Climate change is making the ice melt faster which causes the overall earths overall temperature to rise. After ice melts it literally has nowhere else to go,so ocean levels rise which ultimately could lead to the drowning of all cities around the world. Basically killing off everyone

Ice albedo. Ice is white and very reflective, in contrast to the ocean surface, which is dark and absorbs heat faster. As the atmosphere warms and sea ice melts, the darker ocean absorbs more heat, causes more ice to melt, and makes the Earth warmer overall. The ice-albedo feedback is a very strong positive feedback.

Consider the equation S + O2 ? SO2. What is the product? Question 3 options: S SO 2 S + SO 2 O 2
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer : The product in the given balanced reaction is, sulfur dioxide (SO_2).

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

S+O_2\rightarrow SO_2

This reaction occurs when sulfur react with oxygen gas to give sulfur dioxide gas as a product.

In the given balanced chemical reaction, sulfur (S) and oxygen gas (O_2) are the reactants and sulfur dioxide (SO_2) is the product.

Hence, the product in the given balanced reaction is, sulfur dioxide (SO_2).

A transcriptional repressor that controls the transcription of gene A is not normally active unless bound by an effector molecul
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Increase in transcription

Explanation:

Transcription is the process of forming RNA from DNA. It can be controlled by many factors like a repressor. Repressor can bind to the operator region of the promoter and hinder the movement of RNA Polymerase enzyme, halting the process.

Here, it is given that the repressor needs to first bind to an effector molecule X. Once it binds to X, it is activated and then it can bind to operator of gene A to inhibit its transcription. If the X binding domain on repressor is mutated it wont be able to bind to X. Thus it wont get activated and wont be able to attach to operator region to inhibit transcription. Hence, transcription process will keep going on uncontrolled.
