Sea floor sediment provide an invaluable key to past climate change. Finely varved sediments from areas of rapid deposition provide a high-resolution record of past climate variation, and volcanic ash layers contribute to the comprehensive study of climate change on relatively short timescales. Oceanographers like to say that we know more about the dark side of the Moon than we do about the oceans. That statement is doubly true of the seafloor. Although modern technology has allowed us to learn more about the seafloor, vast regions remain unexplored. Scuba divers can only dive to about 40 meters and they cannot stay down there for very long. Although this is good for researching the organisms and ecosystems very near a coast, most oceanic research requires accessing greater depths.
Most boreal forests are dominated by CONIFEROUS EVERGREEN TREES. The correct option is E. Boreal forests can be found in Canada, Russia and in Alaska in United states. Most trees in these forests are conifers with needle leaves and cones, examples include: black spruce, white spruce, balsam fir, jack pine, etc.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Crossing over is the process involved during meiosis of two chromosomes sharing genetic information with each other from each parent. This happens so the two daughter cells or sister chromatids have a variety of genetic information and so they are not completely identical. This leads to genetic diversity or variation.
Answer: The correct answer is B) Frameshift mutation.
The given mRNA sequence is GGU-GCU-CCU-AUU. When a nucleotide is added at the fourth location in the chain, it entirely changes the frame from the insertion of the nucleotide till the end of the gene sequence. This is called a frameshift mutation.
This is because after adding a nucleotide, a new frame is generated that will code for different amino acids and therefore a different protein will be synthesized.
On the contrary, chromosomal mutation is an abnormality in the chromosome ( in terms of number or structure) whereas substitution mutation is the one, which exchanges one base with another. Deletion of base also results in the frame-shift mutation.
I think it would be D a pure substance
