Why would bourses and mountain goats have hooves

1 answer:

6 0

Think of it like this. Horses do a LOT of galloping, which is hard on the feet! Hooves are a physical ADAPTATION, so that the horses won't experience pain on their journeys. They're hard, so that the horses don't feel the ground nearly as much. Now, mountain goats travel over rough terrain, with sharp rocks and steep inclines. Again, it's really easy for them to get hurt strutting around the mountains, so they evolved hard hooves to protect their feet.

Analyze the data about nitrogenous base content of DNA from various species. Percentages of Bases in Five Organisms Source of DN

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

When analyzing data on the nitrogenous base content of the DNA of various species, the claims are supported by the data:

In any one species, the amount of adenine closely approximates that of thymine.
In any one species, the amount of guanine closely approximates that of cytosine.
The amounts of A, T, G, and C in DNA varies from species to species.

(options A, B and D)

Explanation:

Organizing the data has to:

Source of DNA A T G C

Streptococcus 29.8 31.6 20.5 18.0

Yeast 31.3 32.9 18.7 17.1

Herring 27.8 27.5 22.2 22.6

Human 30.9 29.4 19.9 19.8

E. Coli 24.7 23.6 26.0 25.7

DNA is the molecule that contains the genetic information of each species, formed by sequences of nitrogenous bases Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine.

Since Adenine and Thymine -as well as Cytosine and Guanina- are complementary, the percentage of them will be very similar in each DNA molecule.

The genetic information -which determines the physical and functional characteristics of each organism- is encoded in the DNA and is different for each species, so the percentages of nitrogenous bases vary from species to species.

What creates lava and how does lava become molded

VLD [36.1K]

Lava is molten rock. It is created deep beneath Earth's surface (often 100 miles or more underground), where temperatures get hot enough to melt rock. Scientists call this molten rock magma when it's underground.Lava is molten rock.
