What is genetic code?

Answers

The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded within genetic material (DNA or mRNA sequences) is translated into protines  by living cells

Answer: it is D

Explanation:

Your gender, whether you are male or female, is determined by theA) X or Y chromosomes, inherited from father.
B) X or Y chromosomes, inherited from your mother.
C) two of the 22 pairs of chromosomes your inherited.
D) chromosomes from your mother and X from your father.

Answers

The answer is A. Females chromosomes are XX, males are XY. So from your mother you will get an X no matter what and it depends on whether you get an X or a Y from your father :) sorry this is late :)

Answer:

The correct answer would be option A.

In humans, the gender of a child is mainly determined by the sex chromosome inherited from the father.

It is because human females are homozygous (XX) in terms of sex chromosome. So, their gamete will always contain an X chromosome.

In contrast, human males are heterozygous, that is, they contain XY as sex chromosome. Thus, they will produce two types of gametes of which one would contain X and the other one would contain Y.

When the male gamete containing X chromosome fuse with female gamete, the offspring produce would be a girl and when the male gamete containing Y chromosome fuse with female gamete, the offspring produce would be a boy.

According to the theory of isostasy, which statement must be true?A. The asthenosphere has the same density as the lithosphere.
B. The lithosphere is denser than the asthenosphere.
C. The asthenosphere is denser than the lithosphere.
D. The lithosphere has the same density as the core.

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Isostatic equilibrium is used to state why some regions of the lithosphere have greater elevation than others. The crust ‘floats’on the‘liquid’ mantle below and different regions  of the crust submerge into the mantle differentially depending on their local densities or weight. Heavier regions such as in mountainous region (like the Himalayas) are sunken deeper into the mantle that other regions.  Every local region has its own local isostatic equilibrium.

Answer:

The correct option is Option C

i.e. Asthenosphere is denser than lithosphere.

Explanation:

Asthenosphere is the layer situated below the lithosphere.

Theory of isostasy says that the layers above the other layer must have lesser density. This has two explanations. Firstly, if its not hold, then the denser above layer would sink below the less denser bottom layer. Secondly, as we go inwards, the pressure increases. This leads to the lower layers have greater density. So, as Asthenosphere is situated below the lithosphere, it has higher density.

What is the purpose of equilibration ?

Answers

Answer:Equilibration buffer provides a condition to ensure that the target molecules interact effectively with the ligand and are retained by the affinity medium as all other molecules wash through the column.So the buffer pH and ionic strength at optimal condition are responsible for this ligand-molecule interaction.I hope this will help you.

What does reproductive isolation within a species cause?A. A decrease in genetic drift
B. A decrease in gene flow
C. An increase in gene flow
D. an increase in genetic drift

Answers

Reproductive isolation within a species causes is an increase in gene flow. The correct option is C.

What is reproductive isolation?

Reproduction isolation is a mechanism constituted by some factors like behavior, physiological process, etc. by which the species does not reproduce with other species.

Gene flow is the flow of genes in forward generations, and reproduction isolation increase the gene flow within species.

Thus, option C. An increase in gene flow is correct.

Why does ice stay at tge top of oceans instead of sinking to the bottom?

Answers

Answer: Ice is less dense than water.

-------

This is a property of water, one that is crucial for ocean life because the ice keeps the entire ocean from freezing in very cold temperatures. If the ocean froze over, much of the life would not be able to survive.

Ice is less dense than water because of the hydrogen bonds. In solid form, the hydrogen bonds orient themselves in such a way that the molecules are further apart, lowering the density of ice.
Because since the water is ocean water and it’s impure, the impure water freezes at the top while the “clean” water is at the bottom.
