Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Transcription and translation are the two proocesess involved in gene expression. These two processes are important because the end result is a PROTEIN responsible for the phenotypic characteristics of that organism. Transcription involves synthesis of mRNA from DNA while translation involves synthesis of protein from mRNA.

In this question, an antibiotics called Puromycin forces the ribosome to detach from the mRNA chain before reaching the stop codon. This means that the antibiotics "Puromycin" abruptly truncates the translation process. Hence, proteins will not be produced. This means that the organism (bacteria) will not be functionally active because of lack of necessary PROTEINS.

Answer:

The allele frequency changed

The light moths blended in with the light-colored trees. However, the Industrial Revolution changed the tree colors. After the pollution from the Industrial Revolution started affecting trees, most of the collected peppered moths were of the dark form.

80 POINTS HELP PLS BRAINLIEST
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

1. red shift: he displacement of spectral lines toward longer wavelengths (the red end of the spectrum) in radiation from distant galaxies and celestial objects. This is interpreted as a Doppler shift that is proportional to the velocity of recession and thus to distance.

2. blue shift: the displacement of the spectrum to shorter wavelengths in the light coming from distant celestial objects moving toward the observer.

3. The curve changes noticeably about 7.5 billion years ago, when objects in the universe began flying apart as a faster rate. Astronomers theorize that the faster expansion rate is due to a mysterious, dark force that is pulling galaxies apart. One explanation for dark energy is that it is a property of space.

4. A nebula is a giant cloud of dust and gas in space. Some nebulae (more than one nebula) come from the gas and dust thrown out by the explosion of a dying star, such as a supernova. Other nebulae are regions where new stars are beginning to form. For this reason, some nebulae are called "star nurseries."

5. Elliptical, Spiral, and Irregular. Two of these three types are further divided and classified into a system that is now known the tuning fork diagram.

A barred spiral galaxy is a spiral galaxy with a central bar-shaped structure composed of stars. Bars are found in between one third and two thirds of all spiral galaxies. Bars generally affect both the motions of stars and interstellar gas within spiral galaxies and can affect spiral arms as well.

6. a unit of astronomical distance equivalent to the distance that light travels in one year, which is 9.4607 × 1012 km (nearly 6 trillion miles).

4.367 light years is how far they are from eachother.

7. Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with a force which is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.[note 1] This is a general physical law derived from empirical observations by what Isaac Newton called inductive reasoning.[1] It is a part of classical mechanics and was formulated in Newton's work Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica ("the Principia"), first published on 5 July 1687. When Newton presented Book 1 of the unpublished text in April 1686 to the Royal Society, Robert Hooke made a claim that Newton had obtained the inverse square law from him. In today's language, the law states that every point mass attracts every other point mass by a force acting along the line intersecting the two points. The force is proportional to the product of the two masses, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.[2]

8. Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets, just as Earth's gravity pulls down anything that is not held up by some other force and keeps you and me on the ground.

9. The asteroid belt is the circumstellar disc in the Solar System located roughly between the orbits of the planets Mars and Jupiter. It is occupied by numerous irregularly shaped bodies called asteroids or minor planets.

10. Earth spins around its axis, just as a top spins around its spindle. This spinning movement is called Earth's rotation. At the same time that the Earth spins on its axis, it also orbits, or revolves around the Sun. This movement is called revolution.

A day is approximately the period of time during which the Earth completes one rotation around its axis.

An Earth year is 365 days. It's the time that it takes the Earth to orbit the Sun. Each planet takes a different amount of time to orbit the Sun, so the length of each planet's year is different to ours. See if you can match up the planet to the length of year below.

11. One says that galaxies were born when vast clouds of gas and dust collapsed under their own gravitational pull, allowing stars to form. The other, which has gained strength in recent years, says the young universe contained many small "lumps" of matter, which clumped together to form galaxies.

12. The outer planets are further away, larger and made up mostly of gas. The inner planets (in order of distance from the sun, closest to furthest) are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. After an asteroid belt comes the outer planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

13. The seasons are caused by the tilt of the Earth's rotational axis away or toward the sun as it travels through its year-long path around the sun. The Earth has a tilt of 23.5 degrees relative to the "ecliptic plane" (the imaginary surface formed by it's almost-cicular path around the sun).

Place the following events of muscle excitation in the correct order.
svetlana [45]

An motion potential in the presynaptic cell activates calcium channels. Ca+ triggers the discharge of Acetylcholine through exocytosis. Ach binds its receptors in the postsynaptic membrane, opening Na+ channels. The Order is 4, 3, 5, 1, 2.

The principal frightened system generates an motion potential that travels to the goal activating the calcium channels ⇒ event (4)

Calcium triggers vesicles fusion to the presynaptic membrane. By exocytosis, vesicles release the neurotransmitter -Acetylcholine- into the synaptic space ⇒ event (3)

Once there, Ach binds to its receptors on the postsynaptic membrane of the skeletal muscle fiber, causing ion channels to open ⇒ event (5)

Positively charged sodium ions move the membrane to get into the muscle fiber (sarcoplasm) and potassium leaves the cell ⇒ event (1)

The distinction in charges, resulting from these ions' transport, positively charges the fiber membrane. The postsynaptic cell depolarizes ⇒ Event (2)

The motion potential enters the t-tubules depolarizing the internal part of the muscle fiber. Contraction initiates while the motion potential depolarizes the internal part of the muscle fiber. Calcium channels spark off in the T tubules membrane, releasing calcium into the sarcolemma.

At this point, the muscle is at rest, and the tropomyosin is inhibiting the appeal strengths between myosin and actin filaments. Tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the skinny filament.

When calcium enters the sarcolemma, it binds to troponin C, and troponin T alters the tropomyosin role through shifting it and unblocking the binding sites.

Myosin heads be a part of the uncovered actin-binding points forming move-bridges, and whilst doing so, ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate, that's released.

Myofilaments slide impulsed through chemical energy accumulated in myosin heads, generating a strength stroke. The strength stroke initiates while the myosin move-bridge binds to actin. As they slide, ADP molecules are released. A new ATP hyperlinks to myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament.

Then ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is gathered in the myosin heads, which begins offevolved a new binding cycle to actin.

Finally, Z-bands are pulled towards every other, and the sarcomere and the I-band get shorter, generating muscle fiber contraction.

According to those steps, the appropriate order of activities is 4, 3, 5, 1, 2.
