Ozone, a pollutant or a gas to protect us? We have known that the ozone layer absorbs (slides 12 to 16) most of the sun's ultrav

iolet light, which is potentially damaging to life on earth. At the same time, we have heard that ozone pollution (slides 25-28) is pretty significant in urban areas like l.A. So ozone is good or bad? Elaborate your answers by using what you've learned so far.

Ozone is good when it is in the stratosphere but bad when in the troposphere (where the weather system occurs). When in the stratosphere it help absorbs UV light from sunlight before reaching earth surface. This prevents damage to the genetic material of living organisms.

When in the troposphere, it is considered a pollutant and causes irritation of the lungs when inhaled. It also affects vegetation by reducing crop growth and yield.

Describe, in general terms, the structural components of ribosomes, including a brief explanation of their function. Explain whe
mylen [45]

Answer:

Structurally, the ribosome comprises of two major parts: The small ribosomal units and the large ribosomal units. Each unit contains ribosomal Ribonucleic acid molecules, which is usually one or more than one called rRNA. Each unit also contain ribosomal protein, rproteins. Each of these components are very important for the translation of messenger RNA into proteins encoded by the RNA.

Explanation:

The ribosome and its components are generally referred to as translational apparatus. The small subunit of the ribosome is effective in reading the codes encoded on the mRNA, which . The large subunit is needed to actually join the amino acids needed to form the right protein (or polypeptides). The proteins within the ribosome is used to act as a scaffold that only aid the ribosome ability to form polypeptides.

Since both prokaryotes and eukaryotes are constantly forming proteins using the amino acids they accumulated through nutrition, therefore, both groups possess ribosome. However, the percentage of rRNA and protein in each group differs. For prokaryotes, the rRNA to protein ratio is close to 2, while in eukaryotes like human is close to one.

What types of proteins are synthesized somewhere other than the rough ER?
Vlad [161]
Endoplasmic reticulum is an organelle within a cell. It is divided into smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in synthesis and transportation of of lipids while rough endoplasmic reticulum contains ribosomes which are responsible for synthesis of proteins, therefore rough ER is involved in transportation of proteins. A few proteins are synthesized in the mitochondria and the plastids. Therefore, proteins synthesized elsewhere other than the rough ER are the Mitochondrial proteins

What is the relationship between propagation and density change?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer: Density affect propagation.

Density is mass per unit volume of a substance.

A substance that is more sense has more mass per unit volume, it will make sound to transmit at slower rate . Less dense substance will allow sound to transmit at higher rates. Density affect the speed a wave will be transmitted through it. The denser the material, the slower wave will be transmitted.

Explanation:

Density is Mass per unit volume. Density affect the propagation of wave. The denser the substance, the slower wave will be transmitted through it. The less dense the material, the higher wave will be transmitted through it. Density affect the speed of wave.
