Korvikt [17]2 years ago

Fossil fuels release carbon dioxide gas when they burn which adds to the greenhouse effect and increases global warming. Of the three fossil fuels, for a given amount of energy released, coal produces the most carbon dioxide and natural gas produces the least.

Round the number 14.587020 to 4 significant digits. a. 14.59 b. 14.58 c. 14.587 d. 15.00 Please select the best answer from the
gregori [183]

Answer:

A. 14.59

Explanation:

Firstly, rounding a number means making a number simpler but keeping its value close. So rounding 14.587020 means making it look less complex but making sure the rounded value is within range of the original value.

Next, we have to know that to round a number;

* Digits below 5 (<5) rounds down the next digit to their left i.e. we leave the digits the same and turn the rounding digit to 0.

* Digits above 5 (>5) rounds up the next digit to the left i.e. we add 1 to the next digit

Next, to round to 4 significant digits means we want to see only the first four non-zero digits in our value. Note that, all non-zero digits i.e. 1-9 are significant

Hence, 14.587020 will be:

= 14.587020

= 14.58700

= 14.59000

We have four (4) digits which are non-zero already, hence we stop here and remove all zeros to the right

Hence, 14.587020 to 4 significant digits is 14.59 i.e. 14.587020 ~ 14.59

A gene with the sequence ATTCATTCA underwent duplication after a few generations. Which sequence represents this gene after the
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The sequence would be <u>ATTCATTCA</u>.

Explanation:

Usually, when a sequence is duplicated, one of them becomes a non-coding. It's just like a computer. There can only be one specific file, or else a duplicated one will just replace the existing one, if you allow the file to do so. Same with DNA. This is why most of our DNA have no function and why we lost genetic abilities such as being able to produce our own Vitamin C.

So instead of the new gene being ATTCATTCAATTCATTCA, it's simply ATTCATTCA. You simply cannot have duplicates, just like computer files. I wish I could share an amazing video by PBS Eons giving a great explanation about genes and stuff, but sadly Brainly doesn't like such stuff, so just <em>search up in ㄚㄖㄩㄒㄩ乃乇 (ebuTouY) "genes we lost along the way" and it should be the first video that pops out.</em> Trust me, it's a great video, it's much better than my explanation.
