Now that you have identified the sequence of the daughter strand based on the sequence on the parent strand, can you come up wit

h an equation that explains the relative proportions of each base in a DNA macromolecule? (Note that in the equation below, "G" represents the percentage of bases that are guanine, "T" represents the percentage of bases that are thymine, "A" represents the percentage of bases that are adenine, and "C" represents the percentage of bases that are cytosine.)

Explanation:

*************

G + A = C + T

Nucleic acids are comprised of smaller units called nucleotides and function as storage for the body’s genetic information. These monomers include ribonucleic acid (RNA) or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). They differ from other macromolecules since they don’t provide the body with energy. They exist solely to encode and protein synthesis.

Basic makeup: C, H, O, P; they contain phosphate group 5 carbon sugar, these nitrogen bases which may contain single to double bond ring.

  • DNA stores all of an organism’s genetic information. Its molecules comprise the nitrogenous bases Guanine, Adenine, Cytosine and Thymine.
  • These pair up as base pairs due to their varied structure- largely influenced by the location of N molecule ;
  • cytosine and thymine are formed from pyrimidines- N at position 1 and 3 of a fused ring;
  • Guanine and adenine are formed from organic compounds called purines (pyramidines fused to another organic ring of imidazole.
  • Each base pair contains a purine and pyrimidine joined via hydrogen bonding e.g. A-T & G-C and are called base complements.

The resulting geometric arrangement allows for the formation of the DNA helix or spiral.

What would you expect to see in a blood sample of a person who has drowned in salt water? explain in terms of osmosis?
Furkat [3]
The red blood cells would look just fine or normal in the person who has drowned. Water wouldn't be lost because it wouldn't be attracted to the concentration of the salt water and the salt water would be too large to break the barriers.

Which statement is not true? A) Lipids are found in cell membranes. B) Lipids are soluble in organic solvents. C) There are many
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

D.all lipids contain fatty acids.

Explanation:

A.Lipids are fats, like oil, that are insoluble in water. ... The most abundant class of lipid molecule found in cell membranes is the phospholipid. The phospholipid molecule's polar head group contains a phosphate group. It also sports two nonpolar fatty acid chain groups as its tail.

B.The simplest definition is a lipid as any molecule that is insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents. Most lipids are soluble to some extent in organic solvents such as hexane, ether, chloroform or benzene. They constitute a complex collection organic compounds that include fatty acids, (A,D, E and K).

C.There are two major types of lipids- simple lipids and complex lipids. Simple lipids are esters of fatty acids with various alcohols. For eg., fats and waxes.

D.Not all lipids have fatty acids. The operational definition of a lipid is a biomolecule is that is sufficiently hydrophobic to be more soluble in an organic solvent than in water. The common theme to their structures is a high percentage of hydrocarbon character.

E.Most lipid hormones are steroid hormones, which are usually ketones or alcohols and are insoluble in water. Steroid hormones (ending in '-ol' or '-one') include estradiol, testosterone, aldosterone, and cortisol. ... Amino acid-derived hormones and protein hormones are water-soluble and insoluble in lipids.

Which of the following is a method used to prevent soil depletion?
ratelena [41]
<span>The best method used to prevent soil depletion would be contour farming. 

In contour farming, the land is tiled in consistent elevation. Contour farming is efficient in reducing soil depletion because it can conserve rain water and reduce the erosion of soil. 

If there is no contour farming in your option, then choose A. Adding fertilizer. </span>

Biology help please!
pav-90 [236]
<span>The brain is a very complex organ in humans. Although we still have a lot to learn about it, decades of studies in both living and dead humans had revealed that the brain is crosswired, meaning the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body and viceversa. It’s also the part of the brain associated with arts and our creativity. Therefore the answer is B</span>
