Answer: Radiant energy; Law of conservation of energy  

Explanation:  

The radiant energy is the type of energy which is released by the sun. It the ultimate source of energy on the earth.

The energy from the sun is trapped by the plant and it is converted from the radiant energy into chemical energy .

A part of this energy is transferred to animals and some part is released in the environment in the form of heat energy.

Then this transformation of energy  is known as conservation of energy because energy is not lost it is just converted from one form to another form.

100 POINTS!!! ANSWER ASAP [5 SENTENCE ANSWER] Explain how density, mass and volume are connected and dependent on each other.
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Mass is how heavy something is, volume tells you how big it is, and density is mass divided by volume. you can usually think of weight and mass as the same thing.Volume is the size of an object, and mass is its weight. Density is calculated by dividing an object’s mass by its volume. Density is sometimes used to describe other quantities divided by volume, such as energy density.

15. Which of the processes has more than one type of RNA involved?
erastova [34]

Answer:

Translation

Explanation:

Translation is the process by which mRNA is decoded and translated to produce a polypeptide sequence, otherwise known as a protein. This method of synthesizing proteins is directed by the mRNA and accomplished with the help of a ribosome, a large complex of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and proteins. In translation, a cell decodes the mRNA’s genetic message and assembles the brand-new polypeptide chain. Transfer RNA, or tRNA, translates the sequence of codons on the mRNA strand. The main function of tRNA is to transfer a free amino acid from the cytoplasm to a ribosome, where it is attached to the growing polypeptide chain. tRNAs continue to add amino acids to the growing end of the polypeptide chain until they reach a stop codon on the mRNA. The ribosome then releases the completed protein into the cell.

Genrish500 [490]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

You are studying a population of ground squirrels. You trap 100 individuals and find 9 that have a light colored coat and the rest have a dark coat. You know that light coat color is recessive in ground squirrels. What is the allele frequency for the light coat allele  and the dark coat allele? How many of the dark coated individuals do you expect to be heterozygotes at the coat color gene? Assume the population is at H-W equilibrium.

Answer: Allele frequency for light coat: q = 0.3;

              Allele frequency for dark coat: p = 0.7;

             There will be 42 heterozygote;

Explanation: A population in H-W equilibrium is a population which doesn't change from one generation to the next if there are no disturbing factors, as migration or mutation.

It follows the equation: p^{2}+2pq+q^{2}=1.

p represents the frequency of the dominant allele;

q represents the frequency of the recessive allele;

2pq represents heterozygote individuals;

The sum of frequencies of both alleles must be 1, i.e.: p+q=1

For the population of squirrels:

  • Frequency of recessive allele

q^{2} = \frac{9}{100}

q = \sqrt{\frac{9}{100}}

q = 0.3

  • Frequency of dominant allele

p+q=1

p=1-q

p=1-0.3

p = 0.7

  • Frequency of heterozygote

2pq = 2*0.7*0.3 = 0.42

In a population of 100 individuals: 0.42*100 = 42

The allele frequency for the light coat is 0.3; for the dark coat is 0.7.

It is expected to have 42 heterozygote individuals in this population.

Explain the mechanism of the movement of the human forelimbs
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Forelimb protraction starts with a rapid flexion of the shoulder joint bringing the humerus close to its maximum cranial rotation angle, almost in parallel to the mid-sagittal plane. This position has already been reached by the middle of the swing phase.
