<span>The two strands of DNA are complementary. That is, there are four bases and each base in one strand interacts with only one base in the other strand. If you know all the bases in one strand you will be able to figure out all the bases in the other strand. I</span><span>f you are given a strand with the sequence ATTCAG, you know the strand it interacts with has to be TAAGTC. F</span><span>or example, A interacts only with T and C interacts only with G.</span>

The cells that produce hair contain a lot of ________, while the cells that produce the oils that coat the hair contain a lot of
AnnZ [28]

Answer:The cells that produce hair contain a lot of ROUGH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM , while the cells that produce the oils that coat the hair contain a lot of SMOOTH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM.

Explanation: ROUGH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM or  RER is a cisternae organelle that have two faces: the cytosolic face and the nucleus face. The cytosolic face is studded with ribosomes that are responsible for synthesizing proteins, a process known as translation. In the cells that produce hair, keratinocytes, the main protein synthesized is keratin.

SMOOTH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM is an organelle that lacks ribosomes and the function is related to lipid synthesis, different case that proteins synthesis. Specialized cells located in the SER (smooth endoplasmic reticulum) produces the oils that coat the hair called sebum to lubricate the hair. These cells secrete the sebum in an holocrine way. The composition of the sebum is made of triglycerides, wax esters, squalene.

<h2>Liver </h2>

Explanation:

3. It prevent  dropping of  blood glucose levels too low. so, it acts on the liver in many ways:

4. It stimulates the breakdown of glycogen which is stored in the liver  into glucose, which  finally  released into the bloodstream, this process is known as glycogenolysis.

 

5. It  also stimulates  the production of glucose from amino acid molecules and some other non carbohydrate pre-cursors, by the process known as gluconeogenesis.

Every DNA strand has an EQUAL number of adenine and thymine nucleotides in a molecule. Explain why.
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

This is the basis for Chargaff's rule; because of their complementarity, there is as much adenine as thymine in a DNA molecule and as much guanine as cytosine. Adenine and thymine are connected by two hydrogen bonds, and cytosine and guanine are connected by three hydrogen bonds
