Explain the base pairing rules of DNA. Provide an example of a strand of DNA with its complementary pair.

Biology
1 answer:
Darina [25.2K]3 years ago

Answer:

Two DNA strands are complementary in their nucleotide sequences. A purine base in one DNA strand always pairs with a pyrimidine base of another DNA strand.

Explanation:

The base-pairing rules state that a purine base always pairs with a pyrimidine base in DNA. This is why adenine base makes two hydrogen bonds with thymine and cytosine makes three hydrogen bonds with guanine. Due to this complementary base pairing, the nucleotide sequence of the DNA template is complementary to that of the newly formed DNA strand during the process of replication.

For example, a DNA template strand with sequence 5' AATTCCGG 3' would replicate into the daughter DNA strand with the sequence 3' TTAAGGCC 5'.

Why is Scientific argumentation important
Vladimir [108]

Scientific argumentation is important as it helps determine whether there is enough evidence to support a claim. So the correct option C.

<h3>What is a scientific argumemtation? </h3>

The kind of discussion between scientists where they disagree about scientific claims using arguments or claims based on their own knowledge is called scientific argumentation.

The ultimate aim of this practice is to improve the explanations and experimental designs of other scientists so that their claims are refined and without any errors.

This practice also determines whether the evidence presented to support a scientific claim is sufficient or not.

Therefore the correct option is C.

How would the amount of available energy differ in the trophic level of the mouse compared to the trophic level of the hawk?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
The answer would be B. The available energy would decrease from the mouse to the hawk. As the trophic level goes up the energy decreases because some of the energy is lost in the form of heat for every energy transfer. This energy being lost cannot be used by the organisms on the next level.

Finger [1]

Answer:

The ways through which the minerals form include the following order:

2. a warm solution flows through a crack in the rocks there

1. a solution forms from a liquid and dissolved substances

3. elements and compounds leave as the solution cools

4. elements and compounds crystallize

Explanation:

From the explanations above, it could be seen that a warm solution (most probably water)<em> flows through the cracks in the rocks leading to dissolution of substances to form liquid. When the liquid cools, the elements leaves and crystallize as compounds.</em>
