Answer:
After a star becomes a red giant, what happens next depends on how massive the star is. If its mass is relatively small, gravity eventually leads to the star contracting to form a white dwarf. It fades and changes colour as it cools. The matter in a white dwarf is millions of times denser than the matter on Earth.

What specifically happens to the star depends entirely upon its size. If it's small for example it will contract into a white dwarf star.

A geneticist is trying to recreate a strand of DNA from a crime scene investigation. The strand of DNA recovered from the scene

algol13

Answer:

475

Explanation:

The strand is only made up of Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine. There will be the same number of Adenine as there are Thymine and the same number of Cytosine as there are Guanine.

We know there are 425 Thymine. This means there are also 425 Adenine. Therefore, you would subtract 850 (425x2) from 1800 to find the amount of Cytosine and Guanine left, which is 950.

Out of the 950, half will be Cytosine and half Guanine. 950/2 is 475.
