Answer:

B. Ability to move

Explanation:

Living things are organisms that possess life in them. Due to the possession of life in them, they are able to carry out certain functions that non-living things cannot. These functions are called their characteristics. These characteristics include movement, reproduction, nutrition, irritability, growth, excretion, respiration, and even death.

However, a group of living things cannot perform one of these characteristics, which is movement. Movement is referred to as the change in position of an organism. Plants, one of the groups of living things, cannot move from their position. Although they can undergo gradual changes in their body parts but they do that in response to certain stimuli (Irritability) not leaving their static position.

Meninges refers to the three layes of membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord of the mammals. The inflammation of these protective membranes of the brain and the spinal cord caused by the infection of bacteria, virus or other microorganisms is called the meningitis.

A laboratory test to identify or rule out meningitis is the analysis if the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by lumbar puncture. CSF is a colorless fluid filling the ventricles of the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord. Lumbar puncture is a techinque of isolating the CSF from the sac sround the spinal cord using a needle under a local anesthetic. The sample is then analysed for the opening pressure which is normally between 6 and 18 cm of water in a patient who is not infected with meningitis. Also, the levels of glucose in CSF is above 40% of that in blood in non-infected persons. If lactate levels are less than 35mg/dl, this will also rule out meningitis.

This bonds to cytosine (C) in DNA.
shtirl [24]

Answer: <u>Guanine </u>

According to Chargaff's rule, the base pairing in the DNA and RNA is fixed. Adenine always pairs with Thymine in DNA and Uracil in RNA. Guanine pairs up with cytosine. This complementary base pairing is universal and constant. That's why amounts are also equal. It means if cytosine is 20% in any DNA sample, then amount of guanine would be 20% as well.
