Answer:

e. Purines pair with pyrimidines

Explanation:

Diameter of DNA double helix is uniform through out the structure and it is 2 nm. This uniformity is due to the base pairing between a purine and a pyramidine. Purine base is made of two rings and pyramidine base has a single ring. All the bases are either derived from purine or from pyramidine structure and a purine always pairs with pyramidine. Two purines or two pyramidines can not pair with each other. So at any point along the DNA molecule, the sugar phosphate backbones always have three ring structure between them, hence the uniform diameter.

A plant seedling bends toward sunlight because _____.
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Light is sn important element in the growth of a plant.

Explanation:

Light is an important factor influencing plant growth. It is a common observation that plants grow towards light. Charles Darwin and his son Francis Darwin first observed that the coleoptiles of canary grass responded to unilateral illumination by growing towards the light source (phototropism). After a series of experiments, it was concluded that the tip of coleoptile was the site of transmittable influence that caused the bending of the entire coleoptile due to more growth on the dark side. That transmittable influence is now thought to be the phytohormone called auxin.
