Weathering breaks down and loosens the surface minerals of rock so they can be transported away by agents of erosion such as water, wind and ice. There are two types of weathering: mechanicaland chemical. Mechanical weathering is the disintegration of rock into smaller and smaller fragments.
Hope this helped ya
Explanation:
A single nucleotide-pair substitution missense mutation causes a change of a single amino acid into another. Aa a result, the produced protein will have an almost normal sequence except for one amino acid.
On the other hand, a frameshift mutation changes the Open Reading Frame (ORF) of the ribosome. The ribosome moves along the mRNA every three nucleotides (codons) and translates them into amino acids that will form the nascent protein. If there is a frameshift mutation (an insertion or deletion of a number of nucleotides not multiple of three) the ribosome will "read" the mRNA differently and will identify different codons than the wild-type sequence, so a large number of amino acids will be different in the mutated protein.
No, since it is an island separate from the mainland Ecuador and has been uniquely isolated over the past several hundred thousand years, the species on the Galapagos Islands have had time to evolve differently and separately than those in Ecuador, leading to many different, diverse species on the Galapagos that don't exist in Ecuador
Answer: The answer should be A: Precipitation.
Explanation: When we take a look at this question, it mentions that there is dew, fog, and clouds on the planet. Infiltration would have probably been evaporated from the ground and became a cloud. The dew and fog would be the condensation. The astronomers notice that there is never any rainfall, and precipitation in the water cycle is rainfall. So therefore, the missing part of the water cycle would be precipitation
