Video: DNA: Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, Thymine & Complementary Base Pairing. Learn the language of nucleotides as we look at the nitrogenous bases adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine.
The spread of roots around a plant is usually greater than the depth of the roots is a completely false statement. It totally depends on the type of plant in regards to the type of root it will have. Normally there are two kinds of roots and they are taproot and fibrous roots. In case of taproots the main root goes downwards and smaller roots branches out of it. In case of taproots, it is true that the spread of roots is smaller than the depth of the roots. In case of fibrous roots, the spread of roots is greater than that of the depth of the roots. A wig tree is an example of a plant having taproot. in the wig tree the root can go to a depth of around 120 meters.
<h2>Rhizoids absorb water and nutrients from the surrounding soil.
</h2>
Explanation:
Rhizoids are primitive root like structure in lower plants like bryophytes and sin fungi. Rhizoids are usually unicellular. However many plants exhibit multicellularity. Rhizoids functions as the roots in these plant,by absorbing water and nutrient from the surrounding soil. They may contain enzymes which helps in extracellular digestion in orgsnidm which have saprotrophic mode of nutrition.Rhizoids provide a little anchorage to the substratum.
Water accounts for most of a cell's mass!
MRNA is a short lived form of genetic information that is used in transcribing the genetic information, hence it is not very useful for analysis since it is fragile and wrong transcriptions happen quite often. SNPs (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) are a form of genetic mutation; they are more frequent than most other mutations since a single transription error may lead to this. While SNPs are important in genetic analysis and getting information about causes of disease, they are not very helpful in determining your maternal lineage. Similarly, while nuclear DNA contains a large portion of our genetic information, half of it is from our fathers and half from our mothers, so the analysis becomes hazy very soon. Mitochondrial DNA instead is directly passed down from mother to her offspring since the embryo contains only the mitochondria of the ovary. Thus, studying differences between mitochondrial DNA, one can gain information about his maternal lineage and go back to Mitochondrial Eve, the person from which all living persons have gotten their mitochondria from. Thus, the correct answer is c.
