liubo4ka [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: a.The study is funded by a group with a financial interest in the outcome.

Explanation:

Junk science is a term that is used to describe scientific research or data that is false and fraudulent and is usually presented in order for the people behind it to be able to push an agenda or assertion.  

If a study is funded by a group with a financial interest in the outcome, the research could end up being junk science as the backs might persuade the researchers to manipulate the data in such a way that it would favor them.

For instance, a Big Tobacco funded research into lung cancer finding that smoking does not contribute as much as previously thought to lung cancer

What is transcription and why is it important in making proteins
Nostrana [21]

Answer:The goal of transcription is to make a RNA copy of a gene's DNA sequence. For a protein-coding gene, the RNA copy, or transcript, carries the information needed to build a polypeptide (protein or protein subunit). Eukaryotic transcripts need to go through some processing steps before translation into proteins.

zlopas [31]
<span>Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) consists of an adenosine molecule bonded to three phophate groups in a row. In a process called cellular respiration, chemical energy in food is converted into chemical energy that the cell can use, and stores it in molecules of ATP. This occurs when a molecule of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) uses the energy released during cellular respiration to bond with a third phosphate group, becoming a molecule of ATP. So the energy from cellular respiration is stored in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups of ATP. When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy stored in the bond that the cell can use to do work. Now its back to being ADP and is ready to store the energy from respiration by bonding with a 3rd phosphate group. ADP and ATP constantly convert back and forth in this manner.</span>

When there is not enough carbon dioxide in a plant, a process called photorespiration may occur. This process uses the excess ox
sergiy2304 [10]

A prolonged period of photorespiration would affect a plant, giving a significant evolutionary advantage to plant species in dry climates.

<h3>What is the difference between photorespiration and respiration?</h3>

One of the basic differences between photorespiration and respiration concerns the effect of O2 on the two processes. Respiration saturates when O2 reaches approximately 2%, while photorespiration does not reach saturation in a pure O2 atmosphere.

<h3>Under what conditions does photorespiration occur?</h3>

Photorespiration is an expensive metabolic pathway that occurs when the Calvin Cycle enzyme rubisco acts on oxygen instead of carbon dioxide.

With this information, we can conclude that A prolonged period of photorespiration would affect a plant, giving a significant evolutionary advantage to plant species in dry climates.
