<h2>Answer:</h2>

A Nucleic acid consist of C, H, O, N, P i.e Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen and Phosphorus.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<u>Nucleic acids</u> are the biomolecules that are essential to all life form. The term nucleic acid is basically name for DNA and RNA. They are composed of nucleotides, which are the monomers made of three components

  1. A 5-carbon sugar(which contains C,H,O).
  2. A phosphate group (P) .
  3. A nitrogenous base(N).

If the sugar is a compound ribose sugar, then the polymer is RNA (ribonucleic acid); if the sugar is derived from ribose as deoxyribose sugar, then the polymer is DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid).

Result: A nucleic acid consists of C,H,O,N,P.

Drag each tile to the correct box.<br> Arrange the layers and faults from oldest to youngest.
kaheart [24]

The answers would be:

Layer D

Layer C

Layer B

Layer A

Layer E

Fault F

If you'd like to know why, here's more about the question:

The law of superpo sition states that the lower the layer, the older the rock is.

Looking at the layers alone, we can say that D is the oldest, and C would be next, so on and so forth.

The law of cross - cutt ing relationships, on the other hand, states that a geologic event, like a fault, is younger than the layer that it goes through.

So if we look at the figure given, the fault goes through all the layers, so we can say that it is younger than all the layers.

Meiosis reduces chromosome number and rearranges genetic information. Explain how the reduction and rearrangement are accomplish
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Meiosis is a form of cell division that occurs in the sex cells of organisms. It ensures the reduction of a diploid cell to an haploid cell to allow for the formation of a diploid zygote after fertilization (contribution of both parents haploid sex cells to give a diploid zygote). Thus, this process is very essential and important.

The reduction is accomplished by 2 divisions after the duplication of chromosomes

- first division: separation of homologous pairs of chromosomes (this reduces the total in half)

- second division: separation of sister chromatids of a chromosome.

The rearrangement in meiosis occurs by crossing over/genetic recombination.

This is the exchange of genetic material between homologous pairs of chromosome bringing about a rearrangement and genetic variation

An example of a chromosomal abnormality that arises as a result of defects in this process is the Down Syndrome which is caused by a nondisjunction of the chromosomes 21 pair in a sex cell.

This condition produces offsprings that have some characteristic facial features, short stature etc
