18%.
If a cell contains 32% cytosine then it contains the same amount of its base pair, guanine. That means 64% of the cell is cytosine and guanine. The remaining 32% must be adenine and thymine, of which there should be equal amounts. Therefore to fine the amount of thymine divide 32 in half, which gives you 18%.

Answer:

is it 18%?

Explanation:

I don't think this is correct, but the four bases are adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine. So, if there is 32% cytosine then there has to be 32% guanine because that pairs up with cytosine. so percentages are out of 100, meaning that 100-64=36 which is how much percent we have left for the other two bases. 36/2=18 which would be the percent of adenine and thymine because those two pair up in dna.

How can cholesterol be carried in our hydrophilic bloodstream?
hoa [83]
Cholesterol is a lipid that is transported in the blood using different types of lipoproteins. There are three types of lipoproteins that are differentiated based on their density. Very low-density lipoprotein, low density protein and high density lipoprotein are the three most common types. These lipoproteins use the process of endocytosis to form vesicles that allow the transport of the hydrophobic lipids throughout the blood.

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

<em>The error that the student made was to place the containers for the different fruits in different areas around the school.</em>

In order to ensure that each contain receives the same treatment, they should have been placed in the same area around the school. Different areas around the school might have varied populations of fruit flies, hence, jeopardizing the result.

<u>The containers should have been subjected to the same conditions in order to ensure an unbiased outcome.</u>

The correct option is C.

Do you think the growing human population is a problem? Why?
Gwar [14]

Answer: Yes because the more the human population expands the more global warming and pollution there is. Right now in places like China you can see the sky because everyone is staying inside and not using their cars, if there were less people this wouldn't be a problem.
