Explanation:

These questions are related to the extraction of DNA using detergents and ethanol.

1. Consistency and texture- the extracted DNA is white, spongy and moist or slime in nature.

2. Salt is used during the extraction process as the DNA is negatively charged molecule and to neutralize the negative charge which will allow the formation of precipitate.

3. The DNA is soluble in aqueous solution as the DNA is a negatively charged molecule therefore the negative charge makes it a polar molecule and it can form the interactions in the aqueous solution.

4. RNA could be present in the aqueous solution along with the DNA as both are the nucleic acid.

5. The base-pairing rule was suggested by the Chargaff who proposed that Adenine binds thymine and guanine binds cytosine.

5. The binding of adenine to thymine involves two hydrogen bonds and between guanine to cytosine involves three hydrogen bonds.

A mutation results in the production of much less dna ligase than normal. what would be a likely consequence?
ss7ja [257]
DNA ligase is the enzyme that repair irregularities and breaks in the back bone of double stranded DNA. The enzyme function by sealing the repair in the DNA, it seals recombination fragments and it connects okazaki fragments during replication of DNA. 
If a mutation reduce the amount of ligase, all the functions of the ligase enzyme listed above will be affected negatively.

A model is a representation, substitute, or simplification of what is being studied, but it is also similar to what it represent
Georgia [21]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is b. the model is insufficiently labeled</em>

Explanation:

Models showing certain cycles should clearly show the reactants and the products being formed. They should be able to depict the various changes in the reactants which lead to the formation of the products.

The diagram shown in the picture is a poor depiction for the process of photosynthesis as well as cellular respiration. I does not tell us the products being formed. Like oxygen gas is released during photosynthesis but it is just labelled as gas in the diagram. The sugar being formed is also not named which is glucose.
