If the results show that 21% of the nucleotides contain adenine, then the cytosine fraction in vivo is 29% and the thymine fraction is also 21% (options A and C).

<h3>Define double helix model of DNA?</h3>
  1. DNA is a double helix molecule made up of two long strands of nucleotides.
  2. There are four types of nucleotides in DNA, each containing a different nitrogenous base: adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine.
  3. Adenine always pairs with thymine and guanine pairs with cytosine, according to the base-pairing rules.
  4. As a result, the percentage of adenine equals the percentage of thymine, and the remaining percentage equals guanine + cytosine (29 + 29 = 58 >> 58 + 21 + 21 = 100).
  5. Therefore, if the results show that 21% of the nucleotides contain adenine, then the percentage of cytosine in vivo is 29% and the percentage of thymine is also 21%

Answer:

Structure: unicellular organisms (single-celled), no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles, genetic material usually composed of a single circular bacterial chromosome coiled up in a region of the cytoplasm

Function: metabolic functions are carried out in the bacterial cytoplasm

Replication: generally asexual (binary fission)

Explanation:

Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms, i.e., unicellular organisms that do not have a cell nucleus nor any membrane-bound organelles . Generally, the genetic material is composed of a single DNA circular molecule (bacterial chromosome), which is localized in a specific region of the cytoplasm (nucleoid region). Prokaryotic cells are usually smaller than eukaryotic cells (0.1 - 5 μm in size). In bacteria, metabolic functions (i.e., growth and reproduction) occur in the cytoplasm. The most important process of reproduction in bacteria is binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction where a single bacterial cell divides into two. Bacteria can also exchange genetic material by sexual reproduction mechanisms (i.e., conjugation, transformation and transduction). The main strategy to prevent outbreaks caused by bacteria is to know the conditions where they grow and reproduce. For example, <em>Salmonella</em> is a genus of infectious bacteria that may cause an outbreak. <em>Salmonella</em> infection may be prevented by eliminating conditions where they can multiply. Measures to prevent <em>Salmonella</em> outbreaks include cook food thoroughly (do not eat raw eggs or raw beef), refrigerate foods, wash hands, etc.

I think that the tectonic plates would shift towards each other. This creates what is known as a convergent boundary. If the plates moved away, then this would be known as a divergent boundary. If it is wrong, I am terribly sorry. I did this question on a quiz before, and I think I got it right. It was in 8th grade though, so... two years ago.
