The summer solstice (or estival solstice), also known as midsummer, occurs when a planet's rotational axis, in either northern or southern hemispheres, is most inclined toward the star that it orbits. Earth's maximum axial tilt toward the Sun is 23° 26′. This happens twice each year (once in each hemisphere), at which times the Sun reaches its highest position in the sky as seen from the north or the south pole.

<span>The appropriate answer is A. the hemisphere is is tilted toward the sun and the sun reaches its highest point in the sky. This usually occurs on June 20 or 21. At this time the northern hemisphere experiences its longest day. Summer in the nothern hemisphere means that the earth is tilted towards the sun and receives sun rays that are more direct. </span>

Answer:

The correct answer is- C. double or single-stranded DNA or double or single-stranded RNA.

Explanation:

All the viruses are intracellular parasites which means they obtain their nutrition from their host. Viruses do not have cellular level of organization. They only have their nucleic acid which is surrounded by a protein coat called a capsid.

The nucleic acid in viruses can be of different types. It can be single or double-stranded DNA or single or double-stranded RNA. Their genome can be linear or circular. They inject their genetic material in their host and introduce it in the host genome. Therefore the correct answer is C.

What is "set point theory"? are toxins involved? describe how body size and homeostasis are related?
guajiro [1.7K]
<span>Answer: Set point theory suggests that our body has a particular range of weight that it is comfortable in, usually about 10% of a body’s weight. That means, if you weight 175, you have about an 18 pound range; if you weigh 325, you have about a 33 pound range. Most people lose and gain within this set point on a pretty regular basis. They may put on a little weight in the winter and lose it in the spring. Or get busy and drop a little weight. Or gain a little when stressed. Or lose a little during an illness. Or whatever. Movement within this range is normal. However, movement outside of that range is not. In fact the body seeks homeostasis – that is the body seeks to stay within that range. To move outside of that range something must go on, something must happen to the body.</span>
