Chargaff's rule states that A (adenine) only bonds with T (thymine) and C (cytosine) only bonds with G (guanine) in a DNA strand. Since DNA replication is semi-conservative, this complementary base pairing allows two of the DNA molecules to be identical to each other as they have the same base sequence. The new strands made are complementary to their template strands and also identical to the other template. Complementary base pairing is important in the conservation of the base sequence of DNA because adenine always pairs with thymine, while guanine pairs up with cytosine. All in all, complementary base pairing has a huge role in the conservation of the base sequence of DNA.

The table below identifies three classes of genes that affect the cell cycle.
Doss [256]
The correct option is this: PROTO ONCOGENES BECOMES ONCOGENES.
Proto oncogenes genes are those genes that regulate the process of normal cell division in the living system. These cells starts cell division when necessary and terminate the cell division when the necessary cells have been formed. When these genes lose the power to regulate cell division, the cells continue to divide indefinitely without stopping and this leads to a medical condition called cancer. At this stage, the proto oncogenes have been turned into oncogenes, which are genes that caused uncontrolled cell cycle divisions.

A great deal of the Blue Ridge was eroded. The eroded rock eventually finally settled in Virginia’s coastal plain. What process
Lisa [10]
The process is called Erosion. During the Erosion, materials from one place such as soil and rocks will be transport to another location. The process is also contrast to the process called deposition which responsible for the control of the arrival of the materials to a new place like the rocks from Blue ridge Mountain to Virginia's Coast.

2. What observation did John Hartë make about tiger salamanders?
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

John Hartë made an observation that a steady decrease in the tiger salamander (Ambystoma tigrinum nebulosum) population was caused due to the increased acidity in ponds. He had found that melting snow can release a pulse of acidity that damages salamander eggs.
