Lthough much of the explanation for why certain substances mix and form
solutions and why others do not is beyond the scope of this class, we
can get a glimpse at why solutions form by taking a look at the
process by which ethanol, C2H5OH, dissolves in
water. Ethanol is actually miscible in water, which means that the two
liquids can be mixed in any proportion without any limit to their
solubility. Much of what we now know about the tendency of particles
to become more dispersed can be used to understand this kind of change
as well.
Picture a layer of ethanol being carefully added to the top of some water (Figure below).
Because the particles of a liquid are moving constantly, some of the
ethanol particles at the boundary between the two liquids will
immediately move into the water, and some of the water molecules will
move into the ethanol. In this process, water-water and
ethanol-ethanol attractions are broken and ethanol-water attractions
are formed. Because both the ethanol and the water are molecular
substances with O−H bonds, the attractions broken between water
molecules and the attractions broken between ethanol molecules are
hydrogen bonds. The attractions that form between the ethanol and
water molecules are also hydrogen bonds (Figure below). There you go
Answer:
The correct answer is "Orthologs are homologs found in the same species".
Explanation:
Orthologs, or orthologous genes, are defined as genes found in different species that evolved from a common ancestry. Therefore, It is false to affirm that orthologs are homologs found in the same species. Orthologous genes have the same function and often share common nucleotide sequences, however, they must be found in different species to be considered orthologs.
Answer:
transcription factors bind to the promoter, and RNA polymerase is then recruited to begin transcribing the gene
Explanation:
The transcription process in eukaryotes happens in 3 stages:
- Initiation
- Elongation
- Termination
The initiation of transcription starts when a set of proteins called the transcription binds to the promoter region of a gene on the coding strand of DNA. Thereafter, the RNA polymerase enzyme binds to the promoter region thereby opening up the double helix structure of the DNA in anticipation of transcription.
During elongation, RNA nucleotides are added to the growing RNA strand in 5' to 3' direction with the DNA unwinding and winding back as the polymerase moves along the coding strand in 3' to 5' direction.
Transcription terminates when the RNA polymerase gets to the end of the gene being transcribed signalled by a sequence of DNA known as the terminator.
<em>Hence, in the illustration, the correct answer would be that the transcription factors bind to the promoter, and RNA polymerase is then recruited to begin transcribing the gene.</em>
Answer:
<em>C) diploid daughter cells</em>
Explanation:
Meiosis can be described as a process of cell division in which the chromosome number is reduced to half of that of the parents. Four daughter cells are produced as a result of meiosis and these cells are haploid. Hence, option C, diploid daughter cells will not apply to meiosis.
Mitosis can be described as a process of cell division in which two new daughter cells are produced which are identical to the parent cells. The daughter cells are diploid. Hence, this description would be applied to mitosis.
Answer:
250 kg*m/s
Explanation:
You just multiply 25 by 10 to get momentum. Kg*m/s looks like newtons but in newtons, the seconds are squared but with p, it is not.
