Answer:

1.8 pounds of Nitrogen per year; (based on 1000 square feet per application) for cool season grasses.

Explanation:

The above application shows an average of 0.9 pounds of inorganic and organic nitrogen per 1000 square feet per application . Therefore not more than 0.9 pounds of nitrogen will be needed per application.And for a whole year 1.8 pounds of Nitrogen per year will be needed.

This calculation was based on 1000 per square.But most lawn are not 1000 per square, therefore calculation can be done using the 1000 per squares as the reference point .

AMMONIA and its solutions, AMMONIUM NITRATE AND UREA (which is organic source)are the sources of this Nitrogen.

Urea is non -explosive in nature and solid. However, ammonia and ammonium Nitrate are both explosive.

question 8

DNA is copied into mRNA during the process of Transcription

Transcription is the process by which information in the strand of DNA is copied into new molecule of messenger mRNA.
The mRNA formed is a complimentary to DNA strand whereby replace of C with G, and A with U and T with A.

Question 9

Translation occurs in the ribosome , the organelle responsible for building proteins.

Ribosome are responsible for protein synthesis.
They receive messenger RNA sent from the nucleus and build protein.
translation has three steps that is

initiation - ribosome assemble around the target mRNA.
elongation- The tRNA transfer amino acid to tRNA corresponding to the next codon.
Three phases of translation initiation polymerase bind to DNA strand and move along until the small ribosomal subunit binds to DNA.

Many genes respond to environmental conditions, reacting to different environmental contexts in different ways. this characteris

andrew11 [14]

Our genes can be affected by the environment and change the way our traits are displayed, called the phenotype. However, changes in phenotype have an underlying genotypic source. Epigenetics or epigenetic changes are changes in the way traits are expressed as an effect of the environment (i.e. food we ate, chemicals in the body, environmental stresses), without changes in the DNA. Simply put, in epigenetics, some parts of the DNA are turned on or off in response to environmental conditions.
