Answer:

<h2>A</h2>

Explanation:

1. As given, the of a strand DNA contain sequence;

A-T-G-C-C-A-T-C-G-G-T-A,

2. After exposure to UV light, the strand contain the bases;

A-T-G-G*-C-C-A-T-C-G-G-T-A,

3. By comparing both the strands, we find that, the strand of DNA after exposure to UV contain extra G nucleotide between G and C, which is resulted by an insertion.

So we can say that, a new base has been inserted.

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Particulate matter

Explanation:

An electrostatic precipitator is an air filter. For this reason, we can say that the air pollutant that would be captured if electrostatic precipitates were installed in the exhaust systems would be the particulate matter.

An electrostatic precipitator is very effective in controlling atmospheric pollution in an industry, factory or even a plant that emits polluting gases into the atmosphere. This equipment captures the polluting particles, leaving only the clean private gas to be transferred to the atmosphere.

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) requires phosphorylase activity.

What portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is most absorbed by the chlorophyll pigments in the thylakoid membr?
vfiekz [6]
<span>Chlorophyll is essential in photosynthesis, allowing plants to absorb energy from light. Chlorophylls absorb light most strongly in the blue portion of the electromagnetic spectrum as well as the red portion. The absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a alone underestimates the effectiveness of certain wavelengths in driving photosynthesis. This is partly because accessory pigments with different absorption spectra are also photosynthetically important in chloroplasts and broaden the spectrum of colors that can be used for photosynthesis.</span>

why does the presence of 22 large herbivore species at Mpala seem to contradict the competitive exclusion principle Dr. Pringle
stealth61 [152]

Dr. Pringle suggests that there's only very few large herbivorous species that can survive in certain area. The reason behind his claim is that according to him there will be only enough food for few large species, so there's natural limitations in the food sources, as there should be enough to support them in order for them to survive.

On the other hand, in Mpala, there's 22 large herbivorous species, which directly contradicts Dr. Pringle's hypothesis. The reason why so many large species of herbivores an survive in Mpala and always have enough food for all of them, is that they have all specialized in eating certain types of plants or parts of plants, thus they are not direct competition to one another, and there's always enough food for all of them.
