7. Adenine (A), Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine are the four nitrogenous bases in DNA.

8. In DNA Cytosine always forms hydrogen bonds with guanine.

9. The sequence of nucleotides carries the genetic information of an organism.

10. The process of replication produces a new copy of an organism's genetic information which is passed on to a new cell.

11. The double-coiled shape of DNA is called a double helix

Explanation:

There are four nitrogenous bases in the DNA of an organism. Two of the bases are pyrimidines eg: Thymine and cytosine while 2 of the bases are purine  bases namely adenine and guanine. The purine of one strand forms a hydrogen bond with pyrimidine of the parallel strand of DNA.

The bases are present in nucleoplasm as dNMPs and in DNA they are present as dNTPs (deoxyribonucleotide triphosphate). During replication, these dNMPS keeps on bonding with other dNMPs in the presence of ATP and as DNA Polymerase, ligase topoisomerase etc. These nucleotides form the DNA strands and they are responsible for coding proteins. The sequence of DNA is also termed as gene.

The double helix structure of DNA was given by Watson and Crick. Each strand has an alternative backbone of sugar and phosphate group. The four bases bonds with glycosidic and phosphodiester bonds with sugar and phosphoric acid.

How does the temp of water effect how long a glow stick will glow for?
cestrela7 [59]
Yes, Chemical reactions occur slower at lower temperatures and faster at higher temperatures. When you put a glow stick in cold water, the chemical reaction slows down but will last for a longer period of time. When you put a glow stick in hot water, the reaction speeds up but will be over quicker.

Not sure about the variable one though, sorry!

What are viruses considered to be non-living?
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Viruses are often considered non-living because outside of a living cell, they do not exhibit the characteristics of living organisms: they are basically like crystals. But within a living organism, they become activated and are able to carry out life's activities like replication (a form of reproduction).

Compare and contrast the structure and function of the anterior and posterior pituitary glands. drag the appropriate items to th
borishaifa [10]
Anterior Pituitary or adenohypophysis has two parts: pars distalis and pars intermedia..though they are kinda joined in humans.
•Pars distalis (actuallyknown as the anterior pituitary) secretes hormones like Growth Hormone or Somatotrophin, Prolactin, TSH, ACTH,LH,FSH.
•Pars intermedia secretes only one hormone MSH (Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone)
•Posterior pituitary or Neurohypophysis stores two hormones (originally secreted by the hypothalamus) which are Oxytocin and Vasopressin or ADH.

Cheers..dont forget to deem this answer as a brainy answer :)

_______ cause(s) populations to change over time.
vekshin1
The answer is B., Natural Selection.

Weather certainly doesn't change populations, and genes only caused individuals in a population to be slightly ( genetically-wise ) different from the others. It does cause change, but not change in the whole population over time.
Natural disasters don't change the populations over time either. Natural disasters only caused change in their environment, at most.

So, the only answer left is natural selection, and it makes sense too! 
Natural selection is the process where the individuals with better traits suited to survive in that specific environment live on and give those good traits to their offspring.
The individuals with less suited traits to survive will die out, and will not be given an opportunity to reproduce and pass on their less suited traits, so over time, the population will increase of individuals with better suited traits to survive and the individuals with less suited traits will eventually die out, therefore making the entire population change.

Hope I helped you!
