Answer:

B.Scientists are unable to map out the location of tec-tonic plate boundaries.

Explanation:

By plotting the locations of earthquakes, scientists have not only been able to locate plate boundaries but have also been able to determine plate characteristics and predict the movement of the plates. In this investigation, you will plot the locations of earthquakes and determine the boundaries of the earth's plates

The nucleoside analogue acyclovir, which is used to treat herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections, lacks a 3′ hydroxyl group (–OH)
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

There won't be any functional viral DNA synthesis

Explanation:

First of all, you must consider that the HSV has a double-stranded, linear DNA genome. Furthermore, the DNA skeleton is made of the 5'-3' phosphodiester bond. In other words, the 5-phosphat of a nucleotide will bond the 3' OH of the Deoxyribose (see image).

Therefore, if you add a molecule which lacks the 3' OH, such as acyclovir, and has a similar chemical structure to a regular nucleotide, the DNA polimerase will be able to add acyclovir to the main backbone of the viral genome. All in all, you'd be ''cheating'' the DNA pol.

Hence, wherever acyclovir was integrated, there won't be any chance to form a 5'-3' phosphodiester bond. The protomolecule will not be stable and will soon be degradated.

What would earth’s surface look like if earth did not have an atmosphere?
Dvinal [7]
Earth would basically look like the Moon; minus the craters, of course. This is because with no atmosphere to hold all of the Oxygen near the surface, all life would die off fairly quickly.

Which factor does not greatly influence the rate of
jonny [76]

Answer:

a. transcription

Explanation:

<em>Sugar transport in phloem is referred to as pressure flow and it involves the movement of sugar through the phloem vascular tissue from the regions where sugar is synthesized (by photosynthesis) to other parts of the plant's body that require sugar.</em>

The parts of plants where sugar is synthesized (usually the leaf) is known as sugar source while the parts where they are transported is referred to as the source. Sources are usually areas of of high osmotic concentration and high water pressure while sinks are usually areas of low osmotic concentration and low water pressure.

<em>Hence, sugar transport in the phloem can be said to be influenced by the rate of sugar production at the source (rate of photosynthesis), turgor pressure as well as sugar concentration in sinks and sources.</em>

The only option that has no known effect on sugar transport in the phloem is transcription.

The correct option is a.
