Answer:

They are caused by an increase in global temperatures

Explanation:

Global warming will cause a change in the weather patterns of a region – called climate change. A place could experience extreme weather such as increased dryness or wetness. This is mainly due to takeup of this heat by the oceans hence influencing global currents.

As the oceans become warmer, they are able to absorb more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This causes these water to have a higher acidity than normal because of the formation of carbonic acid.

Which of the following is an advantage of sexual reproduction?

Juli2301 [7.4K]

The correct option is D.
Sexual form of reproduction leads to increased genetic diversity as a result of the two different reproductive cells that are coming together and the biological assortment that occur during the process of cell division. Increased genetic diversity enhance variations among living organisms and increased their potentials to survive in their environments.

The scientific study of life, called _____, can be organized around several themes. As the biological hierachy builds from molec

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The scientific study of life, called Biology, can be organized around several themes. As the biological hierachy builds from molecules on up to ecosystems, each level has  emergent properties that result from interactions among component parts. Life's basic unit of structure and function is the cell, which occurs in two basic forms- prokaryotic and eukaryotic . As organisms interact with the environment, nutrients and chemicals cycle within an ecosystem, while energy flows one way from sunlight -> chemical energy -> heat. According to the core theme of evolution all of life is related by common descent. Life was diversified as natural selection had led to the gradual accumulation of adaptations that fit populations to the environment.

Explanation:

Emergent properties- Properties that is exhibited by a group of individuals as a result of interaction among them.

Evolution- the process by which populations develop new characteristic and become more efficient than their ancestors.

Natural selection- A phenomena in which only fittest organisms of a population are allowed to survive in a given environment. This play a key role in evolution.

The mrna codon CUU could mutate to C___ and still code for leucine, which could be a neutral mutation. What is the blank?

Lelechka [254]

A codon is a sequence of three bases found on the messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule which is translated to produce an amino acid. Each amino acid is coded by one or more specific codons. If the codon is changed through a mutation, the amino acid produced may be different. However, in this case, the other codons that produce Leucine are:

UUA, UUG, CUU, CUC, CUA and CUG

So the code CUU could mutate to CUC, CUA or CUG and leucine would still be produced.
