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

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.

Why can algae and cyanobacteria be considered indicators of productivity as well as of pollution
Gelneren [198K]

Algae and Cyanobacteria could mean life is flourishing and is a good food source for some fish in moderation- but if there's a lot of fertilizer runoff, they can grow too quickly and be counterproductive for the environment

DNA does all but which of the following?
siniylev [52]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-is read by ribosomes during the process of translation.

Explanation:

The DNA is a nucleic acid made up of nucleotides which serves as a genetic material of the cell. It stores the information required by the cell in the form of codons made up of nitrogenous bases. The DNA after transcription forms a messenger molecule called mRNA which is read by the ribosomes to code for specific amino acid which binds to form the proteins, the building block of the body.  

Since the mRNA is read by the ribosomes during translation and not DNA directly, therefore, the selected option is the correct answer.

In a study on the biological bases of learning, lab rat a is given a drug that blocks dopamine activity in its brain. thereafter
Anvisha [2.4K]
We should expect that the rat will have have more difficulty in learning the task compared to a normal rat. This is because the rat has been injected with a certain drug that oppresses the dopamine activity. And then the rat is placed in an operant chamber where a lever-pressing task is shaped through positive reinforcement.
