Answer:

They have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms

( Gradpoint )

Explanation:

Misha Larkins [42]3 years ago

Saturated fatty acids are 'saturated' with hydrogen meaning they contain the maximum number of hydrogen. This causes them to be straight on the molecular level, allowing them to be packed close together other saturated fatty acids. Thus, they tend to be solids at room temperature. Examples of saturated fats are butter and the solid white fat you see on raw meat.

Describe the steps in transcription that require complementary base pairing.
nalin [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Transcription takes place in nucleus in the presence of the enzyme RNA polymerase.

During transcription, the code present in DNA gets transcribed into the code in mRNA.  (messenger RNA)

RNA even though is a single stranded shows base pairing.

The pre-mRNA gets created from the DNA.

DNA has two strands, one of these strands acts as coding and another non coding strand.

The DNA shows base pairing with AGTC.   [A-Adenine, G- Guanine, T-Thymine and C- Cytosine]

Whereas mRNA base pairing with AGUC.  [ U- Uracil ]

Here in mRNA, instead of thymine, uracil gets paired.

According to base pairing of coding strand/sense strand of DNA, complementary bases pairs in 5'---->3' direction in mRNA.

The mRNA created looks exactly like the non-coding strand/sense strand of DNA except instead of thymine, uracil gets replaced.

The pre-RNA undergoes splicing, capping and tailing to form mature mRNA.

Wind can erode rocks especially in desert areas select all spheres that are interacting in this situation
Murrr4er [49]
Erosion is brought about by the forces of nature or human activity: water, wind, earthquakes, mining, quarrying, etc. In the desert, there is very little water that can cause weathering or erosion, so the most probable answer is wind or maybe even animal activity.
