Answer:

lagoon

Explanation:

As the estuary gets more and more sediments, the deposition of them is constantly on the rise, affecting the landscape and forming new geographical features. With the sediments constantly building up, they eventually cut off part of the water from the sea. They will form a closed pool-like feature, filled with water, and surrounded by sediments, cut off from the sea. It will have shallow water, and because the water is stagnant and shallow it will have higher temperature than the other water. This geographical feature is known as lagoon.

Answer:a) decreased chromatin condensation

Explanation:

During eukaryotic cell division a chromatin becomes obvious and it is simply a mass of genetic material made up of DNA and proteins which condenses to form chromosomes.

The chromatin primarily function in the compression the DNA into a unit so compacted that will be so tiny and can fit within the nucleus.

Chromatin condensation is driven by condensins and interactions between histones.

Condensins however, are large protein complexes whose central role in cell division is chromosome organization and segregation.

Chemical manipulation as stated above is decreases the rate of chromatin condensation.

In this metabolic process, the enzyme RNA polymerase binds RNA nucleotides (the substrates) together by catalyzing the formation
stira [4]

Answer:

TRANSCRIPTION

Explanation:

Transcription is the first process that occurs in the expression of a gene. It involves the synthesis of a mRNA molecule from a DNA template. The DNA molecule, which is located in the nucleus of an eukaryotic cell, is bound to by an enzyme called RNA polymerase in order to synthesize an mRNA molecule/strand.

RNA polymerase synthesizes a mRNA molecule using complementary base pairing rule i.e. Uracil base (U) is synthesized when Adenine (A) is read, Adenine when Thymine (T) is read, Guanine (G) when cytosine (C) is read, Cytosine when guanine is read. These nucleotide bases are then joined together via chemical bonding.

In a nutshell, RNA polymerase catalyzes the formation of a bond between the backbone sugar of one nucleotide base to the backbone phosphate of another nucleotide base in the metabolic process of TRANSCRIPTION.
