To store and transfer genetic materials.

In the name nucleic, you can sort of see nucleus and since the nucleus is where DNA is stored, you can use this to remember that the nucleic acid holds genetic materials.

Hope this helps!

A. Air over the lake will reach its highest temperature later in the day and will stay warm longer than air over the ground.

Explanation:

The most likely observation the student will record is that the air over the lake will reach its highest temperature later in the day and will stay warm longer than air over the ground.

This phenomenon between the differences in land and water temperature causes land sea breeze to occur.

Water has a very high specific heat capacity.
This implies it takes more heat to cause a monumental increase in its temperature.
It is expected that the student will observe that the air over the lake body will reach its highest temperature later in the day. It would have gotten heated with time.

A body such as water in a lake with a high specific heat capacity stays warm for a longer period of time compared to other substances.

Metals do not have high specific heat capacity and would not stay warm for long. They quickly lose heat.

Why is potassium able to diffuse easily in and out of cells? because potassium has a greater concentration in the intracellular

umka2103 [35]

The answer is Because the resting plasma membrane is more permeable to potassium

Plasma membrane is more permeable to potassium(kalium) than sodium(natrium) which makes it easier to move between intracellular fluid and extracellular fluid. But the concentration of the ion still regulated strictly by the cell using pump and transporter in their membrane. The pump is doing active movement(against gradient of concentration) and need ATP to do so.
