Answer:
The number of protons in it.
Explanation:
There are two properties that can be used to identify an element:
- the atomic number
- the number of protons in an atom.
The number of neutrons and number of electrons are frequently equal to the number of protons, but can vary depending on the atom in question
Answer:
To regenerate damaged tissue
Explanation:
Stem cells can be pluripotent, totipotent or multipotent depending on where they are sourced. This means that they are capable of differentiating into a wide variety of cells. Stem cells can, therefore, be harvested and induced to differentiate into cells or tissues that are intended to be repaired.
Answer:
D - the production of a specific mRNA will increase as a result of the binding of the hormone receptor complex to the DNA
Explanation:
We are told that the hormone binds a receptor and then enters the cell, binding to the DNA and promoting transcription of a specific gene.
Transcription is the process whereby mRNA molecules are synthesised from a DNA sequence, which are then translated into specific process. D is correct, as the gene the hormone binds to will increase in transcription, producing a specific mRNA.
A, B and C are much more general processes, not linked to the actions of a hormone on a specific gene.
Answer:
Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into the natural environment that cause adverse change. Pollution can take the form of chemical substances or energy, such as noise, heat, or light. (I'm sorry this is about Pollution, it should be about Pollination, I misread it sorry,)
Pollination:
Pollination is the act of transferring pollen grains from the male anther of a flower to the female stigma. The goal of every living organism, including plants, is to create offspring for the next generation. One of the ways that plants can produce offspring is by making seeds.
