The table shows the diameters of the planets in our solar system. Assume that a basketball whose diameter is 25
centimeters represents the planet Jupiter. Find the scale (ratio) between Jupiter and the basketball. Then use this ratio to
find the scaled diameter of the other planets. Enter these numbers into the table. (Saturn has been done for you.) Finally,
choose a real-world spherical or nearly spherical object that matches the scaled diameter of each planet.
Saturn is shown as an example. To find what Saturn's size would be after adjusting it to scale, follow these steps. Let the
scaled diameter of Saturn be d centimeters. If Jupiter's diameter, 142,984 kilometers, is scaled to 25 centimeters, Saturn's
diameter of 120,536 kilometers will be scaled to about 21 centimeters:
142,984

120,536

Use this process to complete the table.

One function of the poly-a tail on eukaryotic mrna sequences is to the mrna be transported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. prokaryotic mrna also has a poly-a tail. choose the best explanation of the prokaryotic poly-a tail. a. prokaryotic poly-a tails are composed of a different molecular structure compared with eukaryotic poly-a tails. b. prokaryotic poly-a tails have the same functions as eukaryotic poly-a tails, because this process is highly conserved throughout different species. c. prokaryotic poly-a tails aren't important, because prokaryotes don't have nuclei. d. prokaryotic poly-a tails have other functions, because prokaryotes don't have nuclei.
