1 answer:

7 0

- The storm must be developing over warm water. The water must be at least 80 degrees Fahrenheit. The warm water provides the energy for increased evaporation of water from the ocean surface.

- The warm water must be at least 200 feet deep

- There should be very little wind shear in the area. Wind shear occurs when there is a difference in wind speed and direction over a short distance. Strong wind shear can stop the formation of hurricane eye walls.

Answer:

The organelles in an animal cell are as follows:

cell membrane, nucleus, nucleolus, nuclear membrane, cytosol, smooth endoplasmic reticulum, rough endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, ribosomes, mitochondria, centrosome, cytoskeleton, vacuoles, vesicles, and lysosomes.

Explanation:

An animal cell is a typical example of an eukaryotic cell i.e a cell that contains a membrane-bound nucleus. In the cell are certain structures that performs specific functions in the cell called ORGANELLES. The organelles, according to this question, are found suspended or cushioned in the cytoplasm of the animal cell.

Answer:

Pleiotropy

Explanation:

Pleiotropy is a genetic condition in which a single gene conditions the expression of multiple phenotype. There are different types of pleiotropy depending on the underlining mechanism

gene pleiotropy
developmental pleiotropy
selectional pleiotropy
antagonistic pleiotropy

Phenylketonuria is a disease characterized by increased level of amino acid phenylalanine in the blood. It caused by mutation to the gene responsible for breaking down phenylalanine in the blood. Elevated level of phenylalanine causes other issues such as mental problems, urine coloration and reduction in skin pigmentation. This is a clear case of pleiotropy.
