Option A, C and D

use the base pairing rules to write the sequence that would pair with the following sequence: Agatcct
lukranit [14]

Answer:

TCTAGGA

Explanation:

The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecule consists of two single-strands, which are composed of four different types of nucleotide bases: Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Guanine (G) and Cytosine (C). These two DNA strands run in an anti-parallel direction to each other. According to the base-pairing rules, Adenine always pairs with Thymine, while Guanine always pairs with Cytosine. In DNA, Thymine and Adenine form two hydrogen bonds between them, while Guanine and Cytosine form three hydrogen bonds between them.

What protects food from entering the larynx?
Paul [167]
The epiglottis is a flap in the back of your tongue that prevents food from entering the larynx. When your mouth is closed, the epiglottis is in place and blocks the larynx opening. If your mouth is open, the flap lifts and the larynx is no longer blocked so you can breathe. This is why it's important to not chew with your mouth open... if you do, then food can go down the larynx by mistake.
