Answer:

D) 5'-ATGC-3' with 5'-GCAT-3'

Explanation:

In a double helix DNA, adenine always pairs with thymine and cytosine pairs with guanine. Also, the two strands of a double helix DNA are antiparallel, that is, the 5' end of one strand lies opposite to the 3' end of another strand.

Therefore, a DNA strand with base sequence 5'-ATGC-3' would have a complementary strand 5'-GCAT-3'.

Double stranded DNA: 5'-ATGC-3'                                          

                                      3' TACG 5'

Why is it more important to check for errors during dna replication than during translation?
marshall27 [118]
I think the answer would be because if there is an error in the DNA replication, it would affect one generation of cells. if the error would fall in the transcription or translation, there would only be one cell affected.

Which feature is found in eukaryotic cells but not in prokaryotic cells? A. plasma membrane B. nucleus C. cytoplasm D. genetic m
kiruha [24]

B is the correct answer

A prokaryote cell has no distinct nucleus with a membrane and neither does it have other specialized organelle.

In a eukaryotic cell, the genetic material is DNA in the form of chromosomes which are found within a distinct nucleus.

Examples of prokaryotes Streptomyces soil bacteria (from which streptomycin antibiotic is derived), Escherichia coli bacterium and Streptococcus bacteria (which causes strep sore throat).

Examples of Eukaryotes include protozoa such as amoeba, fungi, plants, animals and generally all  multicellular organisms.

Give Jeason: si System is accepted by all nations in the world.<br>​
zubka84 [21]

it's very practical, because it's on base 10, so conversion between stuff like meters to kilometer is always just a multiplication with 10 to some power

like 1 km = 1000m (10³m)

or 1 m = 10^-3km = 0.001km

same reason for other SI units.

except time, that's base 60, or 12, or 24. that's more complicated, but there isn't any real competition
