He tells her that often scientists do not favor pyramid of biomass because obtaining biomass requires advanced technology

The option C is correct.

Explanation:

The pyramid of biomass is the measure of the amount of biomass of living organisms present at every trophic level or unit area.

The biomass of pyramid is often not preferred by scientist because calculating the biomass is a tedious process.

It requires the heating of dead organism at high temperatures until a dry mass with constant value is obtained.

Although for biomass the size of the organism is taken into account but obtaining biomass requires advance technology.

The rate of biomass increase in organism in growth period is also tedious to measure.

Match each light behavior with its definition.
aalyn [17]

1-refraction

2-transmission

3-reflection

4-diffraction

<u>Explanation:</u>

Refraction is the bending of a wave when it enters a medium where its speed is different.Refraction is responsible for image formation by lenses and the eye.

Transmission of light is the moving of electromagnetic waves through a material. This transmission can be reduced, or stopped, when light is reflected off the surface or absorbed by the molecules in the material.

Reflection is when light bounces off an object.Light is reflected when there is a mismatch between materials through which the light is travelling.

Diffraction is the slight bending of light. The amount of bending depends on the relative size of the wavelength of light to the size of the opening.

If a code on a dna molecule for a specific amino acid is cta, what would the messesnger rna codon be?
finlep [7]
The RNA codon will be GAU, pairing Cytosine-Thymine-Adenine DNA codon with Guanine-Adenine-Uracil RNA codon. This codon is the Amino Acid, Aspartic Acid. In this codon we see Uracil which is the counterpart of Thymine in the RNA.

What conditions cause cells to break down fat molecules?
Alexeev081 [22]
Well, think of it this way.

When you do not eat that much, your body fat lowers little by little, but considering that this is a question, I'd say starvation. Think of it as when you fast (Not eating all night say to go to a doctors appointment) your body stores the fatty acids to make ketone! The ketone will build a bloodstream that flows to the brain and other parts of the body!

To sum it up, starvation.
