The chemical stockroom also contains a solution labeled unknown. This solution contains a 0.10M solution of a "synthetic base".

Synthetic bases are designed and used by biologists to manipulate DNA. Which base, A, C, T or G, is this unknown synthetic base most like, in terms of its binding characteristics?

Answer:

AT indicates A and T bound together, AC indicates A and C bound together, etc.

Explanation:

In the '30s and '40s, biologists knew that the agent for heredity was in thread-like chromosomes, made of the molecule DNA. They also knew that DNA was made of four bases, (A)denine, (G)uanine, (C)ytosine, and (T)hymine. The race was on to be first to determine how they fit together, and how they carried hereditary information.

DNA

In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick unraveled the mystery, by showing that DNA had the double-helix structure shown to the left. The information is stored as the sequence of bases: G, C, A, and T, on the strand of DNA running up one side of the double helix. On the opposing strand, the sequence is mirrored such that a C is paired with every G, and an A is paired with every T. This pairing is essential to the ability of DNA to replicate and to send its information out into the cell to direct protein synthesis.

You will be provided with stock solutions of all four bases. These are labeled dAMP for A, dCMP for C, dGMP for G, and dTMP for T to reflect the fact that these bases are only soluble as single bases in their d-MonoPhosphate form. Each of these solutions has a concentration of 0.10M. In the following, feel free to combine these solutions in any way you see fit. Note that the "Solution Info" window shows the concentrations of all chemical species in the currently-selected container. In this window, AT indicates A and T bound together, AC indicates A and C bound together, etc.

what function does the limb serve in each animal? How are the limb bones of the four animals similar? Based on these similaritie
e-lub [12.9K]
The function of the limb is to help them get around and move. They might be similar in the way they’re structured? I don’t have a picture so I can’t tell. And you can assume that at one point these four animals all shared a common ancestor. Hope I helped!

Why are the two types of variables used in data tables named independent and dependent variables?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
Because the Independent Variable is what you change to get a different change, and that is what the Dependent Variable is.

Answer:

As the sinking plate moves deeper into the mantle, fluids are released from the rock causing the overlying mantle to partially melt. The new magma (molten rock) rises and may erupt violently to form volcanoes, often building arcs of islands along the convergent boundary.

!!PLEASE HELP RN!! what are 3 similarities that dominant and recessive alleles have?
muminat

Answer:

When an allele is dominant, the characteristic it is connected to will be expressed in an individual. When an allele is recessive, the characteristic it is connected to is less likely to be expressed. Recessive traits only manifest when both alleles are recessive in an individual.
