Now that you have come up with an equation that describes the relationship between amounts of different nucleotide bases in DNA,

can you use it to predict the amounts of all four nucleotide bases when you only know the amount of one type of base? Approximately 21% of the human genome is comprised of nucleotides containing C. Given this information, calculate the percentage of the human genome that is comprised of nucleotides containing G, T, and A. (a) _____% of the human genome is comprised of G.
(b) _____% of the human genome is comprised of T.

(c) _____% of the human genome is comprised of A.

Enter your answer as three numbers separated by commas (example: 12, 26, 32).

Answer:

The correct answer will be- 21, 29, 29

Explanation:

In a DNA sequence, the nucleotide base pairs on one strand of DNA are  complementary to the base pair on other strand of DNA.

According to the Chargaff rule, Adenine binds Thymine and Cytosine binds Guanosine which shows that the amount of A will equal T and the amount of G will equal C.

Therefore, when the amount of C is 21%, then the amount of G will be 21%.

To find amount of AT= 100-GC

                              AT= 100-42

                                AT= 58%

So, AT/2= 29% each

Thus, A=T= 29%

          G=C=21%

Okazaki fragments are formed on which strand?
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The leading strand is continuously synthesized and is elongated during this process to expose the template that is used for the lagging strand (Okazaki fragments). During the process of DNA replication, DNA and RNA primers are removed from the lagging strand of DNA to allow Okazaki fragments to bind to.

photosynthesis and cellular respiration both use electron transport chains. what is the source of electrons for photosynthesis a
goldfiish [28.3K]

Water serves as an electron source in the electron transport process of photosynthesis. The electron is extracted from water by using solar energy.

What is the electron transport chain's source of energy?

The electron transport chain uses the energy released by oxygen and reduced compound reactions such as cytochrome c and (indirectly) NADH and FADH2 to pump protons into the intermembranous space, producing the electrochemical gradient over the inner mitochondrial membrane.

In photosynthesis, water is split to produce electrons in the presence of sunlight, a process known as the photolysis of water. The electrons are finally transferred to NADP+ by the chloroplast electron transport chain, where they are reduced to NADPH.

Therefore, In aerobic respiration, electrons from NADH and FADH2 are transferred to oxygen by the mitochondrial electron transport chain to reduce oxygen in the water.
