conditions as a result of __________. populations adapt to changing environmental co
barxatty [35]
Natural selection is the process that result in the adaptation of an organism to environment by means of selectively reproducing changes in its genotype, or genetic constitution. It is the a key mechanism of evolution. Charles Darwin popularised the term "natural selection" contrasting it with artificial selection, which is intentional, whereas natural selection is not.
To make it simple, let's have a group of beetle composing of green and some are brown as an example. here, there is a variation in traits. Since the environment could not support continuous population growth, not all species can reproduce to their full potential. Green beetles can easily be eaten by other species like birds compared to brown beetles. The surviving brown beetles will then generate brown offsprings because their trait has a genetic basis. Since more brown beetles survive and becomes more common in the population, the process continues until all individuals will eventually be brown. so basically, if you have variation, differential reproduction, and heredity, you will have evolution by natural selection as an outcome.

What is the function of mRNA (messenger RNA)?(1 point)
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Messenger RNA(mRNA) carries the genetic information of a portion of DNA needed to make a protein. Transfer RNA(tRNA) is also important for protein formation, as it binds to mRNA and amino acids and is crucial for translation.
