Answer:

36 thymine and 24 guanine.

Explanation:

A DNA is a double helix structure in which each helix consists of complementary bases.

The complementary bases are -

a) Adenine and thymine

b) guanine and cytosine

Thus above two pairs of nucleotide bases pair with each other in equal amount .

Thus , if 36 bases of adenine has to form a pair with thymine there must be 36 bases of thymine

Like wise, if 24 bases of cytosine has to form a pair with guanine there must be 24 bases of guanine

Thus , the correct answer is option 36 thymine and 24 guanine.

Which of the following represents organisms in a food chain?
Lisa [10]

Answer: c seeds, mice, snakes

Explanation:

<u>a hawks, owls, eagles NO</u>

These animals all eat some form of meat, and they are on the top of all of their food chains. If you put these animals in a room with no food, there'd be no food chain, and they would got out at each other until there was one left, and there'd be no advatanges because 1. they can all fly and 2. they are all top consumers. The same thing goes for D except hyenas can't fly.

<u>b deer, rabbits, cows NO</u>

This is not a food chain because all of the animals are herbivore, so they only eats plants and will not eat each other.

<u>c seeds, mice, snakes YES</u>

The seeds are a producer which is to be eaten by a consumer (the mouse), and which are then eaten by the predator, the snake.

<u>d hyenas, vultures, crows NO</u>

<u />

Hope this helps, now you know the answer and how to do it. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great Valentines Day! :-)
