Option A, Exfoliation, is the right answer.

The effects of fluctuating temperature on the rocks that causes the rock to break apart from the massive rock are known as Physical weathering. Freeze-thaw (occurs due to the water leakage into clefts, freezing and extending, and finally separating the rock) and Exfoliation (occurs as clefts form equal to the surface of the land a result of the conversion in pressure through uplift and abrasion) are the two chief varieties of physical weathering.

Thus, Exfoliation is the separation of consecutive thin crusts from huge rock such as basalt or granite.

A researcher is using the pUC18 vector to introduce a human gene into bacteria. He exposes bacteria to this recombinant molecule
allsm [11]

Answer:

The results from this experiment conclude that all of the resulting bacteria contain the pUC18 plasmid without the human gene.

The method of genetic engineering might seem very easy but in actual it is a very difficult task and most of the time a person won;t get the expected results. The chances of a vector to actually take up a recombinant DNA are very less. Even after this, the chances of a recombinant plasmid to enter a bacterial cell by transformation are very few.

How do the structure of adenine and
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
Adenine forms two hydrogen bonds with thymine in DNA while three hydrogen bonds are formed between guanine and cytosine.

Thymine and cytosine are pyrimidines because they have a single ring structure. Adenine and guanine are purines because they have a double ring structure.
