Answer: The correct answer is -

B) a sugar found in DNA.

Explanation:

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the genetic material of living organisms that is passed from one generation to the next generation.

It is composed of small units called nucleotides, which contain three components -

deoxyribose sugar ( 5 carbon or pentose sugar that lacks - OH at 2'position in the pentose structure and contains hydrogen in its place), a nitrogenous base (which can be adenine, cytosine, thymine or guanine) and a phosphate group.

Thus,option B) is the right answer.

What is a shadow? Explain by giving an example.​
Len [333]

Answer:

Shadows are made by blocking light. Light rays travel from a source in straight lines. If an opaque (solid) object gets in the way, it stops light rays from traveling through it. This results in an area of darkness appearing behind the object. The dark area is called a shadow

Protein synthesis consumes four high-energy phosphate bonds per added amino acid. Transcription consumes two high energy phospha
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

30 protein molecules per mRNA molecule

Explanation:

In this problem, it is necessary to have into account that the transcriptional process requires six (6) phosphate bonds to synthesize one (1) codon (i.e, each three nucleotides), and also discards 95% more energy to make mRNA, it means 19 times this amount of energy >> 6 x 19 = 114 bonds. In consequence, transcription requires 120 phosphate bonds (6 + 114 = 120), while translation requires four (4) phosphate bonds per codon. From this deduction, it is possible to find the number of protein molecules synthesized with regard to the energy cost of the translation process and the transcriptional process >>> 120 bonds (transcription) /4 bonds (translation) = 30 protein molecules.

Which of the following is true of all greenhouse gases?
My name is Ann [436]
<span>Which of the following is true of all greenhouse gases?
</span>
C. THEY TRAP ENERGY IN THE ATMOSPHERE.

They are not naturally occurring. They are the result of human activity like using electricity, burning fuel, etc. 

They don't exist in fixed quantities and they don't reflect incoming radiation. The volume of greenhouse gases emitted depends on the activity done. It also does not stay in one place, it moves around and combines with other green house gases; trapping heat in the atmosphere and making the Earth warmer.
