An intron is a non-coding region of DNA. During alternative splicing, introns are removed.
- During eukaryotic transcription, a fragment of DNA (e.g., a gene) is used as a template to synthesize a complementary RNA sequence, usually a precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA).
- Subsequently, this pre-mRNA is processed by a mechanism called alternative splicing in order to produce a mature mRNA which is then used as template to synthesize a protein by a process called translation.
- During alternative splicing, non-coding regions of a gene called 'introns' are removed, where coding regions called 'exons' are spliced back together.
- If a cell transcribed and translated a gene’s intron by mistake, then additional amino acids would be inserted into the protein and therefore the resulting protein will be longer than normal.

Hypothesis: I believe an increase in temperature would lead to a decrease in surface tension.
Here's why: As the temperature increases, the molecular interaction between the liquids molecules becomes weaker because the hydrogen bond is the main factor for association between two molecules. It is a very weak bond to begin with, so when the temperature increases, it just further weakens it.
Answer:
The correct answer is - B. Woodchucks hibernate to survive the winter.
Explanation:
Many mammals such as groundhog or also known as woodchucks hibernate during winter in order to survive winter. Hibernation is the process or state of minimal activity during a particular time of the year characterized by low body temperature, slow heart rate, and low metabolic rate.
Woodchucks are become less active and remain in their burrow and seen very little during the winter and stay like this till late winter or early spring.

Answer:
1) option A - 5' TAG CTG GTA 3'
2) Option C - regulates which materials enter and leave the cell
3) option B - heredity information
Explanation:
For question 1) The complimentary strand will read in opposite direction 5' to 3', and will have each base replaced by its specific base pair:
Adenine (A) replaced by Thymine (T)
Guanine (G) replaced by Cytosine (C)
Thus, the complimentary strand of 3' ATC GAC CAT 5' read as 5' TAG CTG GTA 3'
For question 2)
Cell membrane is a flexible membrane made up of proteins and lipids, and is role is to
- select the materials absorbed by the cell
- protects the cell
For question 3)
DNA stores hereditary information along its sequence in form of genes, that are passed down to offsprings, and determine their traits/behavior
