Answer:
Sigma factors bind to the promoter region of a particular gene and facilitating the binding of RNA Polymerase to the promoter region (formation of the RNA polymerase holoenzyme complex) in order initiate transcription of the gene.
Put simply - Helps RNA Polymerase do it's job.
Pthere are many factors it could be cholesterol, fat Etc...
Answer:
Similarities: both are chemical messengers, both can have (but don't necessarily have) similar structures (made from amino acids), both can be produced by the central nervous system (hypothalamus produces some hormones), certain molecules can act as both hormones and neurotransmitters (example: norepinephrine).
Differences: neurotransmitters are released by neurons across a synaptic gap, have very short distances to travel, and act very quickly on the neighboring cell. Hormones are released by glands and often have to travel longer distances, which means that they are slower-acting. Also, hormones are typically used for regulation (negative feedback) while neurotransmitters are used for stimulation of a neighboring cell.

Explanation:
Fossils are defined as the remains of ancient organisms. Fossils are obtained from impressions left after an organism decays. There are different kinds of fossils depending on the material they are made of and how they were formed. Some fossils are made from minerals that are the replacement of the organic matter of the ancient organism, or are the replacement of mud that came from footprints. Alternatively, fossils could be plant resins or tar that preserved a specimen within.
