Answer:

they grow, reproduce and die.

Explanation:

Microorganisms are a way of life that cannot be visualized without the aid of a microscope. These tiny beings can be found in the air, on the ground, and even in man. These tiny beings are not all the same, they can be very different in size and way of life. However, they all have in common a very simple structure and the impossibility of being seen without the use of a microscope. In addition, microorganisms can represent some characteristics of life, since as well as living beings in gereal they grow, reproduce and die.

A ________ reaction occurs when one compound reacts and is broken down into different elements or simpler compounds?
faust18 [17]

Answer: decomposition

Explanation:

1 . Combustion is a type of chemical reaction in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide ans water along with liberation of large amount of energy.

2. Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which a single reactant gives two or more than two products.

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2

3. Single replacement is a type of chemical reaction in which a more reactive element displaces the less reactive element from its slat solution.

4. Synthesis is a type of chemical reaction in which two or more than two reactants combine together to give a single product.

The base that will NOT combine with 2-deoxyribose to form a nucleic acid is _____.
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Uracil

Explanation:

The base that will NOT combine with 2-deoxyribose to form a nucleic acid is Uracil.

2-deoxyribose is a pentose sugar found in the DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid). It is devoid of oxygen in its 2' position. The bases found in DNA are Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine. Adenine, Guanine, and Cytosine are also found in RNA (Ribonucleic acid). Thymine is not present in RNA, it is only found in DNA. The base found in RNA is Uracil which in turn is not present in DNA. The five carbon sugar present in RNA is ribose which combines with Uracil.
