How did Wegener use the similar mountain ranges and areas made of certain types of rock found
Africa and South America as evidence that these two continents were once connected?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Due to similar chemical composition of rocks of both continents.

Explanation:

Wegener use the similar mountain ranges and areas as evidence that these two continents i. e. Africa and South America were once connected because of their same chemical composition of rocks. Before 175 million years ago all the continents are joined with each other which we called as supercontinent. Due to this, we can say that Africa and South America is also connected to each other and having same rock chemical composition.

I c. They both store energy in chemical bonds.
D. They are both used as fuel.

Answers

It is A , d , and c . I can bet my last bagel bite

An organic compound that has an OH group on its side chain is called ethanol. It is flammable and a volatile liquid. Whereas, Glucose is a simple sugar molecule that has carbon and aldehyde groups.

The correct answer is:

Option A. They are both carbon-based molecules.

Option C. They both store energy in chemical bonds.

Option D. They are both used as fuel.

This can be explained as:

Ethanol and glucose both have carbon atoms in their structures. Ethanol is written as C₂H₅OH and Glucose as C₆H₁₂O₆.

The energy in both the molecules is stored in their bonds.

Glucose is used as fuel in living organisms while ethanol is a bio-fuel derived from microorganisms.

Therefore, ethanol and glucose are similar in structures and some functions.

Answer: It's A.

Explanation: I am doing UsatestPrep, Now I got this answer wrong, but afterwards it told me the right answer is! "Mass increases at the crust" I got the answer wrong originally because I chose B but it's actually A.

Answer:

Its A because Mass increases at the crust. . Mass is actually decreasing due to erosion of the crust, isostatic adjustment will thus, cause the mantle mass to increase over time.

Predict the method that estrogen will initiate the reception process in its cell signaling pathway.

a. Estrogen will bind to a transmembrane signal receptor that activates cell-signaling pathways.
b. Estrogen will act as a steroid signal receptor that activates ion channel proteins.
c. Estrogen will serve as a second messenger that activates cell-signaling pathways.
d. Estrogen will bind to a receptor protein that enters the nucleus and activates specific genes.

Answers

Answer:

d. Estrogen will bind to a receptor protein that enters the nucleus and activates specific genes.

Explanation:

Estrogens are small lipophilic molecules synthesized from cholesterol. This steroid hormone (estrogen) is able to directly enter into the cell nucleus to bind with their corresponding receptors. Subsequently, estrogen-receptor binding stimulates these receptors to form dimeric structures that bind to DNA and thus activate gene expression. Estrogen receptors interact with DNA and activate gene expression through zinc finger domains composed of four (4) cysteine residues surrounding a zinc atom.

Provide a summary of what happens during DNA replication using the following words: Helicase, DNA
polymerase, Primase, Ligase, Parent strand, new strand, nucleotides, and semi-conservative model.

Answers

Answer:

Please find the summary of what happens during DNA replication below

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process by which a DNA molecule is duplicated into two identical copies. It occurs in the nucleus of the cell prior to any cellular division. The process includes:

- The double stranded DNA is first unwound by an enzyme called DNA HELICASE into a replication fork consisting of two single strands of DNA.

- Another enzyme called DNA POLYMERASE binds to the DNA and begins to add NUCLEOTIDES to each strand using complementary base pairing rule i.e. A-T, G-C. To do this, short sequences of RNA called PRIMER are synthesized by an enzyme called PRIMASE, which serves as building block for DNA polymerase to act.

- However, DNA POLYMERASE can only work in the 5'-3' direction i.e. on the leading strand which runs from 3'-5' direction. Short pieces of DNA called OKAZAKI fragments are synthesized on the lagging strand, which runs from 5'-3' direction.

- An enzyme called LIGASE joins the okazaki fragments together into a whole DNA on the lagging strand.

After the replication process which follows the SEMI-CONSERVATIVE MODEL of replication, each DNA molecule will contain one old strand called PARENT STRAND and one NEW strand.
