Answer:
Uplift is a tectonic process that forces rock up from beneath earth's surface
Answer:
stratum spinosum
Explanation:
The stratum spinosum is the thickest layer of the epidermis which lies just above the basal layer. The stratum spinosum consists of basal cells that have matured into squamous cells, also known as keratinocytes.
Answer: All of the statements are true.
Explanation:
Purines are biologically synthesized as nucleotides and in particular as ribotides, that is, bases attached to ribose 5-phosphate. Adenine and guanine are both derived from the nucleotide inosine monophosphate (IMP), which is the first compound in the pathway to have a completely formed purine ring system.
Purine nucleotides can be synthesized in two distinct pathways. First, purines are synthesized de novo, starting with simple starting materials such as amino acids and bicarbonate. the purine bases are assembled already attached to the ribose ring. Alternatively, purine bases, released by the hydrolytic degradation of nucleic acids and nucleotides, can be salvaged and recycled. Purine salvage pathways are mostly noted for the energy that they save and the remarkable effects of their absence.
All statements are correct because the organization of purine synthetic enzymes involves multifunctional enzymes, reversible enzyme formations, through out the sequence there is maintenance of high local concentration and the ten steps requires only six enzymes.
Answer:
Introduction on Argentinian Red And, <em>Solenopsis invicta</em>, in the United States.
Explanation:
A species is considered to be introduced when it has been released intentionally or accidentally in a new place or area, out of its natural geographical distribution range, during historical times.
The, Argentinian Red Ant, Solenopsis invicta was introduced by accident in the United States in the 1930 year when some commercial ship coming from Brazil unloaded infested merchandise. Since that date, it has been colonizing several areas, expanding in a range of 30 to 50 kilometers per year. Nowadays it is occupying more than 110 million hectares, causing several problems:
- Biological problems: It is a very aggressive species that can <em>affect animals and plants</em>. In Texas, the <em>invertebrates' biodiversity decreased by 40% and the local ants decreased by 70%.</em> Their nests' building affects the roots of plants causing important <em>harvest losses</em>.
- Economical problems: The United States government has expended more than 250 million dollars trying to solve the problem, while the yearly losses exceed 1,000 dollars. The harvest losses have causes an important decrease in production.
- Sanitary problems: These ants might be considered dangerous as they have attacked people and animals. Texas invests 750,000 dollars a year to treat wounds in cattle and other affected animals.
There are some steps to prevent and reduce biological invasions, such as introduction prevention, eradication <em>when it is still possible</em>, contention to <em>avoid the species expansion</em>, expansion control (biological, mechanical, chemical), and restoration of the affected areas.
In the case of the Red Ant it would have been very important to control the state of the merchandise coming from Brazil to avoid the ant's introduction and its posterior spread. It also would have been important to deal harder with the problem when it was recently to avoid the ants' expansion by educating the people about invasive species and how to react about it, and by applying some eradication actions when it was possible. Nowadays the species is under control, but they can not completely eradicate it.
What organic compound is produced when three fatty acids molecules bonded to glycerol?
<span>Fats are large molecules that are composed of three fatty acid molecules bonded to a glycerol molecule. The fatty acid molecule is a long chain of covalently bonded carbon atoms with nonpolar bonds to hydrogen atoms all along the carbon chain with acarboxyl group attached to one end</span>
