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

When studying heredity what is the relationship of DNA bases and traits?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Heredity is the study of how traits are passed from parents to offsprings through reproduction. Off springs cells acquire the genetic information from their parents. DNA bases (A,G,C,T) determine the nucleotides that will constitute the mRNA, the mRNA nucleotides determines the codons which codes for certain amino acids. The amino acids join during translation and form peptides that then join to form proteins. These proteins include enzymes that catalyses chemical reactions for example pigments of skin and hair color are produced by enzymes. Hence, proteins highly determine the traits acquired by a given organisms and therefore, variation in a gene in terms of the bases greatly affect the proteins formed hence influencing the traits of the organisms.
