One hypothesis that has been proposed regarding the origin of life suggests that life evolved fromanʺRNA worldʺto today’sʺDNA wo

rld.ʺ
Considering the properties of RNA and DNA molecules, which questions would direct an investigation of the most insightful test(s) of this hypothesis?

A) Since ribozymes could freely enter and leave the vesicles, could these molecules have brought external DNA into the cell as a less stable, but more reliable storage molecule of double-stranded DNA?
B) Is it likely that simple, yet stable RNA molecules served as a primitive precursor to a less stable DNA molecule that was more capable of storing more information?
C) Is it likely that RNA molecules functioned as ribozymes to synthesize DNA from amino acids, and that this role was reversed when DNA became the information source?
D) Could RNA have provided a template for DNA assembly, thereby enabling a more stable molecule that is replicated more accurately?

What is the dilution factor if 2 μl of DNA sample is added to 498 μl of water (Dilution factor = Final volume / Aliquot volume)?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

The correct answers are: Dilution factor = 250 and concentration of DNA in undiluted sample = 2.5 μg/μl.

Explanation:

  • Volume of DNA taken = 2 μl.
  • Volume of added water = 498 μl.
  • Total volume of the sample = 2 μl + 498 μl = 500 μl.
  • Dilution factor = \frac{Final Volume}{Aliquot volume}  = 500\div2 = 250.
  • A₂₆₀ of the given sample is = 0.2.
  • We know that 50 μg/ml concentration of pure double stranded DNA gives an absorbance, A₂₆₀ = 1.
  • Again, Concentration of DNA(µg/ml) = A_{260}\times \texrm{dilution factor}\times 50 µg/ml.
  •                                                             = 0.2\times\ 250\times 50 = 2500 μg/ml.
  • In order to convert it into μg/μl, we have to divide the above value by 1000, hence we get, 2500\div1000 =2.5 μg/μl.

Please help <br> Science middle school
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

hope this helped!

Explanation:

19) I think the cell is eukaryotic because of it's shape

20) Prophase (added an image with more information)

21) There are 12 chromatids and 6 chromosomes present (chromatids are 1 of the of two identical halves of a replicated chromosome)

22) I think there will be 3 chromones present in each of the new cells after the cell divides (because it separates equally and half of 6 is 3)
