Answer:
d. nitrogen-containing base
.
Explanation:
A nucleotide comprises a phosphate group, a pentose sugar and a nitrogenous base (nitrogen-containing base).
A nitrogenous base is a type of aromatic heterocyclic organic compound which essentially has nitrogen in it. The base can be a purine or pyrimidine. Purine nitrogenous bases are adenine (A) and guanine (G) while pyrimidine nitrogenous bases are cytosine (C), thiamine (T) and uracil (U).
Till the time a base is not attached to covalently linked phosphate group and a pentose sugar, it is known as nucleoside. But as soon as we attach any nitrogenous base to the nucleoside, a nucleotide is formed. So it means a nucleotide is nucleoside + nitrogenous base.
Examples are as under:
A nucleotide which has adenine as nitrogenous base is known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP) while a nucleotide which has guanine as nitrogenous base is known as Guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP).
Answer:
Explanation:
The independent variable determines the value that needs to be calculated or the decision that needs to be made from the observations of the experiment. Hence, experimental design decision would most likely produce invalid and unreliable results when having more than one independent variable.
Answer:
Brown eyes = 0.5
Blue eyes = 0.5
Explanation:
Given, B ( brown eyes ) is dominant over b ( blue/light eyes ). So,
BB = Brown
Bb = Brown
bb = blue/light
Mr. O'Ryan = blue eyes = bb
Mrs. O'Ryan = heterozygous brown eyes = Bb
Their children: Bb X bb :
B b
b Bb bb
b Bb bb
Half of the children will have Bb genotype and brown eyes, other half will have bb genotype and blue eyes. Hence, Kellan O'Ryan has 0.5 probability of blue eyes and 0.5 probability of brown eyes.
Answer:
They formed from a cloud of dust and gas.
Explanation:
A nebula is where the formation of stars takes place, so the Nebula Theory would pertain to the planets forming in the same way.
