Answer:

(A). Nucleotides

Explanation:

The nucleotides are the basic unit in formation of DNA and RNA. The both nucleic acids contain nucleotides with different nitrogenous bases. The nucleotide consist of ribose sugar, phosphate and a nitrogenous base.

The ribose sugar is present in the RNA and deoxyribose in the DNA. In the absence of phosphate group, the ribose sugar and nitrogenous base forms a nucleoside.

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Option 1, No. The highest frequency of heterozygotes under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is 0.5

Explanation:

As per Hardy Weinberg’s equilibrium principle, the maximum frequency of heterozytotic individuals occur only when half of the population is dominant and recessive homozygous.  

In other way when the sum of frequency of dominant and recessive species is equal to 0.5, only then the frequency of heterozygotes is maximum which in any case would not be higher than 0.5.  

Hence, option 1 is correct

When neurons "fire," the first thing that happens is that sodium ions enter the cell. this does not require an input of energy.
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer;

One can infer that membrane transport proteins are required in order for neurons to fire.

Explanation;

Transport proteins are proteins that transport substances across biological membranes. Transport proteins are found within the membrane itself, where they form a channel, or a carrying mechanism, to allow their substrate to pass from one side to the other.

-Transport proteins transport materials such as; ions such as sodium and potassium; sugars such as glucose; proteins and messenger molecules; and many more. In neurons, they  play a fundamental role in the functioning of nerve cells. These transporters, a third class of membrane transport proteins, move a wide variety of ions and molecules across cell membranes.

Which group of macromolecules includes triglycerides waxes and cholesterol?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Carbohydrates, Nucleic acids, Proteins, and Lipids

A carbohydrate is a biological molecule consisting of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms, usually with a hydrogen–oxygen atom ratio of 2:1.

Nucleic acids are bio-polymers, or large bio-molecules, essential for all known forms of life.

Proteins are large bio-molecules, or macro-molecules, consisting of one or more long chains of amino acid residues.

In biology, lipids comprise a group of naturally occurring molecules that include fats, waxes, sterols, fat-soluble vitamins, monoglycerides, diglycerides, triglycerides, phospholipids, and others.
