How did creating a greenbelt affect sprawl? Why do you think this happened?

1 answer:

8 0

The OECD found that the responsiveness of housing supply to demand in the UK was the weakest among developed countries, due in large part to green belt policies. The green belt concept was first introduced for London in 1938 before the 1947 Town and Country Planning Act enabled local authorities to designate the status themselves. The policy was introduced to contain urban sprawl following huge post-war housing developments, and expanded greatly between 1951 and 1964. Since 1979, the green belt has doubled to cover 13 per cent of land in England (while only 2.3 per cent is covered by buildings).

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

RNAi is a cellular mechanism for post-transcriptional gene silencing. After transcription of a gene into mRNA, small interfering RNA (siRNA) and microRNA (miRNA) can target the mRNA to form dsRNA. This mRNA then becomes a target of ribonucleases such as the Dicer that break it apart. These mRNA, therefore, do not reach the cytoplasm for translation by ribosomes. This mechanism is hence harnessed and manipulated by scientists to study genes by silencing them.

sammy [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Primers are the small segments of DNA or RNA. Primers do not cleave DNA at specific regions. It is a function of restriction endonucleases. Primers are required during the process of DNA replication as DNA polymerase cannot start the formation of a new DNA strand without preexisting free 3' OH ends. A primer is formed by a primase enzyme. Primers provide the free 3' OH ends to DNA polymerase which in turn extends them to make the new DNA strands. In PCR, primers serve as the same function for the enzyme of DNA strand formation (Taq polymerase).
