I found the exercise on the internet and attached is the image of the DNA strand mentioned in the question.
Between each Thymine - Adenine bond there are two hydrogen bonds, while in each Guanine - Cytosine bond there are three hydrogen bonds. This is important because allows each base to connect only with that that is the correspondent.
So, the number <span>hydrogen bonds that exist between DNAs dna strand and its complementary strand is 19.
2bonds</span>×2 (1 Adenine + 1 Thymine) + 3bonds×5 (2 guanines + 3 cytosines) = 19 bonds

SSSSS [86.1K]

The correct flowchart is energy - > atmosphere - > air pressure - > convection - > global winds. This is a very simple process as explained.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The energy from the sun actually heats up the land surface and the water surface of the earth. As the land gets heated up, the layer of atmosphere that is adjacent to the land and water also gets heated up. This leads to the decrease of air density as the heat causes expansion of gases. With decrease in air density, the air pressure also drops and the air from the cooler layer of atmosphere above comes to fill up the space and this heated air goes up. This causes the convection current to get set up. This causes the global winds and different oceanic currents to flow all over the earth throughout the year.

Explain the difference between a monohybrid cross and a dihybrid cross, and give an example of each.

Kay [80]

Monohybrid crosses only look at one genotype. Whereas dihybrid crosses look at two genotypes.
An example of a monohybrid cross would be AA x aa, where A represents the dominant allele, and its phenotype is the colour red, and a represents the recessive allele, and its phenotype is the colour white.
An example of a dihybrid cross would be SSYY x SsYy, where the letter S represents the size, dominant phenotype is large, recessive is small, and Y represents the colour, dominant phenotype is yellow, recessive is green.

1. Almost 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Only about 0.85% is composed of another five elements: potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium.
2. The four most abundant elements in the human body – hydrogen, oxygen, carbon and nitrogen – account for more than 99 per cent of the atoms inside you.

Rasek [7]

As the main illness before you have a fever will normally be sore throat ( if you are heaty ) and flu ( if you caught a cold ) .
Hence the Doctors need to start monitoring the sore throats more carefully to prevent the increase of rheumatic fever cases .
Hope this helps !! :)

Dna gets duplicated during a process called replication when does it happen

babunello [35]

Cells Can Replicate Their DNA Precisely. Replication is the process by which a double-stranded DNA molecule is copied to produce two identical DNA molecules. DNA replication is one of the most basic processes that occurs within a cell.
