Sand paper is essentially a sheet of strong paper with grains of hard material glued to it. This rough hard layer of material makes sand paper "abrasive". This means that it is able to wear down or away another material by being rubbed against it. This process is known as abrasion.

The base of a glacier typically carries lots of sediment varying in size from clay particles, all the way up to boulders. These act like the grains of material attached to the paper in sand paper. As the glacier moves they rub or scrape against the underlying soil and bedrock, wearing it away in a similar manner (but on a much larger scale) to the way sand paper can be used

What Dampens activity of T and B cells?

Cytokines like TGF-beta and IL-10, as well as regulatory T cells (Tregs), can dampen the activity of T and B cells by suppressing their activation and proliferation. Additionally, immune checkpoint molecules like PD-1 and CTLA-4 can inhibit the function of T cells.


What would be the complimentary sequence of bases produced by a DNA strand with the bases ctgcca?

a-t-g-g-a-g-c-g-t-t-g-a A pairs with T and G pairs with C. It doesn't matter how long the strand is....it's so ******in' simple. A-T bonds are stronger than G-C bonds. A-t rich regions of DNA are hard and don't code for many functioning genes. G-C rich regions are where the active genes are found. A-t Regions stain dark blue-black w/ Geimsa, Leishman's or wright's stain etc... G-C regions do not. That's how banding patterns are achieved and chromosomes can be more accurately identified.

Base Sequence CGT ACG GCT AC WHAT WOULD BE the base sequence formed by transcription?

During transcription, the DNA sequence is converted into a complementary RNA sequence. For the given DNA base sequence CGT ACG GCT AC, the corresponding RNA sequence would be GCA UGC CGA UG. This involves replacing thymine (T) with uracil (U) in RNA.

Does a glacier have a specific life span?

A glacier's lifespan is determined by its mass balance, which depends on the balance between snow accumulation and ice loss through melting or calving. Factors like climate change can accelerate melting, leading to a shorter lifespan for the glacier. Some glaciers can exist for thousands of years if conditions are favorable for their growth and stability.
