An organism's genomic dna is analyzed and found to contain 22% thymine. what percentage of that organism's dna is guanine?

Biology

abruzzese [7]4 years ago
8 0
In an organism's genomic data, 100 percent is made up of adenine, cytosine, guanine and thymine. Adenine and thymine are complementary pairs in a DNA so they should have the same concentration in the DNA. This would also be the case for Cytosine and Guanine. We are given 22 percent of thymine so we also have 22% of adenine. This would leave us with only 100-22 = 78 percent for both guanine and cytosine. And since they are present in equal amounts, we simply divide the remaining percentage by two to determine the amount of each. Therefore, there would be 78 / 2 = 39 percent of guanine present in that certain DNA.

How do C4 plants fix carbons?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

C4 plants—including maize, sugarcane, and sorghum—avoid photorespiration by using another enzyme called PEP during the first step of carbon fixation. ... PEP fixes carbon dioxide into a four-carbon molecule, called malate, that is transported to the deeper bundle sheath cells that contain Rubisco.

Alja [10]

Answer:

a. Viral infections may lead to inflammation between the ribs (i.e., costochondritis)

b. Viral infection

c. Viral infection may lead to the influx of chemical mediators (cytokines), increased blood flow, and movement of plasma and white blood cells (leukocytes) from the blood into the injured site

Explanation:

Costochondritis is a painful condition caused by the inflammation of the cartilage that joins the ribs to the breastbone (this joint is known as the “costochondral joint”). Costochondritis is caused by inflammation of the costochondral joint, which may be triggered by multiple causes including, among others, viral/bacterial/fungal infections, exercise or strenuous activity, chest trauma, osteoarthritis, presence of tumors, etc. Acute inflammation is the immediate immune response of the body to harmful stimuli (e.g., viral infections), which is characterized by the increased movement of white blood cells (such as neutrophils and macrophages) that rapidly travel from the blood into the injured area. This plasma contains chemical mediators like pro-inflammatory cytokines which are secreted from immune cells (e.g., Th1 cells, CD4+ cells, macrophages) in order to promote inflammation.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

The answer to what People with central-body obesity are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes due to increased level of restinin and adipokines.

Explanation:

Type 2 diabetes, which is a disease that is due to resistance to insulin, lack of insulin or high blood sugar is associated with people with intra-abdominal fat because the fat start to partake in hormonal functions in the body which lead to the production of  adipokines cause insulin resistance. This is however evident in a high level obesity, which  increases serum resistin levels that also contribute to type 2 diabetes called diabetes mellitus.

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, it lacks options. The options are:

A. Cells and tissue

B. Cells and organ system

C. Organ system and organism

D. Tissue and organ system

The answer is A. Cells and tissue

Explanation:

A fractured/broken bone is capable of healing with time, although the process can be time-consuming. What occurs during the process is that blood clots develop around the area of the broken bone in order to protect the fracture and supply cells needed for the repair of the broken bone.

The aggregation of these cells form a tissue, which is the repair substance needed for the joining of the broken fragments. This repair substance is called CALLUS, which is initially made up of cartilage but later changes into bone tissue.

Hence, the most basic levels of organization involved when a bone heals are the CELLS and TISSUES.
