Answer:

A= 20%

G= 30%

T= 20%

C= 30%

Explanation:

Recall that the sum of all nitrogenous bases in the DNA nucleotide is equal to 100%. And specific base pairings of Adenine to Thymine (A=T), and Cytosine to Guanine (C=G) must be equal.

So, the percentage of Adenine equal thymine, and that of cytosine equals guanine.

Now, A + T + C + G = 100%

So, if Adenine makes up 20% of the DNA nucleotides, Thymine is also 20%.

Then, 20% + 20% + C + G = 100%

40% + C + G = 100%

C + G = 100% - 40% = 60%

So, divide 60% by 2 to obtain the individual percentage of cytosine and guanine. Each will take 30%

Finally, A= 20%; G= 30%; T= 20%; C= 30%

The abnormal development or growth of the cells that make up the inner lining of the cervix is known as cervical ___________. hy
Hunter-Best [27]
The correct answer would be the second option. The abnormal development or growth of the cells that make up the inner lining of the cervix is known as cervical dysplasia. It is a pre-cancerous condition that involves an abnormal growth of cells in the lining of the endocervical canal which is the opening between the vagina and the uterus. A very common cause of developing this is the virus HPV or the human papillomavirus. It can be transmitted sexually and has many strains. This condition can still be cured when it is detected early. Without treating it, cervical dysplasia would develop to cancer.<span />

Which of the following is true about natural selection? ​
Anna007 [38]

The options for this question are:

- Requires genetic variation

- Results in descent with modification

- Involves differential reproductive success

- All of the above

Answer:

<u><em>The correct option is d) All of the above</em></u>

Explanation:

The theory of natural selection explains that genetic variations occur in organisms of a species. Those organisms which are better adapted to live in an environment are able to survive and pass on their characteristics to their offsprings, hence descent with modification. Through this phenomenon, evolution takes place with the passage of time. Natural selection favours survival of the fittest. Hence, all of the above statements are true.

How are chromosomes analyzed within a karyotype
Brrunno [24]
The number and appearance of chromosomes in a cell is called a karyotype. A karyotype can only be seen and studied with a microscope. ... Karyotype analysis can reveal abnormalities, such as missing chromosomes, extra chromosomes, deletions, duplications, and translocations.
