Which is true of both DNA and RNA

Biology
1 answer:
maxonik [38]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C. They contain sugars, phosphate, and nitrogenous bases

Explanation:

A. is wrong because only RNA is made up of single strands of nucleotides, while DNA is a double-stranded helix.

B. is wrong because DNA and RNA are examples of nucleic acids, not carbohydrates

D. is wrong because only RNA contains uracil, while DNA has thymine instead of uracil.

C. is correct because both DNA and RNA have sugar-phosphate backbones and nitrogenous bases. The difference between RNA and DNA is seen in their names--deoxyribo nucleic acid (DNA) vs. ribo nucleic acid (RNA). Ribose is a type of sugar, the same as found in RNA, while deoxyribose (in DNA) is the same except for not having an oxygen atom on the 2' Carbon (de-oxy = without oxygen).

which organelle produces sugars while releasing oxygen, and in which cell could it be found? a the golgi apparatus, which can be
spayn [35]

Answer:

The correct answer would be d chloroplasts, which can be found in leaf cells of trees.

Chloroplasts are double-membrane cell organelle usually present in leaf cells of a plant.

They are the site of photosynthesis in plants by which plants convert solar energy into sugars. Oxygen is released as the byproduct of the process.

Light reaction of the photosynthesis takes place in the thylakoid membrane. It produces ATP and NADPH and releases oxygen.

Dark reaction takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast in which ATP and NADPH are used to fix carbon (obtained from carbon dioxide) into sugars (glucose).

The overall reaction is:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + solar energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

almond37 [142]
Chronic kidney disease is when your kidney is not functioning properly. Kidneys contain filters called nephrons. It is the their job to filter the blood of waste products and extra fluid. As a result, your body flushes the waste out as urine. The most common causes of chronic kidney disease are diabetes and high blood pressure. If your blood vessels contain a high concentration of sugar and cholesterol, the nephrons would take the exhaustive work. In the long run, if you keep eating unhealthy food, the kidney could no longer catch up. Thus, resulting to chronic kidney disease.
