For #1, the last choice is correct. A geocentric model means that the earth is the center of the universe while all other bodies orbit around it. A heliocentric model means that the sun is the center of the inverse while the other bodies orbit around it. The shared feature is that the other bodies in space move in circular orbits.

For #2, the first answer is correct. When the moon is between the earth and the sun, positions X and Z are being pulled by the moon’s gravitational force, creating high tides at these places. However, positions W and Y are experiencing low tides because no gravitational pull is making them high.

Describe the structures of proteins and nucleic acids, and then explain the relationship between these two molecules within a ce
barxatty [35]
<span>Proteins are large biological molecules consisting of one or more chains of amino acids.  Proteins differ from one another primarily in their sequence of amino acids, which is decided by the nucleotide sequence of their make-up, and which usually results in folding of the protein into a three-dimensional structure that determines its job. 
    </span><span>Nucleic acids are linear polymers (chains) of nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of three things: a purine , nitrogenous base a pentose sugar, and a phosphate group.  
    </span><span>
 Basically Proteins are chains of amino acids, nucleic acids are chains of nucleosides (base+sugar+phosphate), and the sequence of nucleic acid results in the specific sequence of amino acids in the protein, finnally determining its shape and function. </span>

Eric follows a vegetarian eating pattern, and he wants to know whether he needs to take any vitamin and mineral supplements. wha
Reil [10]

It would be most important for Eric to find out his <em>zinc, iron and vitamin B12 (or  riboflavin) levels, and ensure that he is obtaining adequate amounts of these vitamins and minerals through vegetarian sources </em>.

A vegetarian diet is typically low in zinc rich foods, since meat, shell fish and eggs are the most abundant sources of zinc. In order to ensure that he obtains sufficient zinc, Eric should make sure he consumes vegetarian zinc sources such as legumes, lentils, dairy, nuts and seeds on a daily basis.

Since iron and vitamin B12 are also difficult to obtain from vegetarian sources, Eric should consume iron rich foods such as spinach, kale, whole grains, broccoli, legumes,etc., on a daily basis. As for vitamin B12, daily supplementation of 2.4 μg is recommended for vegetarians. Alternatively, riboflavin fortified cereals and grains are also recommended to meet daily riboflavin requirements.
