Nucleus: A part of the cell containing hereditary information and is responsible for growth and reproduction; the "command center" of the cell.

Ribosome: A small particle in the cell that can make proteins.

Endoplasmic Reticulum: A cell structure that forms a maze of passageways in which proteins and other materials are carried from one part of the cell to another.

Golgi Apparatus: A cell structure that helps make and package materials to be transported out of the cell or for storage inside the cell.

Lysosome: Cell organelle filled with enzymes needed to break down certain materials in the cell, such as large food particles or old parts of the cell. May be found only in animal cells.

Vacuole: Saclike storage structure in the cell. can store water, nutrients, and even toxic substances.

Mitochondrion: An organelle containing enzymes responsible for producing energy. (Metabolism/respiration)

Chloroplast: An organelle found in the cells of plants and some other organisms that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy (photosynthesis).

Cell membrane: The thin, flexible barrier around a cell; controls what enters and leaves the cell.

Bacteria and other microbes can be used to "clean up" an oil spill by breaking down oil into carbon dioxide and water. Two sampl
aksik [14]

Answer:

For sample A, A=17.7 %, T=17.7 %, G=32.30%, C=32.30%

For sample B, A= 28.9%, T=28.9%, G= 21.10%, C= 21.10%

Explanation:

The composition of nitrogenous bases in DNA is calculated using the suggestions proposed by the results of the experiment performed by Erwin Chargaff.

He found that in a DNA sample the composition of purine to pyrimidine is 1:1. This indicates that the amount of purine equals pyrimidine. This can be presented as purines + pyrimidines= 100. Also, adenine binds thymine and cytosine binds guanine.

In the given question,  

<u>For sample A </u>

A= 17.7 %, Therefore, thymine will be = 17.7 %,

A+T= 35.40%

Now, G+C=100- 35.40%

G+C= 64.60%

content of G= 64.60/2= 32.30%

content of C= 32.30%

<u>For sample B </u>

T=28.9%, A will be= 28.9%

A+T= 57.80%

G+C=100-57.80%

G+C= 42.20%

Thus content of G will be= 42.20/2=21.10

content of C= 21.10%

Thus,  

For sample A, A=17.7 %, T=17.7 %, G=32.30%, C=32.30%

For sample B, A= 28.9%, T=28.9%, G= 21.10%, C= 21.10%
