<u>Type of protist:</u>

ANIMAL LIKE PROTIST:

  • PROTOZOA - They are commonly called as protozoa. Most protozoa consists of the single cell. They are animal like because they are heterotrophs and are capable of moving. Protozoa are not animals ,they are ancestors of the animals.

PLANT LIKE PROTIST:

  • ALGAE-They are large and diverse group . the main reason is that they contain chloroplasts and produce the food through photosynthesis.

FUNGUS LIKE PROTIST:

  • MOLDS -They are absorptive feeders on decaying organic matter. they resemble fungi and they reproduce with spores as fungi. They are quite different from fungi and more like other protists.

If one strand of DNA is CAGGTTACG, the opposite strand is
aliina [53]


The correct answer is a - GTCCAATGC

According to base pairing rules, in DNA G will always pair with C and A will always pair with T.

These letters represent nucleotides. Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids namely DNA and RNA.

A denotes the nucleotide called Adenine

C denotes the nucleotide called Cytosine

G denotes the nucleotide called  Guanine

T denotes the nucleotide called Thymine.

In RNA, there is slight difference in base pairing. Since RNA never has Thymine in its structure, the thymine has been replaced with Uracil.  Therefore in RNA,  Adenine will pair with Uracil.
