Answer:

Release energy for plant growth

Explanation:

Photosynthesis equation:

6CO2+6H2O -> C6H12O6+O2

The plant is using that CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water) to build its structure, grow, develop itself!

Answer:

Photosynthesis is the process plants use to create energy.

Explanation: Plants need nutrients just like we do, their process involves absorbing CO2 (carbon dioxide), cleansing it, and releasing oxygen. They also need sunlight and water to help them grow. They use chloroplasts which look like a stack of green pancakes in this process.

An experiment is a process where the a scientist tests and draws their evidence and data from. Hence, this process is where the hypothesis be supported or negated.

Variables are traits, factors, or characteristics that either manipulated or measured being the subject to become the data.
The independent variable is B.

How does a mutation in the DNA affect the way proteins are made?

Vikentia [17]

Explanation:

B.) A mutation in the DNA results in a change in the mRNA and, ultimately, to a different protein structure.

Further Explanation:

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. To produce daughter cells during cell division, the chromosomes (total number of chromosomes (2n)) are copied before the cell splits into two daughter cells.

During the process of cell division, spontaneous changes within the genome can arise. These mutations are errors occur when copies of the DNA within the cell are made; mutations may range from small changes called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large scale deletions, and additions which span multiple genes. There are two types:

somatic: these only occur within certain cells, and arise from environmental factors such as UV light
hereditary: occur within germ cells of the parent and later the fertilized egg which forms a zygote; these are present within all cells of the new organism.

Nucleic acids are comprised of smaller units called nucleotides and function as storage for the body’s genetic information. These monomers include ribonucleic acid (RNA) or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). They exist solely to encode and carry out protein synthesis.

The message on DNA, called genes is copied by RNA polymerase, to form mRNA complementary sequence to that of the DNA strand in transcription. These are then translated into proteins in ribosomes. Mutations in DNA sequences affect the corresponding mRNA and thus the protein encoded.

They are maintained within cells, as they form new traits called alleles, which may confer adaptations that increase the fitness of a species, along with ensuring survival by conferring a protective advantage.

e.g. sickle cell anemia, a disease caused by a mutation, confers protection against the disease malaria.

The protein separates from the ribosome in which step of translation?

zavuch27 [327]

Translation involves taking the message that's in the messenger RNA and in a sense decoding the message from the language of nucleic acids to the language of proteins or polypeptides. it includes 3 distinct steps which are initialization, elongation and termination.

Based on what you were told about the reproduction of the snails, write a question that could be researched

ValentinkaMS [17]

Question: If they aren't hermaphrodites, can they still be male and female at the same time?

Facts: Different snails reproduce differently, but most snails are "hermaphrodites." Being a hermaphrodite means that any given snail can be both male and female at the same time. This can make it a lot easier for snails to reproduce and quickly make a whole lot of snails! Some hermaphrodite snails do not need another snail to reproduce, but can make more snails all by themselves (this is called asexual reproduction). Other snails are hermaphrodites but still need another snail to reproduce (this is called sexual reproduction). There are also some snails that aren't hermaphrodites, but are either male or female, and must find a snail of the opposite sex to breed with.
