What base in dna pairs with adenine

Biology
2 answers:
fgiga [73]3 years ago

Answer:

Thymine

Explanation:

Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) are formed by the union of nucleotides, each of which in turn consists of phosphate, pentose and nitrogenous base.

Nitrogenous bases are classified as purine and pyrimidine as follows:

  • Purine bases: Adenine (A) and Guanine (G)
  • Pyrimidine bases: Cytosine (C), Thymine (T) and Uracilla (U)

In both DNA and RNA, the Guanine nitrogen base (G) binds exclusively to cytosine (C). The difference occurs in relation to the other bases: whereas in DNA adenine (A) binds only to thymine (T), in RNA adenine (A) will always be linked to the nitrogenous base Uracila (U).

adenine can form two hydrogen bonds with thymine. adenine-thymine and guanine-cytosine in DNA, and  adenine-uracil and guanine-cytosine in RNA.

The length of linker DNA segments varies somewhat among organisms. The length of the linker DNA in sea urchin is 110 base pairs.
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

362 nucleosomes

Explanation:

A nucleosome repeat is made up of the DNA (146 bp) wrapped around the core nucleosome particle and the linker DNA (110 bp as in this situation). We can conclude that, every repeat stands for 256 (146 + 110) base pairs of DNA.

We are given the length of the entire region to be 92,672 bp long,

To determine the number of nucleosomes to organize the region into the 10nm fiber structure

Let,

Number of nucleosomes =

the length of the entire region

------------------- -----

base pairs of DNA.

= 92,672

-------

256

= 362 nucleosomes

Therefore, 362 nucleosomes is needed to structure the region into the 10nm fiber structure.
