Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

The Southwestern part of the U.S. is characterized by the presence of large mountains, canyons, plateaus, and some plain areas. These features are basically controlled by the continuous volcanic activity that is caused due to the sharing of a convergent boundary and transform boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate.

The eruption of volcano often releases a significant amount of harmful gases and other particles such as ashes, lava. Pyroclastic materials also erupt. These materials erupted for a long time in the geological past, which were solidified and formed a huge mass of rocks. Due to this continuous eruption and deposition of materials from the past, it gradually leads to an increase in the elevation of the nearby area. This is how volcanic activities configures the land areas.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

g A mutation occurs upstream of gene A in the region encoding the ribosome binding site, making it bind more weakly to the ribos
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

it is expected that the mutation results in a reduced initiation of translation and thereby decreasing the level of the protein A, while it does not change the level of mRNA A

Explanation:

Translation in bacteria starts with the formation of the initiation complex which is composed of the small ribosomal subunit, the messenger RNA (mRNA), initiation factors and the initiator transference RNA (tRNA) containing N-formyl-methionine. The small ribosomal subunit binds to a polypurine stretch of variable length in the mRNA called 'the Shine-Dalgarno sequence'. A mutation in this sequence reduces the affinity of the ribosome for the mRNA, thereby, in this case, decreasing the level of protein A. Since transcription occurs before translation, it is expected that this mutation does not change the level of expression of the mRNA A.

Briefly differentiate "White Matter" & "Grey Matter".
evablogger [386]

Answer:

The CNS, or central nervous system is comprised of neurons, the cell units that form it. These cells, in turn, are formed by their cell bodies, the dendrites on them and the terminal ends of the axons, which are like the connectors, or roadways, for neurons. When viewed on a microscope, brain tissue, particularly, looks stained with two different colors: grey, or pinkisk, for the grey matter, and whiter for the white matter, which are the axons. This is basically why the two are called grey matter and white matter of the CNS.

So one difference between these two matters is the color they display when viewed. The second is the parts of the neuron that form the two; while the white matter is formed from the neuronal axons, the grey matter is formed by the dendrites, cell bodies and axonal terminals. A third differentiation is that most synaptic activity takes place in the grey matter, while most conduction of information from the cell bodies is performed by the axons.
