The higher the GC content of a DNA, the higher the strength of the interchain interactions, and the higher the melting temperature.

DNA is Deoxyribonucleic Acid. It is the genetic material in maximum of the organisms. The DNA is a polymer made from nucleotides (sugar, nitrogenous bases and phosphate group). It is composed of two strands of phosphate and sugar backbone in an antiparallel direction. The nitrogenous bases present in DNA are Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Guanine (G) and Cytosine (C).

GC content refers to the total amount of Guanine and Cytosine present in the DNA. Since there exists a triple bond between G and C, more percentage of them provides strength to DNA. That is why high GC content denotes high melting temperature of DNA.

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Dementia

Explanation:

Dementia is a condition that involves impaired mental ability and memory which is common among older adults. This condition, which is a major contributor to disability and placement of older adults in nursing homes, can be as a result of several factors of which nutrition has a major role to play. Metabolic and endocrine problem that results to the inability of the body system to regulate nutrients such as calcium and vitamin B-12, are some of the factors that triggers dementia in older adults. Also, nutritional deficiencies such as dehydration, inadequate intake of vitamin B-1, vitamins B-6, copper,vitamin E, and vitamin B-12 increases the chances of developing dementia in older adults.

Research shows that low levels of vitamin D can be linked to increased risk of developing dementia, and as such, supplements such as B-complex vitamin, vitamin C, and vitamin D is usually recommended for the prevention of dementia, especially when they are deficient in the diets taken.
