Answer:

Smaller

Explanation:

Life Cycle of a Star

Stars are formed in clouds of gas and dust, known as nebulae. Nuclear reactions at the centre (or core) of stars provides enough energy to make them shine brightly for many years. The exact lifetime of a star depends very much on its size. Very large, massive stars burn their fuel much faster than smaller stars and may only last a few hundred thousand years. Smaller stars, however, will last for several billion years, because they burn their fuel much more slowly.

The parietal bone has articulations with all of the following bones EXCEPT the __________. a. temporal bone b. frontal bone c. z
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

The parietal bone has not articulated with zygomatic bone.

Explanation:

Parietal bones are paired structure that form the roof and side of the cranium.

The parietal bones are articulated with each other and form suture.

It articulates occipital bone posteriorly,and anteriorly with the frontal bone which form a suture called as coronal suture.

Inferiorly the parietal bone is articulated with sphenoid and temporal bone.

Zygomatic bone is irregular shaped and paired structure that articulates with maxilla.temporal bone, sphenoid bone,frontal bone.

Arguably, the way prokaryotic operons are structured has evolutionary advantages. Based on our discussions in class, briefly des
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Advantage of gene expression in prokaryotes is it occurs faster than in eukaryotes because  transcription and translation occur simultaneously in the cytoplasm, and regulation occurs at the transcriptional level. Whereas disadvantage of gene expression in prokaryotes is that there is no post translational modification and low expression of genes.

Explanation:

Prokaryotic organisms are single-celled organisms that lack a cell nucleus, and their DNA therefore floats freely in the cell cytoplasm. To synthesize a protein, the processes of transcription and translation occur almost simultaneously. When the resulting protein is no longer needed, transcription stops. As a result, the primary method to control what type of protein and how much of each protein is expressed in a prokaryotic cell is the regulation of DNA transcription. All of the subsequent steps occur automatically. When more protein is required, more transcription occurs. Therefore, in prokaryotic cells, the control of gene expression is mostly at the transcriptional level. whereas in eukaryotes, the DNA is contained inside the cell’s nucleus and there it is transcribed into RNA. The newly synthesized RNA is then transported out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm, where ribosomes translate the RNA into protein. The processes of transcription and translation are physically separated by the nuclear membrane; transcription occurs only within the nucleus, and translation occurs only outside the nucleus in the cytoplasm.

If a chromosome in one of your bone cells becomes mutated, you will not pass this mutation onto your children because
Sladkaya [172]
A person will not pass this mutation onto children because somatic cells cannot go through meiosis if a chromosome in one of the bone cells turn out to be mutated. A somatic cell is any cell that creates up an organism excluding reproductive cell. Which is for example the cells that create up the skin are all somatic cells and definite cells in a living organism support in reproduction, dividing or fusing through the reproductive procedure.

_______ is an elastic protein that connects tubulin doublets in cilia and flagellae. the resultant bridges play an important rol
Firdavs [7]
Nexin

This is the elastic protein among tubulin doublets that link them together for ciliary and flagellae structures.
Cilia and flagella are cellular structures that facilitate movement of the cell from one area to another.

This protein also inhibits movement on microtubules from axonemes.
