Approximately what percentage of the human genome is composed of repetitive sequences?

1 answer:

4 0

Approximately 50% of human genome is composed of repetitive sequences. It contains approximately 3 billion of these base pairs that reside with 23 pairs of chromosome within the nucleus or our cells or called nucleotides. Genes in the genomes of invertebrates such as Drosophila is not like the human genes because the human genes contain more and larger introns than the genes in the genomes. The human genes are larger than the genes in the genomes. The genome sequence is ~99.9% similar in individuals of all nationalities. Complete set of deoxyribonucleic acid of a single cell of an organism or sequence for humans (Homo sapiens) is called Genome. It includes both protein-coding deoxyribonucleic acid genes and noncoding deoxyribonucleic acid.

To find the graphical solution when adding vectors, you can draw a(n) ____ from the starting point to the ending point.

ehidna [41]

Answer:

arrow (which creates the resultant vector)

Explanation:

When you use the graphing technique when adding vectors, you can use the head to tail method to draw the vectors. And from the starting point or the tail of the first vector you drew, you will draw an arrow touching heads with the head of the last vector drawn.

With that, you can use a ruler to measure the resultant vector's magnitude, and use a protractor to measure it's direction.

Below is an example:

Let:

V1 = Vector 1

V2 = Vector 2

R - resultant vector.

Explain why photosynthesis considered to be an anabolic, endergonic process.

mixas84 [53]

<span>photosynthesis is considered to be anabolic, because it is a process of growth, anabolic being the term used coming from anabolism which is synthesis of proteins or growth, and endergonic being because it is photosynthesis is a process in which heat or energy is absorbed , this being from the sun. Endergonic process are growth processes and this is why photosynthesis is considered to be anabolic and endergonic.</span>
