Answer:

The correct answer is B)10%. See the explanation below, please.

Explanation:

We use the following equivalence, remembering that Adenina pairs with Timina and Guanina with Cytosine:

A=T   ; C=G   A+G=T+C

If A= 40% ----> T=40%

A+G=T+C

40%+G= 40% +C   ---->  40+10=50

G=C=10%

Answer:

I started out as glucose, got converted to pyruvate, after which I got oxidised by Oxygen to become CO2

Explanation:

My name is CO2, and I started out as glucose from pure honey. I got eaten by a little child when I was two weeks old, and I had to go through the dreadful process of aerobic respiration in the child's body.

My glucose molecules were broken down into pyruvate, and I stayed that way  for a while, as I made my way to the mitochondria of the child's cells.  Once I got to the mitochondria, I met my old friend oxygen, who reacted with me to turn me into the molecule I am today - C02.

If you want to know how I escaped the child's body, that's easy - I simply snuck out his nose while he was breathing one cold dark night.
