Which of the following terms describes the movement of water from the surface to the atmosphere?

Biology
1 answer:
lukranit [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The answer is evaporation.

Explanation:

Runoff is not right because runoff is water that hits the surface of the earth, then runs down into natural bodies of water. It is not condensation either. That is because condensation is when cool water vapor comes into contact with humid, warm air causes water droplets to appear on the surface of what is containing the cool water vapor. Finally, precipitation is when water comes down from the atmosphere to the surface of the earth, therefore this is incorrect. Evaporation however is when water from the surface of the earth turns into water vapor and goes into the atmosphere. Therefore it is the right answer.

The process of translation in prokaryotes can occur faster than in eukaryotes because
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Transcription and translation occur simultaneously in prokaryotes.

Explanation:

Prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles and therefore, do not have a nucleus. Transcription and translation occur in the cytoplasm. As soon as the required length of mRNA is being formed, ribosomes join it and start the process of translation. Prokaryotic genes lack introns. The primary transcript formed by transcription in prokaryotes does not undergo splicing.

On the other hand, the process of transcription occurs in the nucleus in eukaryotes while translation occurs in the cytoplasm. The primary transcript formed by transcription in eukaryotes undergoes modifications to remove introns and to add a poly-A tail and 5' cap. Post-transcriptional modifications and spatial separation of two processes in eukaryotes result in slower translation than prokaryotes.
