First  you  determine  the   total mass  of  the   strawberries used
Then  determine  the    mass  of  the   DNA  obtained  from  the  strawberries
percentage  mass  is  therefore  equal  to  mass  of  the  DNA  obtained  divided  by  total  mass  strawberries  multipy  by   a  100

<span>Weigh the strawberry and record its total weight. Cut off a small piece of the strawberry, weigh the piece, and record the piece's weight. Crush the weighed piece and treat it with a substrate that will suspend particles with negative charges. Filter the materials suspended in the substrate to isolate the strands of DNA. Use imaging tools to find the exact mass of the DNA. Divide that mass by the mass of the strawberry piece and multiply by 100% to get the percentage of the strawberry's mass that is DNA.</span>

"The first and second hominids were able to mate and produce offspring, but the first and third hominids could not." <span>Although that might be the case, it might also not. "More similar" needn't be 'similar enough' (disregarding the fact that all homonid specimens involved could happen to share the same sex). </span>

<span>"The first and second hominids shared the same geographic location, while the third was isolated." </span>

<span>That information would be revealed by the geographic location they came from. </span>

<span>"The first and second hominids most likely became extinct before the third hominid species." </span>

<span>Perhaps or perhaps not. As ancestral lineages can survive for longer than descendant lineages, it needn't apply. Still, I suppose the non-existent law of averages provides some sort of justification for the use of "Most likely". </span>

<span>"The first and second hominids have a more recent common ancestor than the first and third hominids." </span>

<span>Assuming these are all in the same neat lineage, then the most recent common ancestor of the first and second is also the most recent common ancestor of the first and the third.</span>

Answer:

The correct answer is A. An ionic compound

Explanation:

Sodium (metal) and chlorine (nonmetal) form an ionic bond to each other, forming the NaCl (sodium chloride) molecule. Sodium transfers an electron to chlorine, which is missing an electron to complete the octet rule.

viktelen [127]

Answer:

Of these 5 components, pepsin is the principal enzyme involved in digestion of protein. However, pepsin is released in its inactive form, or zymogen form, known as pepsinogen. By secreting pepsin in its inactive form, the stomach prevents digestion of protective proteins in the lining of the digestive tract.
