The carbon footprint can be decreased by a great amount if the incandescent bulbs are replaced with the compact fluorescent bulbs. The compact fluorescent bulbs uses approximately seventy five percent less energy than the incandescent bulbs as they do not use heating mechanism to light. This leads to less emission of the green house gases and thereby reducing the carbon footprint.
Hence, the correct answer is 'option a - replacing incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs'.
Answer:
All of these choices are correct.
Explanation:
Cell cycle is the process of growth and division of cell. It comprises of interphase and mitosis. In interphase the cell grows, replicates its genomic content and prepares itself for division. In mitosis the division occurs.
Cell cycle is controlled by a group of kinases called as Cyclin dependent Kinases (CDKs). They act by phosphorylating their substrates. They are of various types like Cdk1, Cdk2, Cdk4 etc. They become active when they bind to a regulatory protein called cyclin. They are also of various types like Cyclin A, Cyclin B, Cyclin C etc. Level of cyclin and corresponding CDK increases and decreases according to the stage of cell cycle. For example in S phase of cell cycle concentration of cyclin A and E shoots up. CDK2 is able to bind to these cyclin molecules and hence it becomes active.
Cell cycle has major checkpoints where the condition of cell is analysed before it proceeds to the next stage of cycle. If any abnormality is detected, repair mechanism is activated or the cell is killed. Checkpoints do not allow cell cycle to proceed in damaged cells.
p53 is a tumor suppressor protein which can halt cell cycle when it detects some abnormality in cell. It usually acts in G1/S checkpoint (before the DNA replication starts in cell) and G2/M checkpoint (before the cell division begins). Hence, all of the above statements are true.
The answer is the letter B. Electrical signals.
*Our brain and body communicates with each other by sending messages in the form of electrical signals.
Complete question: The chart shows the movement of a ball after several seconds.
Column A is on the x-axis, and Column B is on the y-axis. Which titles should replace A and B?
a. Column A should be “Time,” and Column B should be “Position.”
b. Column A should be “Position,” and Column B should be “Time.”
c. Column A should be “Velocity,” and Column B should be “Speed.”
d. Column A should be “Speed,” and Column B should be “Velocity.”
Answer:
Column A should be "Time," and Column B should be "Position"
Explanation:
In general, the first column always refers to the x-axis, this is the independent variables. While the second column refers to the y-axis, the dependent variables.
Option A) names Time and Position to the columns. This seems to be correct as time is an independent variable, while the ball position depends on time. The x-axes is named "time", and the Y-axes is named "ball position".
Option B) is not possible because the Position is not the independent variable, and time is not the dependent variable.
Option C) and D) are not possible, as both of them are variables that depend on time.
