Answer:

A. 50, 88, 145, 227

Explanation:

The correct option would be option A.

<u>When something grows exponentially, it means the growth increased at a high rate. More specifically, each rate of increase results in more or less doubling of the preceding rate. For example, if the current value of growth rate is 2 for a substance that is growing exponentially, the next growth rates will be 4, 8, 16, etc.</u>

<em>In this particular illustration, the only option that best fit into an exponential system is option A in which the growth rate more or less doubles each time from 50 to 88, from 88 to 145, and then from 145 to 227.</em>

What is the complimentary strand to AGG-CTA_AAC
Virty [35]

Answer: The complementary strand is TCC- GAT - TTG

Explanation: During DNA replication, each strand of the DNA serves as a template for the synthesis of a new strand, thereby producing two new DNA molecules, each with one new strand and one old strand. A template is a DNA strand that would allow nucleotide molecules to be lined up in a specific order and be joined to create another DNA with a unique sequence. This results in creation of a double stranded DNA in which each strand is complementary to the other. In nucleotide base pairing, Guanine pairs with Cytosine while Thymine pairs with Adenine.

G = C while T = A.

The seeds of leguminous plants are a source of proteins. Nitrogen - fixing bacteria live in the roots of such plants. Do you thi
enyata [817]
Yes, Only bacteria can convert molecular nitrogen, into a form which can be utilized by other living beings such as plants. The nitrogen fixed by the bacteria, by this process, become available to the plants, which uptakes it, for their own growth, and is also accumulated in their seeds. Further, leguminous plants have nitrogen-fixing bacteria associated with them in synergy. They provide the plant with additional nitrogen, and in exchange obtain nutrients from the plant, for their growth and division.
