In the early days of life on Earth, plants were exposed to extremely high doses of ultraviolet radiation, Constant UV exposure
resulted in some land plants developing narrow leaves with thick, waxy cuticles. Over many, many generations, these narrow
leaves evolved into needles.
Relate the development of plant needles to the occurrence of mutations,
A)
Plant needles adaptations for survival that some plants developed due to
high temperatures on Earth
B)
Plant needles are the result of leaf cell mutations that made some leaves
thick and waxy, while other leaves did not change,
Plant needles are the result of neutral mutations to leaf tissue that would
neither help nor harm the plants living in such a harsh environment.
D)
Plant needles were a beneficial mutation that increased survival of certain
plants that reproduced and passed the mutated gene to offspring,

To produce more ATP molecules.

Explanation:

The advantage of an increase in the number of mitochondria in slow twitch fibers is to provide more ATP is provided to the muscles. These large number of mitochondria is responsible for the production of large amount of ATP which is a fuel that is used by the muscles of the boy in order to continue working. There is high burden on the slow twitch fibres in order to continue its movement, more mitochondria is needed.

How does convection cause ocean currents?
A. During the process of convection, energy is transferred to the atmosphere forming winds. These winds power surface currents.
B. During the process of convection, the heating of surface water by the sun results in upwelling.
C. During the process of convection, energy in warm water is lost to its surroundings. The water cools, becomes denser, and sinks.
D. During the process of convection, more minerals and gases dissolve in warm water. This increases the density of the warm water and causes it to sink.

Answers

Answer:

C. During the process of convection, energy in warm water is lost to its surroundings. The water cools, becomes denser, and sinks.

Explanation:

Convection refers to the process of transference of heat from one place to another by the movement of gas/liquid particles. Convection occurs when a gas or liquid substance is heated, thereby it expands (increase its volume) by gaining kinetic energy and moving far apart. Energy in the atmosphere and oceans is transferred mainly by convection. In the atmosphere, convection produces wind belts. Moreover, an ocean current is the result of the continuous movement of seawater caused by different forces acting upon the water (i.e., wind, the Coriolis effect, waves, temperature). In the oceans, convection produces currents because the seawater heats up becoming less dense and moves above cooler seawater, emitting heat during the process and causing the continual circulation of water.

A fertilizer company is trying to find a new herbal pesticide to add to its product. Company managers know that peppermint oil or lavender oil will be used. They also know that the time of day the fertilizer is applied, morning and night, affects the pesticide. An experiment will compare all combinations of these choices. Three types of insects will be subjected to each treatment and scored for quality. What are the treatments

Answers

Answer:

Peppermint oil and morning, peppermint oil and night, lavender oil and morning, lavender oil and night

Step-by-step explanation:

Fertilisers are substances, which could be organic or inorganic, that is added to soil to increase crop yield.

Pesticide can be defined as substances that are used to control pests in an environment. Example of a pesticide includes:

- fungicides,

- herbicides( these are used to kill unwanted plants) and

- insecticides.

From the existing knowledge that the time of day the fertilizer is applied, morning and night affects the pesticide, and the Company managers know that peppermint oil or lavender oil will be used.

The insects should be subjected to the following treatments to effectively compare all combinations of these choices listed above:

- Peppermint oil and morning,

- peppermint oil and night,

- lavender oil and morning,

- lavender oil and night

What type of RNA acts as a temporary copy of DNA's instructions and provides details on how to assemble a polypeptide
chain?

Answers

Answer:

mRNA

Explanation:

There are three types of ribonucleic acid (RNA) viz: messenger RNA, ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and transfer RNA (tRNA). These three RNA types function differently from one another. mRNA is a type of RNA that conveys genetic information that was previously stored in DNA into the ribosome for translation i.e. synthesis of amino sequence.

In other words, mRNA acts as a temporary copy of DNA's instructions and provides details on how to assemble a polypeptide chain using the amino acid sequence that arise from translating it in the ribosomes.
