<span>If I were attempting to date a rock sample that I suspect to be incredibly old, i would use radioactive isotopes with a long half life. When dating rocks and fossils to discover approximately how old they are, radioisotope dating is used on igneous rocks found near fossils. Things like Uranium 235, which is an unstable radioactive isotope of elements, decays at a constant rate over time so can be useful in determining age.</span>

Molecule 1 has the nitrogenous base sequence TCA AGT. Which set of bases in Molecule 2 can bond to that sequence in a complement
serious [3.7K]

Complete question:

Molecule 1 has the nitrogenous base sequence TCA AGT. Which set of bases in Molecule 2 can bond to that sequence in a complementary way?

a. UCAAGU

B. AGTACA

C. AGUUCA

D. UCAATA

Answer:

C. AGUUCA

Explanation:

DNA template strand and the corresponding RNA have complementary sequences. Adenine in the DNA template strand pairs with "uracil" base of RNA while cytosine pairs with its "guanine" base. Similarly, thymine base in DNA template strand pairs with "adenine" base in the RNA. This occurs since RNA does not have a thymine base. RNA has uracil base instead. Therefore, the molecule 1 with sequence  TCA AGT would bind to the molecule 2 with the " AGU UCA" sequence.  

Molecule 1: DNA template:  TCA AGT  

Molecule 2: mRNA:              AGUUCA

In meiosis 1 what happens during anaphase?
icang [17]

Anaphase I begins when the two chromosomes of each bivalent (tetrad) separate and start moving toward opposite poles of the cell as a result of the action of the spindle. Notice that in anaphase I the sister chromatids remain attached at their centromeres and move together toward the poles.
