The purpose of transcription is to create
A. a sequence of RNA bases that complements a sequence of DNA bases.
B. a sequence of DNA bases that duplicates a sequence of RNA bases.
С. a sequence of RNA bases that breaks down a sequence of DNA bases.
D. a sequence of DNA bases that deletes a sequence of RNA bases.
Answer:
B. a sequence of DNA bases that duplicates a sequence of RNA bases.
Explanation:
Transcription is the first step in gene expression. It involves copying a gene's DNA sequence to make an RNA molecule.

What process can change all three rock types in a new metamorphic rock?
Answer:
The three main rock types are igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary. The three processes that change one rock to another are crystallization, metamorphism, and erosion and sedimentation. Any rock can transform into any other rock by passing through one or more of these processes. This creates the rock cycle.

Explain the flaw in Bill's rationale in the following scenario:
Bill, a horse breeder, believes that studying heritability is a waste of time. He thinks that kind of technical study should be left to scientists, not farmers.
He could use this knowledge to help breed his horses to the best that they can be.
What is heritability ?The degree to which genetic variations among persons may adequately explain the variations in their attributes is known as heritability. Characteristics like height, eye color, and IQ are examples of traits, as are illnesses like schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorder.
Heritability, which is denoted by the statistic h2 in science, describes the proportion of a trait's variation that can be attributable to genetic variation.
An estimation of a trait's heritability is particular to one population in a particular setting, and it might alter over time as conditions change.
Estimates of heritability range from 0 to 1. A heritability close to zero means that environmental factors, with very little influence from genetics, account for almost all of the variation in a trait among individuals.
Therefore, He could use this knowledge to help breed his horses to the best that they can be.

What insect/animal improves the fertility of soil by breaking down once-living matter and aerating soil?
Answer:
please give me brainlist and follow
Explanation:
Earthworms pass both soil and organic matter through their guts, in the process aerating the soil, breaking up the litter of organic material on its surface, and moving material vertically from the surface to the subsoil.
explain how thyroxine production is an example of homeostasis
Explanation:
The production and release of thyroid hormones, thyroxine and triiodothyronine, is controlled by a feedback loop system that involves the hypothalamus in the brain and the pituitary and thyroid glands. ... This system allows the body to maintain a constant level of thyroid hormones in the body.

(2 pts) Describe the process in which an ecosystem moves from a pioneer species to a climax community.
Answer:
As an ecological community develops, it goes through a series of stages called ecological succession. The enduring community, in which specific and environmental changes are minimized, is called the climax community.
Explanation:
Succession is a process that generally begins after a significant alteration or extinction of an existing community. During succession, a community begins from a point where pioneer species colonize a new area. Pioneer species actively work to provide nutrients to soils and thus allow life to begin to form in them.During this time, there is widespread growth of these fast-growing species. If this new development is in an area that has never been settled before, this is called primary succession. If colonization occurs where an area has been so severely disturbed that the original community no longer exists, this is called secondary succession. Primary succession begins with the establishment of pioneer species such as lichens and mosses. These change the physico-chemical characteristics of the substrate. Later, small plants such as grasses, shrubs and then trees arrive, until culminating in a climax community dominated by certain species. The equilibrium that characterizes the climax community can be altered by climatic, ecological and evolutionary factors.

5. The theory of common descent states that all modern organisms
*
A. Can change in response to environmental change
B. Are descended from a single ancestral species
C. Can be arranged in a linear order from "Least Evolved" to “Most Evolved”
D. Have not changed over time
Answer:
B
Explanation:
All living beings are in fact descendants of a unique ancestor commonly referred to as the last universal common ancestor (LUCA) of all life on Earth, according to modern evolutionary biology. Common descent is an effect of speciation, in which multiple species derive from a single ancestral population.

Which describes organisms going into deep sleep for the winter?
A. Birds migrating
B. Animals hibernating
C. Trees losing their leaves
D. Insects during metamorphosis
Answer:
Animals hibernating is the answer
Explanation:
Hiberntion is when animals sleep for months in the cold winter
When animals hibernate, it is usually in the winter. They store food with them for when they wake up.
An example is squirrels which store acorns near them when they go to hibernate
Birds migrating is usually to lay eggs
Trees losing leaves is usually so that they can store their precious nutrients like glucose
Insects during metamorphosis is when they change form, eg from a caterpillar to a butterfly
