In ocean waves, water particles move in circles and energy moves horizontally. Ocean waves are orbital progressive waves. The water molecules that make up the wave move in circles, or orbits, as the wave progresses. The ocean orbital waves get their start when wind blows on the open ocean, A gentle wind doesn't have much of an effect, but the stronger wind becomes the more it pushes against the water. It transfers energy to the water as it makes peaks and whitecaps in the water's surface.
Answer:
(B) calmodulin
Explanation:
Calcium in cells acts as second messenger molecule which regulates the very important physiological and cellular process of cell-like neurotransmission, cell migration, secretion, fertilization and many others.
Calcium acts as a messenger by binding to a calcium-binding protein called calmodulin. Calmodulin forms complex with 4 calcium ions through the side amino acids present in the structure of calmodulin.
Thus, calmodulin is the correct answer.
Background extinction refers to the normal extinction rate. These are species that go extinct simply because not all life can be sustained on Earth and some species simply cannot survive. Mass extinction is a widespread event that wipes out the majority (over 50%) of living plants and animals.
The correct answer is <u /><em>a</em><em>daption</em>. The particular environment in which a particular environment is exposed to gives it the characteristic or the ability to adapt. This is how a particular ecosystem works. It is the relationship of organisms within their environment that evolves through time in order for it to survive and propagate into more adapted kinds of species.
Happy to help!
