<span>The anatomical part of the eye that's responsible for the production of tears is the lacrimal gland.

The lacrimal gland is located in the upper lateral part of the orbit, just laterally and above each eye. It can be divided into two portions. The orbital portion is the one that has </span>interlobular ducts that will connect with those of the other portion - palpebral portion - collecting the produced tears and leading them to the eye's surface.

A single strand of DNA helix consists of 100 nitrogenous base pairs. On one strand, 36 of the bases are adenine and 24 are cytos

Hello!

For the complementary strand of DNA, 36 Thymine bases and 24 Guanine bases would complete the proper base pairing.

This is given by the concept of complementarity. A base in DNA has complementarity with only one other base. This complementarity is produced by hydrogen bond interactions.

For DNA, Adenine couples with Thymine and Cytosine couples with Guanine. So the 36 adenine bases will couple with 35 thymine bases, and so on.

Have a nice day!
