The rotation of the earth

The Coriolis Effect is caused by Earth’s uneven distribution of heat AND the rotation of the earth

Explanation:

Due to the spherical nature of the earth, when it spins, around its axis, different latitudes spin at different rates. The nearer to the pole you get the slower the earth’s spins (approx 0.00008 kilometers/hr), while this spin is fastest at the equator ( approx1,600 kilometers/hr). Due to this differential spin, ocean and winds currents (while they move polewards due to convection) are deflected as they move towards the pole from the equator. Towards the North, they are deflected westwards while towards the South they are deflected eastwards.

Which statement about DNA replication is FALSE?
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

C. DNA ligase adds nucleotides to the lagging strand

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process during cell division in which DNA copies itself. DNA strands unwind with the help of helicase to initiate the process. DNA Polymerase III is responsible for prokaryotic replication and adds nucleotides in 5' to 3' direction. Since both the strands of DNA run in opposite direction their replication is slightly different. The lagging strand is also formed by DNA Polymerase III in discontinuous manner leading to formation of Okazaki fragments. DNA ligase joins these fragments once the replication process is completed.

In the male reproductive system, the pituitary hormone _____ stimulates Leydig cells to secrete testosterone, and the pituitary
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

<u>Luteinizing hormone </u>(LH) stimulates Leydig cells to secrete testosterone

<u>Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)</u> stimulates Sertoli cells to secrete protein and other molecules required for spermatogenesis

Explanation:

Under the influence of gonadotropin-releasing hormone, the anterior pituitary releases luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). In males, LH stimulates interstitial cells of testes (Leydig cell) to secrete the hormone testosterone. FSH acts indirectly to stimulate spermatogenesis by causing the release of androgen-binding protein (ABP) from the Sertoli cells. The function of ABP is to maintain the higher concentrations of testosterone to stimulate the final steps of spermatogenesis in the seminiferous tubules.
