It allows them to glide smoothly through the water with less resistance, which saves their energy & makes them fast swimmers.

Most of the marine animals have a stream lined body, which means, they have a sharp and pointed at the front. The pointed front of the organism allow to cut the resistance of the water. In case, the body is not pointed at the front and it is blunt, the water current and flow would resist the movement of the organism further. So, for the locomotion purpose, it is important to have a streamlined body. Further smooth and hair less body also decrease the resistance during the movement in the water.

The fact that they do not dissolve shows that it is a lipid. This is further supported by the fact that the liquid remains collect to form a giant droplet. This occurs as oil/lipids are hydrophobic and thus tend to collect in clumps.

The backbone of DNA and RNA is composed of_________ . DNA is double stranded due to interactions between adenine, cytosine, guan
o-na [289]

A sugar-phosphate backbone (alternating grey-dark grey) joins together nucleotides in a DNA sequence. The sugar-phosphate backbone forms the structural framework of nucleic acids, including DNA and RNA. This backbone is composed of alternating sugar and phosphate groups, and defines directionality of the molecule.The two strands run in opposite directions, one going in a 3' to 5' direction and the other going in a 5' to 3' direction. The nitrogenous bases are positioned inside the helix structure like "rungs on a ladder," due to the hydrophobic effect, and stabilized by hydrogen bonding. Uracil is one of the four nucleobases in the nucleic acid of RNA that are represented by the letters A, G, C and U. The others are adenine, cytosine, and guanine. In RNA, uracil binds to adenine via two hydrogen bonds. In DNA, the uracil nucleobase is replaced by thymine. Uracil is a demethylated form of thymine.

A germ cell and zygote represents the biological level of organization. __________
kompoz [17]

Answer: Cell

Explanation:

The cell is the structural and functional unit of life. It is the the most basic level. A life starts from a single cell.

When a male and female gamete(germ cell) fuse together they form zygote. Firstly it is a single cell surviving inside the mother's womb.

Then differentiation takes place and the cell keeps on dividing to form different tissue layers and then organs form which makes a complete baby. Hence, zygote and germ cell are cellular level of organization.

Which two factors contributed to creating a truly global culture? a decrease in population growth rate improvements in telecommu
lora16 [44]

Answer:

1. Improvements in telecommunication

2. Improvements in global travel

Explanation:

Global culture refers to <u>the transmission of beliefs, values, and ideas around the world that has a significant impact in the behavior of society</u>. This has been evolving through time, especially since the Industrial Revolution. Today, we are capable of communicating with other people as quickly and easy as ever in the history of humanity and this will keep evolving as technology evolves as well.

This evolution is due to science and technology, especially to the improvements in telecommunication, which <u>enables us to communicate with people from other countries through calls, social media messagings, e-mails, etc.</u>, and to the improvements in global travel, which is <u>much more accessible today than it was before, allowing individuals to move from one country to the other easily and constantly and improving socialization between people from different cultures and backgrounds.</u>

specific example of a conflict that might occur due to individualism and collectivism. Explain briefly.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

The very definitions of ‘individualism’ and ‘collectivism’ are, by themselves, ideological definitions.

Reality shows us that these two ‘ideologies’ are pragmatically practiced, with one or the other being the policy-making ideology. We have already seen the results of

collectivism, as gruesomely displayed during the 75 year life of the ‘late’ Soviet Union, and the CONTINUING forms of that totalitarian collectivism in the People’s Republic of China and North Korea.

Tiananmen Square in China was the classic confrontation conflict

of the individual dissidents against the tyrannical Chinese State.

The United States, Australia, and some of the European states tend to exhibit MORE individualism by virtue of their democratic forms of government. There is NO ‘ pure individualism’ anywhere on Earth, as all national populations have their civic codes and regulations governing individual behavior.

Philosophically AND practically speaking, it is ALWAYS the individual that will be oppressed by the governing state[collectivism] - I know of NO instance -ever -where any individual person oppressed an established government.
