The term Southern Oscillation most nearly refers to a reversal of wind direction

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

Southern Oscillation, a component of the atmosphere in one large-scale interaction called El Niño / ENSO. The equatorial cycle fluctuates after irregular periods of about many years in response to alter in atmospheric pressure in the tropical Indo-Pacific.

With the weakening of the east-west wind during the southern oscillation phase, warm water may slide back west, increasing the flow of the equator up. Surface water temperatures and sea levels fall west and rise east, which is why this event is called El Niño.

Damm [24]

Given: The systolic arterial blood pressure observed for 20 dogs is normally distributed with a mean of 152 mm of mercury (Hg) and a standard deviation of 18 mm of Hg.  

To find: P(100 < 152)

Method: Calculation of Z-Score followed by the probability or area of the bell curve at X = 100.

Solution:

Mean u = 152, std s = 18

Z score = \frac{X-u}{s} = \frac{100-152}{18} = -2.89

The value of P(100<152) is calculated by looking at the value of Z in the Z score for the standard normal distribution given in the image.

P(Z=-2.89) = 0.0019

The P(Z = -2.89) corresponds to the area in the left tail of the bell curve.

Thus the probability of 100 mm Hg blood pressure is 0.0019.

Models are useful to scientists, but they can have drawbacks. For example, models can oversimplify a process or show only parts
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Here’s one possible answer:

Pros

Simple images make the process easy to understand.

The model accurately shows that protein synthesis has distinct stages.

Cons

The model doesn’t accurately show nucleotides in DNA and RNA.

The model doesn’t differentiate between the locations of processes. It fails to show which processes occur in the nucleus and which occur on the ribosome.

What does that leave as the source for the energy that is now in the fold molecules?
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

chaperonins

Members of the Hsp60 family (also called chaperonins) facilitate the folding of proteins into their native conformations. Each chaperonin consists of 14 subunits of approximately 60 kilodaltons (kd) each, arranged in two stacked rings to form a “double doughnut” structure

Explain the process of the electron transport chain. where do the molecules used in the process come from? what powers the proce
Advocard [28]
Process of Electron Transport Chain (ETC), is a series of transferring from electron donors to their acceptors.  It basically means a transfer from high energy molecule to a low-energy molecule.  This process of extracting energy by transfer is classified as a chemical reaction and we see it is the path taken of cellular respiration (NADH) and FADH2) and in photosynthesis, NADPH.  It starts with an electron, NADH and FADH2, when the electron donors release a proton gradient and it creates an imbalance.  Think of it as a see-saw with one heavy person on one end and a lighter one on the other end.  The protons actually attempt to defuse back across this see-saw of a membrane and it releases energy during the cross over which we call Chemiosmosis.
