(E) none of the above statements are true
rain almost always comes from west to east so the western side of the mountain ranges would get more rain. A and C are not very relevant to the question<span />
Carbon atoms have 4 valence electrons. That allows them to make 4 covalent bonds. That means they can make really big molecules. All the organic molecules have Carbon in them.
Answer:
5556
Explanation:
If a DNA polymerase synthesizes in average 50 nucleotides/second, that means that in three hours (10800 seconds) it synthesizes about 540000 nucleotides.
However, if the human genome is composed of 3000000000 (3 billion) base pairs (nucleotids), the minimum number of DNA polymerases (working in the same number of origins of replication) to finish the duplication of all the genome in three hours is 5555,5. (3000000000/540000). As we know there is no half polymerase, so we round to 5556.
5556 molecules of DNA polymerases acting on 5556 origins of replication are needed.
Answer:
<u>B. Animals do not use carbon dioxide as an energy source; they use carbohydrates.</u>
Explanation:
The most readily form of energy that an animal requires is carbohydrate molecules. Monosaccharide carbohydrates can be easily broken down and hence are the best sources of energy. Carbohydrates are broken down in the process of cellular respiration to generate ATP. ATP is the energy driving molecule which is required by every cell of an organisms body to carry out its normal metabolic functions. Hence, animals use carbohydrates as a source of energy, not carbon dioxide.
