A polymer is made up of monomers. A monomer is a unit that occurs in repetitive chains. Lipids do not occur in repetitive chains, so they are not classified as monomers. Since they're not monomers, they can't make up polymers, either.
Explanation:
A single nucleotide-pair substitution missense mutation causes a change of a single amino acid into another. Aa a result, the produced protein will have an almost normal sequence except for one amino acid.
On the other hand, a frameshift mutation changes the Open Reading Frame (ORF) of the ribosome. The ribosome moves along the mRNA every three nucleotides (codons) and translates them into amino acids that will form the nascent protein. If there is a frameshift mutation (an insertion or deletion of a number of nucleotides not multiple of three) the ribosome will "read" the mRNA differently and will identify different codons than the wild-type sequence, so a large number of amino acids will be different in the mutated protein.
Switch A and D, but other than that your answers are correct.
An astronomical body is an object in space.
A comet is a celestial object consisting of a nucleus of ice and a stream of gas and dust.
A moon is an astronomical body that orbits around a planet.
A galaxy is a system of start held by gravitational attraction.
It is A. Those are all decomposers, the other answers like C are all animals. Decomposers are are biotic organisms that break down basically dead plants or animals.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Alternative energy is best defined as the use of energy sources other than traditional fossil fuels, which are considered environmentally harmful and are in short supply. Fossil fuels consist of natural gas, coal, and oil. Currently, fossil fuels are the most used energy source to heat our homes and power our cars.
