The Grand Canyon of Arizona is one of world’s largest and steepest canyons. It ranges up to 277 miles long and 18 miles wide. Its formation is carved due to the erosive power of the water’s current.  As heavy rains continue to occur, more rocks and stones erode and fall which adds length and width to the Grand Canyon.

Which statements in this passage about volcanoes do not contain factual errors?
belka [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option 2. "Scientists use seismometers to measure the earthquake activity that occurs beneath a volcano. They then predict the eruption of that volcano".

Explanation:

A seismometer is an equipment used by scientists to monitor ground's motion, including the earthquake activity that occurs beneath a volcano. These instruments are useful to predict if a volcanic eruption is imminent. By analyzing the length and strength of the ground's motion occurring during earthquake activity near a volcano, scientist could predict if an eruption is about to take place.

Which of the following characteristics, structures, or processes is common to both bacteria and viruses? A. Metabolism B. Riboso
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

C. Genetic material composed of nucleic acid

Explanation:

The information needed by every organism to perform life functions like reproduction, growth etc are held in the genetic material that the organism carries in its genome. Every genetic material of organisms is composed of nucleic acids, which are only two in nature i.e. Ribonucleic acid (RNA) and Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). This is a common feature of all organisms including bacteria and viruses that they contain genetic material which must be in form of a nucleic acid.

The viruses do not undergo a cell division, neither do they contain protein synthesis structures called Ribosomes because they do not have the ability to reproduce or perform any living process outside a living host cell. This means that they strictly depend on another organism's transcriptional, translational, replicational ability to survive.

Answer:

The first blank can be filled with tagging. One of the procedures for studying the movements, biology, and migration of animals is known as tagging of animals. Tagging is utilized to examine the long-range irregular and regular movements of animals and to identify their life-span. All kinds of mollusks, vertebrates, and insects can be tagged.  

The second blank can be filled with designate their area as a national park. Designation of the areas as a national park is one of the methods of conserving animals, like a tiger.

Jlenok [28]
The DNA, mRNA and tRNA are the essential nucleic acids that initiate protein synthesis. The DNA contains the genetic code of our human body in the form of chromosomes. It is composed of nucleic acids like uracil (U), guanine (G), adenine (A) and cytosine (C). The messenger RNA or mRNA carries this code called codons expressed in three-letter codes. Each amino acid has its own assignment of code. The mRNA carries this code to the ribosome which is the site for protein synthesis. The translational RNA or tRNA contains anti-codons to translate the codes in the mRNA into amino acids that link together to form proteins.
