If a dna molecule were known to be 22% thymine (t), what would be the percentage of guanine (g) present?

Biology

Viktor [21]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

According to Erwin Chargff's rule, he stated that, adenine (a purine) always forms base pairs with thymine (a pyrimidine) and that guanine (a purine) always forms base pairs with cytosine (a pyrimidine). an adenine does not form base pairs with cytosine despite it being a pyrimidine.

thus the amount of adenine will always be equal to that of thymine while

the amount of guanine will always be equal to that of cytosine. Therefore, since we have 22% of adenine, the amount of thymine will also be 22% making a total of 44%. thus to find the amount of guanine and cytosine = 100-44= 56%.

the amount of guanine will thus be 56/2= 28%, since guanine and cytosine are of equal amount.

What is the sympathetic nervous system and what are some of the effects it has on the body?
Alex Ar [27]
Heart rate is controlled by the two branches of the autonomic (involuntary) nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) releases the hormones (catecholamines - epinephrine and norepinephrine) to accelerate the heart rate.

As glaciers retreat, they leave behind deposits of
pashok25 [27]

Glaciers leave behind deposits known as glacial till, which are unstratified, poorly-sorted sediments. Glaciers move a wide range of sedimentary particles from small clay-sized particles to large boulders. When the glacier either melts or retreats, these poorly-sorted sediments are deposited.

scZoUnD [109]
The answer is Surgical Contraceptive Methods e.g. Vasectomy(For males) and  Tubectomy(Females)<span>.

</span>Vasectomy:- In this method vas deference is cutted and tied so that sperms can't reach uthera.

Tubectomy:- In this method both fallopian tubes are cut and tied, so that no egg can head towards the site of reproduction(Cervix).

Note:- Both process are irreversible.

Your classmate has indicated that she wants to experiment with growing tomatoes hydroponically. She is planning to grow the plan
goblinko [34]

The hydroponic method involves growing the tomatoes in a nutrient solution which contains all of the essential elements.

The practise of growing plants without the need for soil is known as hydroponics. Flowers, herbs, and vegetables grown hydroponically are planted in inert growing material and are then given nutrient-rich solutions, oxygen, and water throughout the growing process. The use of this technique results in accelerated growth increased yields, and improved quality. When a plant is growing in soil, the roots of the plant are always looking for the nutrients it needs to survive in order to provide for the plant's needs. If the root system of a plant is provided with direct access to water and nutrients, the plant does not need to expend any energy in order to maintain its own life. It is possible to focus the energy that the plant's roots would have spent obtaining food and water toward the growth of the plant instead. As a direct consequence of this, the development of new leaves and the blossoming of fruits and flowers are both stimulated.
