Answer:

The correct answer will be option-E

Explanation:

The structure of DNA revealed by Watson and Crick showed that Two strands of DNA are present in the intertwined state forming helix representing DNA as a double helix.

Each strand of DNA is made up of the monomer unit of DNA called nucleotide where each nucleotide binds to another nucleotide through weak covalent bond called phosphodiester bond.

The phosphodiester bond is formed between the 3’-OH group of one nucleotide to 5’ phosphate group of another nucleotide. In this way, the phosphate-sugar molecule forms the backbone of the DNA molecule.

Thus, option-E is the correct answer

Which of the following resources can be in limited supply in an ecosystem?
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Food, sunlight, water, oxygen and shelter :3

Explanation:

As a growing population reaches the limits of the available resources in an environment, its size levels off to "match" the amount of resources available. In doing so, the population reaches its carrying capacity.

Another factor that affects the carrying capacity of an ecosystem is the rate at which decomposers can break down the remains of dead organisms within the ecosystem. The faster an ecosystem can recycle the nutrients in dead organic matter, the larger the populations it sustains can become.
