What happened to the sun as the solar system was forming?

Biology
1 answer:
zimovet [89]3 years ago
4 0

Approximately 4.6 billion years ago, the solar system was a cloud of dust and gas known as a solar nebula. Gravity collapsed the material in on itself as it began to spin, forming the sun in the center of the nebula.

With the rise of the sun, the remaining material began to clump together. Small particles drew together, bound by the force of gravity, into larger particles. The solar wind swept away lighter elements, such as hydrogen and helium, from the closer regions, leaving only heavy, rocky materials to create terrestrial worlds. But farther away, the solar winds had less impact on lighter elements, allowing them to coalesce into gas giants. In this way, asteroids, comets, planets and moons were created.

Besides distance why can't you see across an ocean to land on the other side
Bogdan [553]
If I recall correctly, I was taught:
The particles in the air (dust, smoke, etc.) increase in density the farther you look. Causing a "fog" effect as you look across large distances. Including shore to shore of an ocean.

Step 1: drag the lac promoter to the stretch of dna. do not drag the lacz gene to the dna. what happens? why is this?
Marat540 [252]

RNA polymerase binds to the lac promoter and begins transcribing the stretch of DNA to messenger RNA. Therefore, in other words, the stretch of DNA is expressed. The DNA sequence of the lac promoter 'signals' where the RNA polymerase will bind and where transcription will begin. Promoters are found upstream of a gene to be transcribed.
