arlik [135]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Chromosomes are like a ball of yarn in the sense that there are multiple components that make up the structure. Genes can be in similitude of the smallest threads in the yarn and when a multitude of genes are put together they make a DNA strand or a long, thick thread of yarn. Lastly, when DNA is twisted together, it becomes bundled together, making a chromosome or a "ball of yarn".

What is the relationship of NADP and NADPH?
Lynna [10]
NADPH is the reduced form of NADP+. This simply means that NADPH has an extra hydrogen ion. NADPH is formed when upon the reduction of NADP+ . NADP stands for nicotine amide dinucleotide phosphate. It is a coenzyme that is involved in a wide range of anabolic reactions. During the synthesis of carbohydrates in plants, NADPH acts as a reducing agent, likewise in the synthesis of nucleic acids and lipids. As a reduced compound, NADPH becomes a molecule with high energy thus being especially useful in driving the Calvin cycle.

In general, the land changes temperature much more rapidly than the ocean. How does this fact explain the existence of land bree
Greeley [361]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Land and sea breeze are produced because the land changes temperature rapidly than the ocean. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>The rates of heating up of land and sea are different. Land gets heated up faster than water. Temperature is crucial in determining the density of air. </em>

When land gets heated up the air near the land turns hot and this temperature is greater than the temperature of the air near the water surface. <em>Hotter air has less density than the air which is relatively less warm. Density difference creates pressure difference. </em>

Denser air has higher pressure than less dense air making air move from area of high pressure to area of low pressure. During the day<em> the land is heated up more and thus air move from sea to land and it is called sea breeze. </em>Just like it absorbs heat land releases heat at a faster rate.  

<em>Thus at night land the sea will be warmer than the sea and thus air will move from the land to the sea and it is called land breeze. </em>
