A) Chargaff discovered two rules that helped to reveal the structure of the double helicon DNA. Chargaff's rules claim that the DNA from any cell and any organism should have a 1: 1 ratio (base pair rule) of pyrimidine and purine bases, and more specifically that the amount of guanine is equal to the amount of cytosine, and the amount of adenine is equal to the amount of thymine. This form was found in both DNA strands.

B) James Watson and Francis Crick in 1953 proposed the first correct model of the double helicon DNA structure. Their model was based on only one X-ray diffraction image recorded by Rosalind Franklin and Raymond Gosling in May 1952, as well as information that the DNA bases ware paired, which came out of private communication with Erwin Chargaff during the previous years. Chargéff's rules played a very important role in determining the configuration of double helices for B-DNA as well as for A-DNA.

Brrunno [24]

You may talk about this picture:

A: it is an ionic bond (which is a strong interaction, between two close atoms which has a large difference in their charges, like azote and oxygen)
B: is a hydrogen bond (between O in a side and H in the other side)
C: it could be a Van der Waals bond (small interaction between Carbon and hydrogen from different sides (London interaction))
D: Hydrogen bond (between the Oxygen and hydrogen from different sides)
E: it's an ionic bond

Describe the type of plants that serve as pioneer species, intermediate species, and climax community species in secondary succe

MissTica

In secondary succession, the pioneer species are plants that are adapted to exploit disturbances rather than bare rock. They typically include plants such as grasses, birch trees, and fireweed. Organic matter from the pioneer species improves the soil so other trees and plants can move into the area.
