Fat (lipid) molecules are made up mostly of long chains of carbon atoms.
For a fat molecule to be considered saturated, the carbon chain must have only single bonds between them.
Schematically, they look like -C-C-C-C- ...
If the carbon chain contains one or more double bonds, such as -C=C-C-C, then the given lipid molecule is unsaturated.
If a lipid molecule (fatty acid) contains exactly one double bond in its chain, and the rest are single bonds, it is then called monosaturated. It is a more healthy food source than saturated fats.
Saturated fat are generally solid at room temperatures. Examples include lard, butter, mostly from animal sources. However, coconut oil (solid at room temperatures as well) is a saturated fat.
Hello!
For the complementary strand of DNA, 36 Thymine bases and 24 Guanine bases would complete the proper base pairing.
This is given by the concept of complementarity. A base in DNA has complementarity with only one other base. This complementarity is produced by hydrogen bond interactions.
For DNA, Adenine couples with Thymine and Cytosine couples with Guanine. So the 36 adenine bases will couple with 35 thymine bases, and so on.
Have a nice day!
Absolute monarchy hold the supreme or absolute power, while in a constitutional monarchy the head of state is a hereditary or elected monarchy. in other words the king or queen of the absolute monarchy is a dictator.
Answer:
Because the offspring of a male and female are always going to be xx, xx, xy, or xy.
Explanation:
Remember that men have different reproductive chromesomes than women. Women have 2 x chromesomes(xx) while men have 1 x and 1 y(xy). These are given down to their offspring.
So we can write the this out in a punnet square as(link down below).
After you see the visual, you will find that the genotypes are xx, xx, xy, xy.
As I said above, women have sex chromesomes xx, while men have sex chromesomes xy. When you match the genotypes on the punnet square with the ones we know from men and women, we find that two of them match with men and two match with female.
So with this, we can conclude that 2/4 of offspring will always be male and 2 will be female. And as you well know 2/4 is 1/2 which is 50%.
Answer:
the number of chromosome sets found in the nucleus
