Fossils of Glossopteris, a type of fern, are found in Antarctica. How does this support the theory that the continents have move

d over time?
A. Glossopteris was probably caused to Antarctica by the movement of Australia.
B. The presence of Glossopteris in Antarctica does not supposr the theory that the continents have moved over time.
C. Glossopteris seeds were probably carried to Antarctica by volcano caused by the movement of tectonic plates.
D. Antactica is too cold to support ferns now, so it must have been in different, warmer location in the past.

<span>The correct answer is d. Antarctica must have been in a different warmer location in the past. The presence of Glossopteris in Antarctia proves that the continent was located closer to the equator and have since drifted to the south pole. This observation supports the theory of continental drift. </span>

A specialized protein in saliva breaks up starch molecules in food into smaller chains of simple sugars. In this reaction, which
Anarel [89]

Answer:

option d, b, c

Explanation:

Starch molecules taken into the mouth from food substances are processed to an extent of 30% of its digestion. this is carried out by a specialized protein/ an enzyme that is present in the saliva; called  amylase or ptyalin. this enzyme acts on the substrate molecule which in this case is starch molecules and convert it into smaller chains of simple sugars that includes maltose and dextrin which is digested in the small intestine.

Why does your skin remain red after a bad sunburn? a) Blisters form, lifting the epidermal layer. b) Inflammation causes increas
Mandarinka [93]

Skin remains red after a bad sun burn because:

inflammation causes increased blood flow.

Explanation:

When our skin is exposed to sun rays , the epidermal layer starts getting damaged. The damage to the cell caused by  sun rays triggers the  melanin secretion. Increased secretion of melanin results in darkening of the exposed region .

However, the damage and inflammation to the skin increases blood flow to the skin, this causes reddening of the skin.

Thymine in DNA occurs as the result of thymidylate synthase creating _______, which then undergoes _______ to _______, then to _
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Thymine in DNA occurs as the result of thymidylate synthase creating deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP), which then undergoes phosphorylation to deoxythymidine diphosphate (dTDP), then to Deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP), and incorporated into DNA by the DNA polymerase (DNA pol). Thymine in tRNA arises post-transcriptionally, by S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methylation of a uridine 5'-monophosphate (UMP) residue in RNA.

Explanation:

Thymidylate synthase is an enzyme involved in <em>de novo</em> DNA synthesis. This enzyme (thymidylate synthase) catalyzes the transfer of the one-carbon group from 5,10-methylene-tetrahydrofolate (5,10-CH2-THF) to deoxyuridine monophosphate (dUMP) and subsequent methylation to produce deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP), which is then phosphorylated to deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP) by kinases and incorporated into DNA. On the other hand, specific tRNA methylases catalyze the methylation of transference RNA (tRNA) by using S-adenosylmethionine as a methyl donor. Since tRNA methylation is a post-transcriptional modification, this chemical reaction is considered an epitranscriptomic modification on the RNA molecule.
