Answer:

They accurately compare the current atmosphere with the previous one, by assessing the amount of atmospheric gases present today, with the amount of atmospheric gases trapped in ice cores that they believe are millennial, that is, they have existed for thousands of years ago.

Explanation:

As we know, it is difficult to compare current characteristics of the planet earth with characteristics that the planet had in the past, thousands of years ago. This is because the ancient characteristics on earth are not fully available to be analyzed, since most of them have been modified over time.

To do this, scientists need to find factors that may have existed thousands of years ago and assess whether these factors have any account of the characteristics of the earth. In the case of atmospheric characteristics, it is common for scientists to compare the current atmosphere with the atmosphere of thousands of years ago, with the assessment of the amount of atmospheric gases trapped in ancient ice cores, with the amount of atmospheric gases present in the atmosphere today.

AveGali [126]

Answer: a peptide containing alternating arginines and alanines.

Explanation:

As the mRNA has a repeating unit of CGCG.

Now if we extend the units with more CG (CGCGCGCGCGCG) the pairing will be as CGC-GCG-CGC-GCG. and if we see the amino acids coded by these codons are arginine for CGC and alanine for GCG.

As this synthetic mRNA doesn't require any initiation codon (AUG) thus the polypeptide will not have methionine, which is the first amino acid in every polypeptide coded by the initiation codon.

Thus, the synthetic mRNA will code for peptide having alternating arginines and alanines amino acids.

Which structure is unique to eukaryotic cells?

Lena [83]

The answers D. Nucleus because both Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cells have DNA (its circular in PK and Linear in EK).
Both cells have ribosomes and both have a cell membrane. However Prokaryotic does not have a nucleus and only Nucleoid DNA.

The blue wiggle is the nucleoid DNA, and the red dots are ribosomes
