solar winds because they affect the magnetic field and cause the auroras


MAXImum [283]1 year ago

Answer:

Solar winds

Explanation:

Auroras are beautiful colorful lights in the sky. This phenomenon occurs when charged particles (Solar Winds) from the Sun interacts with the magnetic field of the Earth. Photons are released when the electrons in the atoms of the atmosphere drop from high energy state to low energy state. The color depends upon the type of gas present. It usually occurs near the poles as the strength of the magnetic field is strongest near them. Northern light or Aurora Borealis occurs around north pole and southern lights or Aurora Australis around south pole.

Wittaler [7]
The data supports the fourth choice, that increasing air temperature and CO2 levels correlate with a decrease in dust concentration.

The first choice is unlikely to reflect dust concentration, and is more likely to be for air temperature. The second choice is false, because the dust concentration is more of a decreasing trend. The third choice is not true, as the spikes in air temperature and atmospheric CO2 concentrations seem to occur simultaneously, implying a positive correlation.

Which adaptation helps polar bears maintain a constant internal temperature (thermal homeostasis) in cold weather? three layers
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

The polar bear is an animal which is prevalent in the arctic region of the world which is characterized by very cold icy climate.

They adapt to these climatic conditions by maintaining a body temperature of 37°C through its thick fur and tough skin. It also has an insulating fat layer (adipose tissues) which is very thick.

This insulation helps in keeping the animal very warm in extreme temperatures.

. The separation of DNA strands moves outward from the origin via the action of ___________, which untwists the double helix and
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

<h2>Helicase,  topoisomerase ii /gyrase, single strand binding proteins.</h2>

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process in which DNA is replicated with the help of various enzymes and proteins..

Helicase is the enzyme which unwind the DNA strands, After unwinding, topoisomerase removes these twists. Single strand binding proteins  stabilize the single strands of DNA during replication.

Calix’s karyotype showed that he has a genotype of XXY. Explain how nondisjunction caused Calix to be XXY.
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

A XY or XY gamete fuses with a normal gamete (X or Y)

Explanation:

Meiotic nondisjunction is the phenomenon whereby chromosomes fail to separate during meiosis I or II. Meiotic nondisjunction leads to the formation of abnormal gametes I.e. gametes with additional or missing chromosomal piece.

The fusion of these abnormal gametes produced by nondisijuction with a normal gamete (X or Y chromosome). This leads to a condition called ANEUPLOIDY, which is a chromosomal disorder. In the case od Calix, XXY is an ANEUPLOIDY state that could have resulted because there was a fusion between a XX gamete and Y gamete or XY and X. The XY or XX gametes are produced as a result of nondisijuction.

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.
