Answer:
Explanation:Plants and other autotrophs absorb nutrients from soil and water. Autotrophs are organisms that can make their own food. The most important nutrients they need are carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Other nutrients needed by plants are nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sulfur.
Answer options:
- extraction and observation of DNA
- identification of ribose and deoxyribose
- recognition of RNA as DNA’s messenger
- construction of an accurate DNA model
Answer:
- identification of ribose and deoxyribose
Explanation:
Phoebus Levene was an American biochemist who studied the structure of DNA and RNA. He was able to isolate the sugars (ribose and deoxyribose) from the nucleic acids, which are an important part of their structure.
He also determined how the nucleic acid components combine to form the nucleotides, the basic building blocks of nucleic acids, and how the nucleotides combine in chains to form the polymer.
Autotrophic prokaryotes, but more specifically chemosynthetic prokaryotes
Polar molecules (with +/- charges) are attracted to water molecules and are hydrophilic. Nonpolar molecules are repelled by water and do not dissolve in water; are hydrophobic.
