The above statement is true.
The operation of nuclear power plants in the United States is closely monitored and regulated. The NRC or Nuclear regulatory commission is the body that is tasked to monitor and regulate the construction and operation of nuclear power plants. Nuclear power plants use the heat generated from nuclear fission in a contained environment to convert water to steam, which powers generate to produce electricity.
Mitochondria are found in all body cells.
Answer:
The new amino acid may be the same as the original amino acid or it may be different.
Answer:
A= 20%
G= 30%
T= 20%
C= 30%
Explanation:
Recall that the sum of all nitrogenous bases in the DNA nucleotide is equal to 100%. And specific base pairings of Adenine to Thymine (A=T), and Cytosine to Guanine (C=G) must be equal.
So, the percentage of Adenine equal thymine, and that of cytosine equals guanine.
Now, A + T + C + G = 100%
So, if Adenine makes up 20% of the DNA nucleotides, Thymine is also 20%.
Then, 20% + 20% + C + G = 100%
40% + C + G = 100%
C + G = 100% - 40% = 60%
So, divide 60% by 2 to obtain the individual percentage of cytosine and guanine. Each will take 30%
Finally, A= 20%; G= 30%; T= 20%; C= 30%
Answer:
Increased global temperatures, leading to a 20% reduction in rainfall
Explanation:
According to this question, forest fires are becoming rampant in tropical rainforests. Although this occurrence is natural, tropical rainforests do not typically undergo this natural process due to the average yearly amount of rainfall. This means that the high amount of rainfall in tropical rainforests help prevent or reduce the high cases of forest fire incidence.
However, the recent increased occurrence of tropical rainforest fires is most likely attributed to an INCREASE IN GLOBAL TEMPERATURES, LEADING TO A 20% REDUCTION IN RAINFALL. This is because an increase in the global atmospheric temperature causes the reduction of the amount of rainfall, which naturally helps curb the occurrence of forest fires.
