Answer:
Animals and plants need nitrogen to build amino acids in proteins, which are the building blocks of life. Unlike oxygen, nitrogen cannot be absorbed directly from the air by animals and plants.
Explanation:
Atomic #= 16
Mass=32.06
Neutrons=16 (subtract the atomic number by the mass(32-16=16))
Non metal
The part of a DNA molecule responsible for the direct coding of specific traits in an organism is the nucleotide sequence.
<h3>How is a DNA molecule structured?</h3>
The DNA molecule is the biological molecule that stores genetic information in living organisms.
The DNA molecule is made up of three major components in its structure:
- Five carbon sugar
- Nucleotide bases
- Phosphate group
The five carbon sugar is deoxyribose while the nucleotide bases are four in number as follows:
- Adenine
- Guanine
- Thymine
- Cytosine
These nucleotides are responsible for the direct coding of specific traits in an organism.
