Why do hurricanes weaken when they hit land

Biology
1 answer:
sasho [114]2 years ago
8 0

Answer: Tropical cyclones usually weaken when they hit land, because they are no longer being "fed" by the energy from the warm ocean waters. However, they often move far inland, dumping many inches of rain and causing lots of wind damage before they die out completely.

Which statement best explains the decrease in energy availability in a food chain?
Stolb23 [73]

Answer: The correct answer is D) Some energy in each trophic level is used for life processes.  

Food chain represents the flow of energy through various living organisms (which lie at different trophic levels) in an ecosystem. The energy flows from one trophic level to the next and it is decreased with subsequent trophic levels.

As per the law of 10% energy transfer, only 10 % of the energy is transferred from one level to the next as the rest of the energy at every trophic level is utilized in various metabolic processes like respiration, digestion, excretion and also liberated as heat in the surrounding.

Due to this, the energy available at any trophic level is less than the previous trophic level.

The DNA sequence TTG is changed to TCG and produces a new protein. Which type of mutation is this?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer: missense

Explanation:A missense mutation is a type of mutation in which there is a change in one single nucleotide in a DNA sequence which results in an altered mRNA sequence and consequent incorporation of wrong amino acid into the amino acid sequence of a protein. The single nucleotide change in DNA results in a different codon on the mRNA sequence and this leads to production of a protein that is different from the original protein. This change can affect the function of the protein, in most cases it makes the protein nonfunctional.

With the given dimensions, it is important to note that the space shuttle is still in need of the two solid rockets because it has to be propelled in the outer space at specified speed which is only attainable if there has been initially a force applied to it prior it is sent to the outer space.
