Answer:

250 H bonds

Explanation:

The Chargaff rule states that a  DNA molecule has the following features-

1. Purine binds pyrimidines through hydrogen bond

2. The sum of purine and pyrimidine is equal to 1.

3. Adenine binds thymine always (involve two H bonds)

4. Guanine binds cytosine (involves three H bonds)

In the given question,

guanine bases- 50, therefore, cytosine bases will be 50  

H bond will be 50 x 3 = 150 bonds

Similarly,  

Adenine bases will be 50 equal thymine which will also be 50

double H bond will be - 50 x 2= 100  

Total H bond will be- 250 H bonds.

Thus, 250 H bonds are the correct answer.

When you compress the heart in this demonstration, why does the water
kifflom [539]

Answer:

D The atrioventricular valve works as a rigid door to prevent water from escaping from the top.

Explanation:

the question is incomplete, but I annex the options and their explanation

When you compress the heart in this demo, why does the water leave the artery?

A It's like squeezing a sponge

B The arterial valve draws water from the ventricle.

C The atrioventricular valve has parachute-shaped fins to prevent water from escaping from the top.

D The atrioventricular valve works as a rigid door to prevent water from escaping from the top.

the atrioventricular valve during the contraction process closes at the top, thus avoiding the leakage of the liquid and leaving the artery that opens due to the force exerted by the volume and force of the ventricle.
