Answer:

Explanation:

The Carbon Cycle is the cycle of where carbon is circulated all over, from the atmosphere to Earth, and back. Our planet is a closed environment thanks to our atmosphere, and so the density and amount of Carbon in circulation is always the same. Carbon is released to the never ending cycle by volcanoes, fossil fuels, and other natural processes. Most of the Carbon on Earth is stored in rocks and the ground, while the rest is everywhere else.

Learning Competencies: 1. Explain how protein is made using information from DNA. 2. Explain how mutation may cause changes in t

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

1. protein synthesis or central dogma

2. leads to changes in the structure by changing in the codes which results in a decrease or loss of function.

Explanation:

1, Protein is made from the information coded in DNA base sequences by the two process protein synthesis that is also called central dogma. The two-process involve in this are transcription involves encoding the information present in DNA by mRNA molecule that codes the information in complementary sequence to DNA. which is then moved out of the nucleus and perform the translation with help of tRNA and ribosome to code the amino acid with help of triplet codes present in mRNA. These amino acids chain are called proteins.

2. Mutations can lead to change in the base sequences or deletion of the base which affects the structure of the protein and also leads to changes in an encoded protein or to a decrease or complete loss in its function or expression. Mutation can damage the cell or organism as it affects the gene expression of all cells of organisms.

In hamsters, we can examine the genes for coat color and eye color which are linked:B = brown coat, b = white coat, G = green ey

Inessa [10]

Answer:

10.2 cM

Explanation:

Given,

pure breeding parent 1 : BBgg = brown coat and pink eyes

pure breeding parent 2 : bbGG = white coat and green eyes

BBGG X bbgg = F1 = BbGg ( All are brown with green eyes )

When F1 progeny is test crossed with white coat and pink eyes hamster:

BbGg X BbGg = F2 =

brown, pink eyes = 99 = parental

white, green eyes = 103 = parental

brown, green eyes = 12 = recombinant

white, pink eyes = 11 = recombinant

Recombination frequency =

(total number of recombinants / total progeny ) * 100

= [( 11 + 12 ) / ( 99 + 103 + 12 + 11 )] * 100 = (23/225)*100 = 0.102 * 100 = 10.2 %

1 % recombination frequency = 1 cM distance between genes

Hence, the distance between B and G gene is 10.2 cM

Why do substances change states of matter and how does the kinetic theory explain this?

ololo11 [35]

The temperature of a substance is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles. A change in phase may occur when the energy of the particles is changed. ... There are attractive forces between atoms molecules, and these become stronger as the particles move closer together
