Answer:

The correct answer is option B. "proto-oncogenes".

Explanation:

Tumor suppressor genes and proto-oncogenes are two types of genes that can cause the development of cancer cells if they suffer a mutation. The main difference between tumor suppressor genes and proto-oncogenes is the way they cause cancer. If tumor suppressor genes are inactivated they produce cancer cells, while if proto-oncogenes are activated is when they produce cancer cells.

If a DNA molecule is found to be composed of 35% thymine, what percentage of cytosine would be expected, and why?
-Dominant- [34]
We use Chargaff's rule to get the answer. [A] + [G] = [C]+ [T].    [A] + [G] + [C] + [T] = 100% Where is A is Adenine, G is Gaunine, T is Thymine and C is Cytosine. In DNA, Adenine always pairs with Thymine, and Guanine always pairs with Cytosine. Therefore if Thymine is 35%, then Adenine will also be 35% to make 70% in total. The remaining percentage will be 100% - 70% = 30%. The 30% will be shared equally among Cytosine and Guanine, at 15% each. Therefore Cytosine will be 15%

I need some help please!<br> Compare and contrast covalent bonds and ionic bonds.
Tanya [424]

Covalent bonds are formed when two atoms are able to <em>share</em> electrons.

Iroinic bonds are form when two atoms are <em> </em> electrons from each other to complete the bond. This results in a pair of ions.


<u>Covalent bonds:</u>

  • Have a definite shape.
  • Have a low melting point.
  • At room temperature they are in a liquid or gas.
  • They occur between two non-metals.

<u>Ionic bonds:</u>

  • Have no definite shape.
  • Have a high melting point.
  • At room temperature they are solid.
  • They occur between a metal and a nonmetal.

Rachael wants to test how sunlight impacts plant growth over time. She will add varying amounts of light to different sets of pl
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Independent variable: varying amounts of light

Dependent variable: plant growth

Explanation:

The variable, which are factors that can be altered, in an experiment can either be independent or dependent. An independent variable is one in which the experimenter manipulates or controls in order to bring about an outcome. For this experiment conducted by Rachel, the independent variable is the VARYING AMOUNT OF LIGHTS.

The dependent variable is the variable that responds to changes of the independent variable. In other words, the dependent variable is the outcome of manipulating the independent variable. Hence, the dependent variable is dependent on the independent variable. For Rachel's experiment, the PLANT GROWTH is the dependent variable because it is what responds to changes in amount of light (independent variable).
