What is the source of energy that powers a hydroelectric power plant?

Biology
1 answer:
Verdich [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:  Given your four choices, the best/most correct one would be (c) the sunlight that evaporated water that eventually falls as rain and fills the reservoir. It is the potential energy stored in the reservoir water which is "released" as it is converted to kinetic energy (the movement of water which spins the hydroelectric generator turbine, etc.), but the absolute source of that original potential energy comes from the Sun's action to evaporate lake or ocean water which is returned to Earth as rain ... and it is this rainwater which ultimately fills the reservoir behind the hydroelectric power plant.

What would happen if the bases in DNA strands were connected by a bond other than a hydrogen bond?
tekilochka [14]
The correct answer is It would be more difficult for DNA to unzip since it would require more energy to break the bonds.

That is because it would most probably be a covalent bond and such a bond is stronger than a hydrogen bond which means that more energy would be needed to break it.

Think about the dna coding sequence of a gene. if an a were swapped for a t, what kind of mutation could it cause and why?
sukhopar [10]
If an A (Adenine) were swapped for a T (Thymine) it will lead to A TRANSVERSION TYPE OF POINT MUTATION.

Replacement of an A with a T is a transversion type of point mutation because in transversion the purine is replaced with a pyrimidine. Since in this case only one nucleotide is replaced, it is a point mutation.
