What is the difference between the thermosphere and stratosphere ​

Biology
2 answers:
larisa86 [58]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

The stratosphere starts just above the troposphere and extends to 50 kilometers (31 miles) high. The ozone layer, which absorbs and scatters the solar ultraviolet radiation, is in this layer. The thermosphere starts just above the mesosphere and extends to 600 kilometers (372 miles) high

True [87]

Answer:

Gene: The hereditary material made up of alleles.

Alleles: The alternative forms of a gene.

Dominant: An allele or trait that masks the effect of recessive allele or trait.

Recessive: An allele or trait that gets suppressed by the dominant allele or trait.

genotype: The genome of a particular organism of the genes which make up an organism.

phenotype: The physical traits or characteristics of an organism.

test- cross: A cross in which the dominant and the recessive trait offsprings are crossed to depict whether the dominant organism is homozygous or heterozygous.

law of independent assortment: Alleles of different genes get assorted independently into gametes.

law of segregation: allele pairs segregate during gamete formation and unite at the time of fertilization.

product rule: Independent evens can be calculated by multiplying the independent probabilities.

Addition rule: The probability which shows that one event would occur in a mutually exclusive event.

co-dominant: When the dominant and the recessive trait occur and the organism shows both the characteristics of the dominant and the recessive trait.

incomplete dominance: when the dominant trait is not fully dominant over the recessive trait. As a result, individuals are produced which show neither the dominant or the recessive trait. A new trait is developed in them.

Identify the buffer solution that can be used for eluting a transcription factor bound to a DNA affinity column. a. high sugar c
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Option D is correct

Explanation:

Gradient elution of transcription factor is facilitated by disrupting DNA- transcription factor interaction by increasing concentration of salt in other to increase the ionic strength.

Arrange these muscle contraction events in the correct order.
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

 1. nerve stimulus

4. calcium channels open

10. acetylcholine vesicles move to endplate

7. exocytosis occurs releasing acetylcholine into synaptic cleft

3. acetylcholine binds to receptor

6. impulse rides along sarcolemma

9. impulse enters the cells via the t-tubule

5. sarcoplasmic reticulum releases calcium

8. calcium binds to troponin moving tropomyosin out of the way

2. myosin attaches to actin causing a twitch

Explanation:  

The central nervous system generates an action potential (<u>1</u>) that travels to the muscle fiber activating the calcium channels (<u>4</u>). Calcium triggers vesicles fusion to the presynaptic membrane (<u>10)</u> releasing acetylcholine (Ach) into the synaptic space (<u>7</u>). Once there, Ach binds to its receptors (<u>3</u>) on the postsynaptic membrane of the skeletal muscle fiber, causing ion channels to open. Positively charged sodium ions cross the membrane to get into the muscle fiber (sarcoplasm) and potassium leaves the cell. The difference in charges caused by these ions transport charges positively the muscle fiber membrane (<u>6</u>). It depolarizes. The action potential enters the t-tubules (<u>9</u>) depolarizing the inner portion of the muscle fiber.  

Contraction initiates when the action potential depolarizes the inner portion of the muscle fiber. Calcium channels activate in the T tubules membrane, releasing calcium into the sarcolemma (<u>5</u>). At this point, the muscle is at rest, and the tropomyosin is inhibiting the attraction strengths between myosin and actin filaments. <em>Tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the thin filament</em>. When calcium binds to troponin C, troponin T alters the tropomyosin position by moving it and unblocking the binding sites (<u>8)</u>. Myosin heads join to the uncovered actin-binding points forming cross-bridges <u>(2</u>), and while doing so, ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate, which is released. Myofilaments slide impulsed by chemical energy collected in myosin heads, producing a power stroke. The power stroke initiates when the myosin cross-bridge binds to actin (<u>2</u>). As they slide, ADP molecules are released. A new ATP links to myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament.  Then ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is accumulated in the myosin heads, which starts a new binding cycle to actin. Finally, Z-bands are pulled toward each other, shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, producing muscle fiber contraction.

Cell walls in plant cells provide support and structure for the cell, allowing plants to 'stand up' without a skeleton. What are
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Cellulose

Explanation:

Cell walls made of cellulose are only found around plant cells and a few other organisms. Cellulose is a specialized sugar that is classified as a structural carbohydrate and not used for energy. ... While cell walls protect the cells, they also allow plants to grow to great heights. You have a skeleton to hold you up.
