Answer:

Star P is smaller than star Q

Explanation:

Absolute brightness is defined as brightness of a celestial object or star from a  Standard distance usually taken as 10 parsecs from Earth. If one star is brighther than the other then there can be two variable playing major role given that they are at same distance –  

a) composition of star and

b) Its size.  

The larger the star, the more energy it will emit per second and hence more will be its absolute brightness.  

Thus, star P is smaller than star Q

. For the following give the mRNA, tRNA and amino acid (a.a.) sequence that will be created:
alexdok [17]
<span>mRNA: UACAUGGCCUUACGCUAA tRNA: AUG UAC CGG AAU GCG AUU a.a: Tyrosine, Methionine, Alanine, Leucine, and Arginine DNA has 4 different bases, they are Adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and Thymine (T). RNA also has 4 bases with three of them being identical to the DNA bases and Thymine being replaced with Uracil (U). These bases are generally represented by the 1st letter of their names. Each of the bases will join with a complementary base, so A always pairs with T or U, and C will pair with G. So to create the mRNA, simply replace every A with a U, every C with a G, every G with a C, and finally, every T with a A. So mRNA: UACAUGGCCUUACGCUAA Now for tRNA, there's a slight twist. It only comes in 3 base codons, You won't find a sequence of tRNA other than in 3 base codons. And each of those codons will be uniquely paired with an amino acid. In the ribosomes, the mRNA will be sequentially scanned 3 bases at a time allowing for a matching tRNA sequence to bind to the exposed 3 bases, this will cause the next amino acid to be bound into the protein being constructed. So split the mRNA into 3 base sequences and calculate the complement to get the tRNA. A simple shortcut is to look at the original DNA sequence and simply replace a T bases with U. So tRNA: AUG UAC CGG AAU GCG AUU Notice the spaces every 3rd base. THIS IS REQUIRED. These is no continuous length of tRNA. You'll only find it in 3 base lengths and each of them will be bound with an amino acid. For the amino acid that's coded to the RNA, you'll need to use a lookup table in your text book, or one you can find online. Then it's a simple matter of matching each 3 base sequence to the amino acid. For the sequence given we have: AUG - Tyrosine UAC - Methionine CGG - Alanine AAU - Leucine GCG - Arginine AUU - STOP Notice the AUU doesn't decode to a specific amino acid. It instead indicates to the ribosome to stop the production of the protein. So the amino acid sequence for the originally given DNA sequence is: Tyrosine, Methionine, Alanine, Leucine, and Arginine.</span>

The uppermost horizon, horizon O, in this profile is composed mostly of _________, while the lower horizon, horizon C, is compos
pickupchik [31]

<u>Answer;</u>

C) organic matter; rocks.

The uppermost horizon, horizon O, in this profile is composed mostly of <u>organic matter</u>, while the lower horizon, horizon C, is composed mostly of <u>rocks.</u>

<u>Explanation;</u>

-Soil contains the following major horizons, that is A B and C. Some soils may have horizon O, which may be thin or thick or even lack in some soils. This O horizon is found at the surface of many soils and normally contains organic materials at various decomposition stages. these are materials such as plants, leaves and bugs.

-C horizon is the layer that is below the B horizon. It contains larger weathered fragments or broken up-bedrock.

The skeletal system is not static in structure. Bones are constantly being broken down and rebuilt.Complete the statement about
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Osteoblast, osteocytes and osteoclasts  are responsible for breaking down bone during remodeling.

Explanation:

The process which is responsible during bone formation in equally in initial and later stages of remodelling, they are the bigger cells which are responsible for the synthesis and mineralisation  of bone. Osteocytes are the rich in cells in the bone tissue, which is helpful in detection of the mechanical loading, also manages the in bone formation and bone resorption. Osteoclast are cells that disintegrate the bone to start normal bone remodelling and also contemplate bone loss in pathologic condition by growing its resorptive capacity.
