Answer:

Convection is the process of warm fluids rising and cooler fluids sinking. Inside the Earth, convection is powered by heat mostly from the core. The slow circulation of rock in the mantle moves the tectonic plates at the surface.

What solution describes a saturated solution?
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

This is not my answer, I found it on the internet.

No more solutes can be dissolved in a saturated solution at a given temperature and pressure.

Explanation:

A saturated solution is a solution that consists of maximum amount and concentration of the solute that is dissolved in the solvent.

The extra amount of solute cannot be dissolved in a saturated solution.

The saturated solution is composed of solute and solvent and solvent cannot dissolve more solute at some extent.

The carbonated beverage is an ideal example of saturated solution.

One reason native plants are declining is that the invasive plants absorb nitrogen from the soil about twice as fast (α = 2). Ho
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

α = 0 if β= 0

Explanation:

If both species want to persist in the same environment and their niches are also over lapping then both of the co-efficient values should be equal. There are two possibilities on these values for persistence. One is that one should compromise to the change produced by the invasive specie and two is that the new specie should compromise if he wants to stay (<em><u>Assuming that there is no competition</u></em>). In this way their niches won't overlap to a greater extent and therefore better chances of survival for both.

I’m not sure what it means for the cell membrane to be semi-permeable
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

It means that the cell membrane allows certain substances to pass through and not others. As the cell membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer with a hydrophobic core, only small uncharged hydrophobic molecules can pass through the cell membrane e.g. glucocorticoid and other larger charged particles require transporters or channel proteins to pass through the cell membrane, e.g. glucose.

Which pathway is affected by an inherited mutation in the atm gene?
Katena32 [7]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

photoreactivation

reactivation repair pathway

nucleotide excision repair pathway

UV repair pathway

p53 repair pathway

Answer:

p53 repair pathway

Explanation:

ATM gene or ataxia telangiectasia-mutated is a gene which codes for the protein kinase involved in the DNA double-stranded break.

The DNA double-stranded break is repaired easily as the protein kinase is recruited to the site of the break where it allows the DNA repair machinery to repair the DNA.

The gene also controls the cell growth therefore this gene is important to study cancer.  Since the p53 protein is a suppressor protein which if mutated is repaired by the ATM gene and if the gene becomes mutated then the p53 repair pathway is affected.

Thus, p53 repair pathway is the correct answer.
