What is transcription in biology

Answers

Transcription is the first step of gene expression, in which a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA by the enzyme RNA polymerase. Both DNA and RNA are nucleic acids, which use base pairs of nucleotides as a complementary language.

Which best describes the age structure of a population with zero population growth?4 The majority of people are of prereproductive ages in a broad-base pyramid age structure diagram.

The age-structure diagram would be narrow at the bottom and top with a broader middle.

The age structure would be broad at the top in postreproductive ages and narrow downward in an inverted pyramid.

The age-structure diagram would be column-shaped with all age classes approximately equal.

Answer:

4

The majority of people are of pre-reproductive ages in a broad-base pyramid age structure diagram.

Explanation:

Disease is density-dependent because transmission occurs more easily when a population is large & crowded

Answer:

The age-structure diagram would be column-shaped with all age classes approximately equal.

Explanation:

Zero population growth is when a certain population (within a city or country) does not grow or decline. It is considered by others as a way to reach a stable environmental and economic status, thereby stabilize the country's growth.

Both geothermal energy and natural gas are renewable resources because they will never run out. D. Both geothermal energy and natural gas are nonrenewable resources because they will eventually run out.

A pond fills with organic matter during what?

Answers

A pond fills with organic matter during eutrophication.

Explanation:

Eutrophication takes place when an environment like aquatic environment in the form of lakes, ponds, sea etc is filled and enriched with organic matter and nutrients.

This is a huge concern for aquatic or marine organisms as the excess nutrients give rise to algal bloom due to production of huge amounts of phytoplanktons. These phytoplanktons will use and deplete the reserves of oxygen present in the water, leaving very little or none for other aquatic or marine organisms. This leads to destruction of such organisms which require oxygen to survive and finally their endangerment and extinction.

Natural eutrophication occurs due to gradual and slow sedimentation process occurring over very long periods of time.

Artificial or man-made eutrophication due to sedimentation of organic waste from solid wastes, industrial effluents increases the nutrient content like nitrogen in the water bodies resulting in rapid and mass eutrophication disturbing the entire ecological system.

A pond fills with organic matter when "pond ages from oligotrophic to mesotrophic".

Explanation:

The ponds are basically ranging from youngest to oldest in the given categories: Oligotrophic, Mesotrophic, or Eutrophic phases of live. The oligotrophic ponds are known as fresh or young waterbody. Oligotrophic bodies are low in nutrient quantities, like nitrogen and phosphorus, so donot encourage algae and aquatic plants productivity. The middle ages mesotrophic aquatic bodies are carrier of more nutrients and thus more readily the development of plants and algae take place than oligotrophics, but less than eutrophic production. As aging take place from oligotrophic to mesotrophic, the pond sides continue to slope less and the base of the pond starts to fill in with organic matter.
