Biology

Answer: Guanine

Explanation:

The specific base pairings in DNA are Adenine to Thymine (A:T), and Cytosine to Guanine (C:G)

Hence, the double helix of DNA is held together by hydrogen bonds between pairs of bases as Guanine pair with Cytosine base with three hydrogen bonds while Adenine pair with Thymine with two hydrogen bonds.

Thus, cytosine binds to guanine on the complimentary DNA.

Answer:

E guanine

Explanation:

Each nucleotide base can hydrogen-bond with a specific partner base in a process known as complementary base pairing: Cytosine forms three hydrogen bonds with guanine, and adenine forms two hydrogen bonds with thymine.

F an adult dog has 78 chromosomes, the number of chromosomes in a dog’s sperm cell will be
telo118 [61]
There's 39 chromosomes in the sperm cell. Why? Because sperm cells are gametes and therefore they are haploid cells meaning they have half the number of chromosomes of a regular cell or diploid cell.

78 / 2 = 39

Which of the following correctly describes the appearance of muscle tissue found in the heart? (2 points) Single-nucleus, non-st
muminat

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Explanation:

Muscle tissues of the heart refers to a group of cells that are carrying out similar functions in the heart. There are three different types of muscles, these are skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscles. The cardiac muscles are found in the heart, they form the contractile wall of the heart. These muscle contract involuntarily ( that is, without any external stimulation) and they are single nucleus, striated and short.

Which of the following best describes the main purpose of the combined processes of glycolysis and cellular respiration?1 breaki
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

4. transforming the energy in glucose and related molecules in a chemical form that cells can use for work

Explanation:

Glycolysis breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate which is transformed into acetyl CoA to enter the Kreb's cycle. Kreb's cycle breakdown the acetyl CoA into CO2 and H2O. The energy stored in the glucose molecule is released during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle. The released energy is stored in the form of NADH and FADH2 as well as in few molecules of ATP.

The NADH and FADH2 enter the final step of cellular respiration, the oxidative phosphorylation. Here, NADH and FADH2 are oxidized with the help of electron transport chain (ETC). During the transfer of electrons through ETC, the proton motive force is generated which then helps in ATP synthesis.

Hence, the three steps of cellular respiration (glycolysis + Kreb's cycle + oxidative phosphorylation) retrieve the energy from nutrients such as glucose and store it in the form of ATP. ATP is used by cells as an energy source for various other functions.
