Answer:
Like DNA, RNA is made up of nucleotides. ... There are two differences that distinguish DNA from RNA: (a) RNA contains the sugar ribose, while DNA contains the slightly different sugar deoxyribose (a type of ribose that lacks one oxygen atom), and (b) RNA has the nucleobase uracil while DNA contains thymine.
Answer:
Upwelling
Explanation:
Upwelling is the process through which cold water gets to ascends from the bottom, providing nutrients to the superficial stratum.
Upwelling is an ascending displacement of marine currents. The phenomenon<em> can also occur in lakes or freshwater dams</em>.
Wind blowing over the coast can cause surface water to move out to sea. This motion is complemented by a slow ascension of cold water coming from the bottom forward to the coast. This currents movement is known as upwelling.
Upwelling water is extremely cold and rich in nutrients, which result from remineralization, by bacterial action, of organic matter that accumulates in the deepest stratum of the water body.
The contact of minerals with photosynthesizing organisms in superficial layers produces a significantly high primary productivity.
The answer is D. All of the above.. I just took the test (:
Answer:
D. deamination of cytosine to uracil
Explanation:
Hydrolytic DNA damage is usually a consequence of metabolic reactions and the most common example of this type of damage is hydrolysis of cytosine into uracil with the release of ammonia. This damage can be fixed by the cell's DNA repair system:removal of uracil by an enzyme uracil-DNA glycosylase and consequently generation of an abasic (AP) site. AP endonucleases recognise AP site and break a phosphodiester bond so that lesion can be replaced with another cytosine.
