1 answer:
lapo4ka [179]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Minerals can form in all geological environments, which allows them to have a wide range of chemical and physical conditions. Two forms of this are temperature and pressure. There are 4 main categories of mineral formations.   Igneous is where the minerals crystalize from a melt. Sedimentary is where the raw materials of the mineral are particles from other rocks that have suffered from erosion and weathering. Metamorphic is where new minerals are created from earlier ones owing to the effects of change. Most of the time it's from increasing temperature and/or pressure. Hydrothermal is where the minerals are chemically precipitated from hot solutions in the earth.

Answer: Option A) All types of RNA in the cell are synthesized by transcription, which uses a portion of DNA as a template for copying.

All types of RNA:

- viral RNA,

- ribosomal RNA,

- transfer RNA,

- messenger RNA and

- double-stranded RNA, have a sequence that is the same as 'antisense' strand of the DNA.

Thus, it is true that all types of RNA in the cell are synthesized by transcription, which uses a portion of DNA as a template for copying.

Ocean circulation is the large-scale movement of water in the ocean. It involves the transport of heat through convection,
kumpel [21]

Answer:

Convection moves heat toward the west.

Explanation:

El Niño is defined as a climate pattern which is characterized by the unusual increase in temperature of surface waters in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean.

Convection deals with the movement of heat particles in a fluid (liquid or gas) between areas of different temperature.

Studies shows that convection moves heat in the ocean during non-El Niño (normal) years through a process called upwelling which involves movement of heat towards the west.
