Answer:

A) It uses less energy to make something from recycled materials than from new materials.

Explanation:

When a recycled material is used to make a new product, it conserves energy because the recycled materials have already been processed once; so making something from it for the second time uses less energy-intensive than the first. For example: Making new aluminium from old products uses 95% less energy than making it from scratch.

Hence, the correct answer is "A)"

Bacteria provide genetic engineers with __ and __
exis [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Bacteria provide genetic engineers with <u>_vector_ </u>and <u>_host_.</u>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Vector are vehicles or carriers which are used to carry the gene of interest. They are usually plasmids which are bacterial circular genome which can replicate independently.

Hence bacterial plasmids are used for the insertion of gene of interest and its transfer to the host cell.

As plasmids is taken from the bacteria, so mostly bacteria is used as the host for the gene of interest.

How is a mantle plume (hot spot) different from volcanoes in the Ring of Fire? How are they similar? Give one specific example o
riadik2000 [5.3K]

The difference between a hot spot volcano and the volcanoes from Ring of Fire can mainly be seen in the way of formation and functioning. The hot spot volcanoes are far away from any tectonic plate boundary and they manage to penetrate the crust over them and come out on the surface to usually create volcanic islands. The activity of the volcanoes from the Ring of Fire depends directly from the activity between the bordering tectonic plates, and as the borders move over time, the volcanoes stop existing, and new ones rise in the direction where the boundary moves.

The similarity can be seen in the type of eruptions, and that usually both types of volcanoes form volcanic islands.

Example for a hot spot volcano is Mauna Loa on Hawaii.

Why are a plants stomata generally open during the day and closed at night brainly?
bagirrra123 [75]
To keep in the stored enzymes so it can keep synthesizing at night, even when there is no sunlight. -- Stomata serve two main functions - they allow carbon dioxide to reach the cells in the leaf where the majority of photosynthesis takes place and they allow water to be transpired out off the leaf. During the day, stomata are generally open to allow photosynthesis to take place as quickly as possible. At night, when the lack of light means photosynthesis can't take place, many plants close their stomata to reduce water loss. There is one group of mainly desert plants, known as CAM plants, that keep their stomata closed during the day when water loss would be greatest, and open them at night, using a biochemical method to effectively store carbon dioxide in the leaf overnight.

How do enzymes make chemical reactions more efficient
bagirrra123 [75]

Enzymes are protein molecules which serve as catalysts for chemical reactions. A catalyst is a substance which will decrease the activation energy for a reaction. ... Enzymes will make reactions occur much more easily, quickly and more efficiently than they ever would without the enzyme.

What is the open area where an enzyme attaches called?
arsen [322]

Answer:

The open area where the substrate is attached to an enzyme is called the active site.

Explanation:

The active site of an enzyme corresponds to the place where the tertiary structure of this molecule leaves a free space to couple the substrate and be able to catalyze a chemical reaction.

Since the enzyme-substrate complex functions as a <u>key lock system</u>, the active site has a three-dimensional configuration that only admits certain molecules as substrate, which determines its specificity.
