Answer:

cellulose    

Explanation:

Examples of lipids include fats, oils, waxes, certain vitamins (such as A, D, E and K), hormones and most of the cell membrane that is not made up of protein. Therefore waxes are not the answer.

Steroids are lipids because they are hydrophobic and insoluble in water, but they do not resemble lipids since they have a structure composed of four fused rings. Cholesterol is the most common steroid and is the precursor to vitamin D, testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, aldosterone, cortisol, and bile salts. Therefore steroid and cholesterol is not the answer.

Warm surface waters get depleted of nutrients and carbon dioxide, but they enrich again as they travel through ________ waters i
Nonamiya [84]

Answer: Option B. "Deep"

Explanation:

Thermohaline circulation helps to drive the global conveyor belt, which is a global-scale system of currents. Due to the movement of ocean currents through different polar regions, it allows depletion of nutrients and carbon dioxide at surface waters and get enrich again as move through deep waters in the conveyor belt.

Winds in the ocean helps to  drive ocean currents in the upper ocean’s surface and these ocean currents moves below the ocean surface as well. the process that controls the movement of ocean current deep in the ocean is called Thermohaline circulation that  is based on differences in the water’s density,  and controlled by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline).

Thermohaline circulation forms in the polar regions of Earth. Ocean water in the polar region gets colds that allows the formation of sea ice, which in turn make the surrounding seawater saltier and increases the ice density and sinks. This allows the deep-ocean currents to drive the Global conveyer belt.

The conveyor belt starts from the surface of North Atlantic pole, where seawater become saltier and ice starts sinking.  This deep water heads south along the western Atlantic basin. The conveyor belt get recharged as it travels along the coast of Antarctica and carries more cold, salty, dense water. The current get divided into two different sections, one traveling to the Indian Ocean and the other moves into the Pacific Ocean. The two sections of the current get warm and rises, as they travel northward, then turn back around  westward and southward.

The warmed surface waters continue to circulate around the globe and follows depletion of nutrients and carbon dioxide. But they get enrich again when they travel through deep waters all around the the  Global conveyer belt.

Hence, the correct answer is option is B "Deep".

What information can not be obtained from the sequence of a gene? view available hint(s) what information can not be obtained fr
olganol [36]

The right answer is A.

The methylation profile of DNA is not obtained when DNA sequencing is performed.

Methylation is a process that can occur in DNA especially at the cytosine level. And this has a very important role in gene expression as it is part of the epigenetic expression.

Gene methylation can induce or repress gene expression depending on the localization of methylated bases.
