Answer:

100 000

Explanation:

The average length of a base pair (bp) is 340 pm [340 × 10^(-12) m]

Length of DNA = No. of bp × length of bp

34 × 10^-6 m = n × 340 × 10^-12 m

n = (34 × 10^-6)/(340 × 10^-12) = 100 000

The DNA molecule contains 100 000 base pairs.

Explanation:

The <em>divalent cation </em>called <em>calcium</em> is needed to provide additional support to the bone matrix.

Calcium is considered one of the most <em>important components</em> in bone development. It helps in the formation as well as maintenance of bone. During the modeling and remodeling process of bones, calcium facilitates the formation of <em>semi-hard new tissues</em> which leads to the formation of new bone which is very hard.

Due to this reason, calcium is needed to create extra bone matrix support.
