A factory is emitting large amounts of CFCs into the atmosphere. How might this affect people?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

CFC (chlorofluorocarbon), including freon, is used as the aerosol propellant. An aerosol is a suspension in the gaseous form of solid or liquid particles. When these compounds reach the stratosphere, UV light affects them and they release chlorine atoms. Chlorine atoms are capable of breaking down ozone molecules. With fewer ozone molecules, the ozone layer becomes thinner and harmful UV light passes through it causing many health problems, such as skin cancer.

What is the purpose of transfer rna

Answers

Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a type of ribonucleic acid. It brings amino acids to the ribosomes and mRNA for the structural organization into proteins. Thus, option D is correct.

What is tRNA?

tRNA is an adaptor molecule that decodes the mRNA sequences in the form of amino acids through the ribosomes. It is involved in the translation process of complex protein synthesis.

tRNA transports the amino acids (codons) to the ribosomes to join them with their complementary (anti-codon) sequence for the polypeptide assembly.

Therefore, the tRNA carries amino acids for polypeptide formation.

Considering that nearly 85 percent of corn crops are genetically engineered, which impact does genetically engineered corn have on human health?

Answers

Genetically modified crops are genetically engineered such that a desired trait is enhanced or reproduced to appear in every offspring. Genetically engineered corn has been engineered to resist pests and herbicides; thus, we have more yield and many people especially in the low class society can afford. A disadvantage, yet is still a debate, is that genetically engineered crops such as corn, has toxic effects to internal organs such as our liver, a vital internal organ. 

Answer:

The long-term effects are unknown and have not been studied because it is a fairly new technology.

Explanation:

Just took the test.

Which statement is true about a cell wall but not a cell membrane

Answers

One statement that might be true about cell walls but not about cell membranes is that they are usually made out of cellulose. Plant cells have cell walls, and animal cells have cell membranes, but cell membranes need to made from a more permeable material to allow things to pass in and out more easily.

Answer:

cell membranes need to made from a more permeable material to allow things to pass in and out more easily. and cell walls are not.

Compare and contrast the process of digestion in cindarians and echinoderms

Answers

Some of the major difference in the digestive system of Cnidarians and echinoderm are  

Cnidarians have an incomplete digestive system specifically extracellular digestion occur, where enzymes break down the food particles are degraded by enzymes and absorption occur in its gastrovascular cavity.

While in echinoderms, the digestive system may vary depending on types of species and need of their food types.

They use of tube feet to reach to their food sources and  move their mouth area toward the food. Their digestive system relatively simple when compare with human.

What are the differences between cnidarians and echinoderms?

In Cnidaria only have gastrovascular cavity, diploblastic, presence of stinging cell, Hydrostatic skeleton etc.

In Echinoderm have triploblastic,   water vascular system with unique characteristics, calcareous endoskeleton etc.

Echinoderms have no excretory or respiratory systems.

cnidaria - incomplete digestion [have only a single opening] ,digestion is extracellular and intracellular ,they have stinging casules called cnidoblast which helps for anchorage,defence and capture prey.
echinodermata - complete digestion[mouth on ventral,anus on dorsal],have water vascular system helps in locomotion ,capture of prey,transport of food....digestion is intracellular
