Answer: Option A) Double-stranded DNA

Explanation:

First, the presence of thymine infers that the genome is DNA.

Then, to determine whether it is single or double stranded, we check if the sum of all nitrogenous bases is equal to 100%

A + C + G + T = 100%

28% + 35% + 20% + 17% = 100%

Since all bases makes 100%, we can conclude that the genome is a double stranded DNA

Sophie [7]

Answer:

The correct statements are C The pH is accurate but the solution will have excess salt. D The pH is accurate but the concentration of Tris will be incorrect

Explanation:

As the pH is finally maintained at 7 the pH for the buffer solution will be accurate but excess salt will be produced due to use of Both NaOH and HCl to make up the to 7.

As more volume of water is required at final step to make up the volume the concentration of tris will be incorrect.

Answer:

  1. Respiratory system
  2. Nervous system
  3. Circulatory system
  4. Integumentary system
  5. Endocrine system

Explanation:

During excessive hard work or sports, the respiratory system acts to provide sufficient oxygen for energy supply (ATP) - a process takes place in mitochondria. At the very beginning, the respiratory system is active. If the person doesn't intake sufficient water, he will feel tired because of heavy breathing that increases body temperature and affects metabolic reactions. A supply of water would help decrease the respiration need and so support other systems.

The nervous system (hypothalamus) regulates the body temperature which is necessary for metabolic reactions taking place within the body, i.e. homeostasis. During and after exercise, the water intake was not sufficient, this means that the hypothalamus would work to maintain the temperature as well as other metabolic mechanisms. In the case of less water intake, the nervous system would be in stress.

The circulatory system acts to transport blood and oxygen to all parts of the body. During sports activities, the oxygen supply would be high to maintain energy supply. This takes place with the combined action of the circulatory system and respiratory system. For optimal functioning, the circulatory system needs fluids (water) intake because sufficient water is already lost during sports.

The integumentary system is the system that directly protects the body from damages including dehydration. Therefore, in this case, it will be highly active.

The endocrine system consists of glands that produce hormones to control body metabolism. The body metabolism, as mentioned before, is driven through water availability. The reduced water in the body would also put the endocrine system under pressure.
