Is the temperature profile in the thermosphere more like that of the troposphere or the stratosphere?
podryga [215]

The correct answer is: stratosphere.

This is because their temperatures are rising instead of decreasing.

There are 4 primary layers of the atmosphere on Earth:  

Troposphere (6-20km), the layer that we live in, where the weather occurs. Only nitrogen and oxygen present.

Stratosphere  (20-50 km), where the airplanes fly, contains the ozone layer, which absorbs harmful radiation from the sun.

Mesosphere (50-85 km), the coldest region of Earth’s atmosphere (-100 C), protective layer

Thermosphere (80-690), the hottest (1500 C) and the thickest layer which consists of the ionosphere and the exosphere.

In a chemical analysis of a sample of animal tissue, which element would most likely be found in the smallest quantity?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Iodine

Explanation:

Iodine is needed by animals because the body's metabolic rate is controlled by the action of an iodine hormone, called thyroxine, which is secreted by the thyroid gland in the neck.

If the animal fails to supply enough iodine through food to be able to make a normal amount of this compound, then the thyroid gland enlarges or expands trying to create enough, resulting in a common type of goiter.

The cell will enter the G1 phase. During this phase, proteins and nucleotides needed for DNA replication will be produced. Also,
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer and Explanation:

The interphase is the previous step before mitosis occurs. The interphase is conformed of the G1, S, and G2 stages.

  • During the G1 stage, it occurs a high intense biochemical activity. The cell duplicates its size, and the organelles and other molecules and cytoplasmatic structures duplicate too. Some structures, such as microtubules and actin filaments, are synthesized from zero. The endoplasmic reticulum increases in size and produces a membrane for the Golgi apparatus and vacuoles, lysosomes, and vesicles. During this stage, the pair of centrioles separate, and each centriole duplicates. Mitochondria and chloroplasts also replicate.

The stages S and G2 follow the G1. Once the whole interphase is completed, mitosis occurs.

  • During the S stage occurs the DNI replication process. At this point, it also occurs the synthesis of histones and other associated proteins. This is the only stage where the DNI molecule is replicated.
  • G2 stage is the final one before the cellular division. Here it begins the slow process of DNI condensation. Duplication of centrioles completes. Structures such as spindle fibers are assembled.
