Biology

Brilliant_brown [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

There are many things that can be read from ripple marks in sedimentary rocks. To start, a geologist looks at: the types (sizes, composition, shapes) of grains in the rock, the height of the “waves”, the distance between peaks (highs) and troughs (lows), whether the rock seems to be lying in its original position, and the internal shapes of the ripples (by looking at the edges of broken pieces). They also seek to determine the age of the rock and information about other rocks lying below and above the specific rock.

Data collected by the drilling ship Glomar Challenger confirmed that _____.
Volgvan
Data collected by the drilling ship Glomar Challenger confirmed that C. NONE OF THE OCEAN FLOOR IS MORE THAN 180 MILLION YEARS OLD.

Glomar Challenger began drilling on both sides of the mid-ocean ridges to gather data. The data confirmed what the sea-floor spreading hypothesis predicted. The ocean floor is youngest along the central valley of the mid-ocean ridge while the ocean floor in subduction zones or near the edges of the continents is oldest. The data has confirmed that none of the ocean floor is more than 180 million years old because the older oceanic rock will undergo subduction and go back to the earht's mantle.

6 steps of translation in order biology
densk [106]

Answer:

step 1: mRNA attaches to the ribosome

step 2: tRNA's attach to free amino acids in the cytoplasmic "pool" of amino acids

step 3: tRNA carries its specific amino acid to the ribosome

step 4: tRNA "delivers" its amino acid based on complementary pairing of a triplet code (anticodon) with the triplet code (codon) of the mRNA

step 5: Enzyme "hooks" the amino acid to the last one in the chain forming a peptide bond

step 6: Protein chain continues to grow as each tRNA brings in its amino acid and adds it to the chain
