A murder has occurred, and you are asked to help solve it. The police bring you a sample from the crime scene of what they belie

ve is the killer's DNA and ask you for a chemical analysis. Your study of this sample reveals the presence of adenine, thymine, ribose, and uracil, leading you to conclude that the sample is
a) pure DNA.
b) pure RNA.
c) probably a mixture of DNA and RNA.
d) probably a mixture of rRNA and mRNA.
e) definitely not from the killer.

Answer:

c) probably a mixture of DNA and RNA.

Explanation:

DNA and RNA are the two types of nucleic acids present in cells. DNA or deoxyribose nucleic acid is composed of four type of bases ( adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine ), deoxyribose sugar and phosphate group. RNA or ribose nucleic acid is composed of four types of bases ( adenine, uracil, guanine and cytosine), ribose sugar and phosphate group.

Here, the sample had adenine which could be either from DNA or RNA. Thymine is from DNA. Ribose sugar is from RNA and uracil is from RNA. Hence, the sample has a mixture of DNA and RNA.

What happens in a nuclear fusion reaction?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer: C.

Explanation: During a nuclear fusion reaction, it  gets squeeze together so tightly that four hydrogen nuclei combine to form one helium atom. This is called nuclear fusion. In the process some of the mass of the hydrogen atoms is converted into energy in the form of light. The same process occurs in thermonuclear (fusion) bombs.

How does hydropower and solar power work together?
KIM [24]

Solar energy is energy that comes from the sun and is captured by solar cells. These cells transform the energy of photons of light into electrical energy. One mechanism is the energization of electrons, here the energy of the photons is transferred to the electrons, which can already be considered electric energy.

As for the hydroelectric energy, here the waterfalls or rivers flow driving a turbine, which will transform the movement into usable electric energy as it rotates.
