Is the temperature profile in the thermosphere more like that of the troposphere or the stratosphere?

podryga [215]3 years ago
5 0

The correct answer is: stratosphere.

This is because their temperatures are rising instead of decreasing.

There are 4 primary layers of the atmosphere on Earth:  

Troposphere (6-20km), the layer that we live in, where the weather occurs. Only nitrogen and oxygen present.

Stratosphere  (20-50 km), where the airplanes fly, contains the ozone layer, which absorbs harmful radiation from the sun.

Mesosphere (50-85 km), the coldest region of Earth’s atmosphere (-100 C), protective layer

Thermosphere (80-690), the hottest (1500 C) and the thickest layer which consists of the ionosphere and the exosphere.

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-DNA polymerase can only add nucleotides to the free 3' end

Explanation:

DNA replication process produces the exact copy of DNA which requires various enzymes. The function of adding a nucleotide to the daughter strand is performed by the enzyme called DNA polymerase.

The DNA polymerase enzyme catalyses the process of DNA replication which requires energy provided by the dNTP. The enzyme adds new nucleotides at 3'-OH end of the DNA which favour the reaction energetically.  

Thus, the new DNA strand appears to be elongated in the 5' to 3' direction.

Give SOME EXAMPLES OF NATURAL CYCLE CHECKPOINTS .
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

For example, delays in mitosis are often ascribed to 'activation' of the mitotic checkpoint, a descriptor that fails to recognize that the checkpoint by definition is active as the cell starts mitosis. Conversely, the completion of mitosis in the presence of misaligned chromosomes is often automatically interpreted to indicate a defective checkpoint, even though in the absence of critical testing alternative interpretations are equally likely. In this article, we define the critical characteristics of checkpoints and illustrate how confusion generated by the inconsistent use of terminology may impede progress by fostering claims that mean very different things to different researchers. We will illustrate our points with examples from the checkpoint that controls progression through mitosis
