The correct answer among the choices provided is option A. Lung capillaries are responsible for exchanging carbon dioxide for oxygen from the air. Blood that comes from the heart gets oxygen from the alveoli. The carbon dioxide in the blood goes into the alveoli at the same time.

Explain what friction corollas and a low pressure gradient does to an air parcel?
Kipish [7]

Answer with Explanation:

Coriolis Force - refers to the fictitious force that acts perpendicularly to the direction of a rotating motion.

Air parcel - refers to a body of air that is <em>"imaginary."</em>

Pressure gradient - the change in pressure across a given distance.

Pressure gradient force - the net force that is being directed from high pressure to low pressure.

When an<em> air parcel is at rest, </em><u>the pressure gradient force acts upon it.</u> It will then move from<em> high pressure to low pressure.</em>

However, when the air parcel starts to be in motion, its direction will be changed with the help of the Coriolis force. Thus, it moves to the right side of the Northern hemisphere.

Once the speed of the wind increases, the change in direction of the air parcel increases. This happens until the pressure gradient force and the Coriolis Force are equal in magnitude. When this happens, the wind will start blowing parallel to the points of equal pressure. The wind will now then be referred to as in "geostrophic balance."

When friction happens, the geostrophic balance breaks. The flow of the wind will be slowed down. This means that the Coriolis force will also be lessened. The air parcel will then move towards the lower region.

Drupady [299]

Answer:

The role of carbon in biological systems is to allow the formation of organic molecules, in addition to providing energy for living beings.

Explanation:

Carbon is the fourth most abundant element on earth and one of the main elements of the viological systems, and its presence is essential for life on the planet to be maintained.

Carbon is necessary for all living beings, without exception. This is because it is used in the construction of organic molecules without which no living thing can survive, in addition to providing energy when it participates in sugar molecules, such as carbohydrates.

Nady [450]

Answer:

Valine-Leucine-Proline-Lysine-Histidine

Explanation:

The central dogma of biology is the process by which DNA is used to synthesize RNA and subsequently amino acid sequence (PROTEIN). The processes of transcription and translation is used in gene expression. Transcription is the process whereby the information encoded in a DNA molecule is used to synthesize a mRNA molecule. Transcription is catalyzed by RNA polymerase enzyme, which uses complementary base pairing rule i.e Adenine(A)-Thymine(T), Guanine(G)-Cytosine(C) pairing.

N.B: Thymine is replaced by Uracil in the mRNA

For the above DNA sequence: CAC GAC GGA TTC GTA, the mRNA sequence will be: GUG CUG CCU AAG CAU

Translation is the second process of gene expression which involves the synthesis of an amino acid sequence from an mRNA molecule. The mRNA is read in a group of three nucleotides called CODON. Each codon specifies an amino acid (see attached image for genetic code)

Based on the attached genetic code, an mRNA sequence: GUG CUG CCU AAG CAU will encode an amino acid sequence: Valine(Val) - Leucine (Leu) -Proline (Pro) -Lysine (Lys) - Histidine (His).

GUG specifies Valine amino acid

CUG specifies Leucine amino acid

CCU specifies Proline amino acid

AAG specifies Lysine amino acid

CAU specifies Histidine amino acid
