  • By coding for a given protein, gene determines the traits or characteristics of an individual. During the process of transcription, a process catalyzed by enzyme RNA polymerase, a gene is use to generate a messenger RNA, which then undergoes the process of translation in the cytoplasm to form proteins.

Which formation is the result of wind erosion?

Answers

Of the following given choices;

A. glacial erratics B. U-shaped valleys C. unusually shaped rocks D. mudslides.

The answer is; C.

The wind carries soil particles is it blows. These soil particle hit on rocks in their path and over time gradually erode the rocks. An example of this type of erosion is the aeolian process. Usually the bottom o the rock is eroded more than the top. This is because the bottom is hit by larger soil particles that are heavier to carry by the wind. An example of rock formed in this process is attached in the picture below.

Match each microorganism with the correct description. 1. single-celled organism with a nucleus that feeds on other microorganisms bacteria 2. tiny bundle of genetic material that can cause disease rickettsiae 3. multicellular or unicellular organism with no roots or chlorophyll fungi 4. unicellular organisms in Monera kingdom virus 5. type of bacteria that grows in living cells protozoa

Answers

1. Protozoa are single celled, eukaryotic organisms that exhibit animal-like behaviour.2. Viruses consists only of genetic material and a protein coat, and they are known to cause a wide variety of diseases such as AIDS.3. Fungi have characteristics similar to plants, but they do not have root systems like plants do and they also do not rely on chlorophyll to photosynthesize.4. Bacteria make up this category.5. Rickettsiae is a genus of bacteria that are intracellular parasites.

People with diabetes often receive insulin injections. What effect does insulin have on the body?

Answers

Answer:

Insulin is secreted by the pancreas which regulates the blood glucose level in the blood. Insulin generally reduces the blood glucose level by depositing the glucose in the liver and muscles as glycogen.

In diabetic people, enough insulin is not produced by the pancreas as a result glucose level increases in the blood which is called hyperglycemia. So in this condition, insulin injection is given from outside to increase the level of insulin in the blood.

Then this increased level of insulin helps in reducing the extra amount of insulin from the blood by accumulation it on the liver. Therefore insulin play a role in reducing the extra amount of free glucose from the blood.
It has the same affect as insulin that the body produces. It reacts with glucagon (I think. It is that or gycogen) to create glucose

Often, the second part of a scientific name is _________. a description of a trait or habitat the same as for other members of the same genus capitalized if it derives from a proper name different in different locations

Answers

 Species names are binominal which means they consist of two words. The first word is the generic name. The second word has been called "specific name"  The first letter of the first word is capitalized while the first letter of the second word is not capitalized.  The answer here is A. 

Answer: The correct answer for the blank is-

a description of a trait or habitat.

According to the binomial system of classification, living organisms can be named scientifically, using two words. The first word in the scientific name of the organism corresponds to the Genus and the second word/ part is the species to which the organism belongs. The second part that is the species depicts the description of a trait or habitat.

For example- Scientific name for Human beings is Homo sapiens, which shows that they belong to species 'sapiens' that gives description of human beings.

Thus, first option is the right answer.
