Answer:

3'-GCTATAACTCGATTCGAA-5'

Explanation:

The DNA is a macromolecule formed by two strands of polynucleotides forming a double helix.

These chains are composed of monomers called nucleotides, there are 4 different types in DNA, called nitrogenous bases: two purines, guanine (G) and adenine (A) and two pyrimidines, thymine (T) and cytosine (C). They are joined by covalent bonds in each chain.

These bases are complementary: G with C, and A with T between the two strands by hydrogen bonds making the double-stranded DNA molecule.

A sequence 5'-CGAT-3' is equivalent to a sequence written 3'-ATCG-5' , because the 5' and 3' notation defines the direction of reading. If one strand is noted 5' to 3', then the complementary strand will be from 3' to 5' in the same sense.

So, all we need to do is write the complementary bases from the 3' end to 5':

5'-CGATATTGAGCTAAGCTT-3'  

3'-GCTATAACTCGATTCGAA-5'  (answer)

The all-or-none response means that
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

option B) is correct

Explanation:

The all or none response means that if a muscle contracts, it will contract completely. Thus implying the all or none law which states:

The potential of a response of a muscle fiber or nerve cell is independent of the potential of the stimulus. If a stimulus is more than a certain critical value it will trigger muscle fiber or a nerve. Most importantly resulting in either an all-or-none response thus reducing possibility of any information loss.
