9. On some small islands in the Pacific Ocean, the average sea level is rising on the beaches little by little each year. Reside

nts of the islands are worried that their island, and their homes, may become flooded in a few years. What is the most likely cause for the water level to increase?
a. They are getting more rain in their area.
b. The tides are more dramatic because of the number of full moons they have experienced.
c. Ice from the North and South poles is melting and adding to the water in the ocean.
d. The waves are bigger because of increased winds.

10. Hurricanes are large storms that form over warm waters out in the ocean. Hurricanes are associated with low-pressure regions in the atmosphere. How does the low pressure associated with a hurricane help them to grow big and powerful?
a. Air in the atmosphere tends to move toward low-pressure regions, which would increase the winds surrounding a hurricane.
b. Low-pressure regions push away other air in the atmosphere, which would make the hurricane bigger.
c. Low-pressure air heats up the water and therefore makes the hurricane stronger.
d. Low-pressure conditions means slow winds, which makes the hurricane stronger.

11. Based on the northern location of England on the map, it appears that it would have a cold, harsh climate. In reality, England has a mild climate because of the warm Gulf Stream current in the Atlantic Ocean. How does the Gulf Stream current help keep England's climate mild?
a. The warm water of the Gulf Stream warms the land of England where they meet.
b. The warm Gulf Stream waters heat the air over the ocean, which then moves over England.
c. The warm Gulf Stream waters make the air very humid, which results in a milder climate in England.
d. The warm Gulf Stream waters attract the cold air from England, thus keeping England mild.

12. The atmosphere surrounding Earth helps to maintain the various climates found around the world and keeps Earth from becoming extremely cold all over. How does the atmosphere help to keep Earth insulated and warm?
a. The atmosphere creates heat as Earth moves through space, helping to insulate Earth.
b. The atmosphere traps the heat generated by Earth's core and helps maintain Earth's climate.
c. The atmosphere helps spread the warmth from the water near the equator to other parts of Earth.
d. The atmosphere helps trap heat energy from the Sun and energy radiated from Earth to maintain the climate.

13. Convection currents in the atmosphere influence many weather patterns. What property of the air has the most influence on convection currents?
a. the direction of the wind
b. the velocity of the wind
c. the temperature of the air
d. the mass of the air

14. When nitrogen is returned to the soil when dead plants decompose, the interaction is between which two spheres?
a. Hydrosphere and geosphere
b. Cryosphere and geosphere

DELETION OF SNORD116, A PRADER-WILLI SYNDROME CANDIDATE GENE, DOES NOT AFFECT CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS IN MICE MODELS
Vlada [557]

Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a gentic disorder which has an impact on numerous physiological systems. PWS affected individuals (specifically babies) experience delayed growth, significant hypotonia (low muscle tone), and feeding issues. It does effect circadian rhythms in mice models.

SNORD116, often referred to as HBII-85, is a non-coding RNA (ncRNA) molecule that contributes to the alteration of other small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs). Unlike the majority of other snoRNAs, SNORD116 is not significantly complementary to ribosomal RNA and is expressed widely in the brain (but not in PWS patients).

According to the studies, SNORD116 cause sleep defect in patients with Prader-Willi syndrome. Same observation was seen in mouse models too. Paternal expression of SNORD116 is thought to be a potential gene for the sleep disruptions/circadian rhythm’s that the majority of PWS sufferers.

Describe the three types of predation and give an example of each.
uranmaximum [27]
<span>True predation is when a predator kills and eats its prey. Some predators of this type, such as jaguars, kill large prey. They tear it apart and chew it before eating it. Others, like bottlenose dolphins or snakes, may eat their prey whole. In some cases, the prey dies in the mouth or the digestive system of the predator. Baleen whales, for example, eat millions of plankton at once. The prey is digested afterward. True predators may hunt actively for prey, or they may sit and wait for prey to get within striking distance. In grazing , the predator eats part of the prey but does not usually kill it. You may have seen cows grazing on grass. The grass they eat grows back, so there is no real effect on the population. In the ocean, kelp (a type of seaweed) can regrow after being eaten by fish.</span>

For the reaction C6H 1206C02+ H208 428 g of C6 H 1206 is consumed producing a 3.1 M solution of CO2 what is the volume of CO2 pr
timofeeve [1]
I think it’s m(C6H12O6) = 856 g

M(C6H12O6) = 12*6+1*12+16*6 = 180 g/mol

n(C6H12O6) = m/M = 856 g / 180 g/mol = 4.756 mol

n(CO2) = 6*4.756 = 28.536 mol

M(CO2) = 12+16*2 = 44 g/mol

m(CO2) = n*M = 28.536mol*44g/mol = 1255.584 g
