What are the base pairs in DNA and RNA?

Biology

Although very similar, the base pairs in DNA and RNA differ by one nitrogenous base. 

In DNA, the four nitrogenous bases are Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine. Adenine always bonds to thymine (in DNA), they are connected by two Hydrogen bonds. Cytosine and Guanine are always bonded together. They are connected by three Hydrogen bonds. 

However, in RNA, there is no thymine and instead, there is Uracil. That is the only nitrogenous base that is different. Cytosine still bonds to guanine, and adenine bonds to uracil. 

I hope that helps!

What's the difference between nitrification and dentification
Y_Kistochka [10]

Difference between nitrification and dentrification

Explanation:

Nitrification and denitrification are part of the nitrogen cycle

Nitrification is the process of conversion of ammonium to nitrate by nitrifying bacteria like Nitrobacter and Nitrosomonas

Denitrification is the process of reduction of nitrate to nitrogen gas by denitrifying bacteria like Pseudomonos, Lactobacillus etc.

Nitrifying bacteria are autotrophs and grows slowly and need aerobic condition.  Denitrifying bacteria are hetertrophs and grows rapidly and need anaerobic conditions.

Nitrification requires a pH of about 6.5 to 8.0; denitrification takes place at 7.0 to 8.5

Nitrification provides soluble nitrates readily available in the soil to be easily absorbed by the roots.

Denitrification processes are used in wastewater or effluent treatment plants.

How do clouds help protect our planet?​
Inessa [10]
Clouds can block light and heat from the Sun, making Earth's temperature cooler. You've probably noticed this kind of cooldown on a cloudy day. However, some heat from the Sun does get down to Earth. Clouds can trap that heat from the Sun.

Answer:

Hello!

The answer is D) Homeostasis

Explanation:

Homeostasis:

<em>The regulation of a cell or an animal's internal environment in response to fluctuations in the external environment is called homeostasis. </em>

Homeostasis is crucial to maintain an optimum environment for cell structures to work effectively.

In this case, the jackrabbiit's circulatory system is responding to fluctuating temperatures. In hot days, the body is at risk of heating up above optimum temperature which could hamper body functions. Therefore, the blood flow to the ears is increased to facilitate heat loss.

In cold temperatures, the blood flow to the ears is decreased to conserve heat for vital body organs. The blood flow is directed to the core of the body to protect the heart, lungs, liver and brain.
