If a cells nucleus has 55% adenine bases, how many cytosine bases will be present?

Nostrana [21]3 years ago

If a cell’s nucleus has 55% adenine bases it also has 55% thymine bases, so the percentage of cytosine bases is 45% as same as  guanine bases.

This is known as Chargaff's rule which states that DNA should have a 1:1 ratio of pyrimidine and purine bases (the amount of guanine should be equal to cytosine and the same thing with adenine and thymine).

DNA molecule globally has percentage base pair equality: %A = %T and %G = %C.

How do microorganisms that act as producers benefit the rest of an ecosystem in terms of energy transfer? What about microorgani
malfutka [58]

Answer:

In an ecosystem, all organisms benefit in the process of transformation of energy.

Explanation:

An ecosystem works thanks to the constant transformation of energy. In the case of microorganisms that act as producers, they benefit the rest of the ecosystem in terms of energy transfer because they acquire the energy from a lowest trophic level to make it available for higher trophic levels.

In the case of the primary consumers, they are feeding from the primary producers, incorporating that energy to be part of the food chain. For example, bacteria in the soil are primary producer microorganisms; they transform organic material to make it available for small individuals. A soil worm is a primary consumer microorganism which will feed from this organic material transformed by the bacteria. The worm will then produce food and will be food for herbivores to continue with the flow of energy in the food chain.

The simultaneous arrival of graded depolarization and a graded hyperpolarization of equal but opposite magnitude at a particular
yuradex [85]

The simultaneous arrival of graded depolarization and a graded hyperpolarization of equal but opposite magnitude at a particular location on the dendritic membrane is likely to cancel the effects of each other and no change will occur in the membrane potential.

Explanation:

Graded potentials lead to temporary minor changes in the membrane potential associated with neuron’s dendrites. The amount of change caused depends upon the size and duration of the stimulus. These can be depolarizing or hyperpolarizing.  

Graded depolarization occurs due to the entry of sodium or calcium ions; whereas, graded hyperpolarization occurs due to exit of potassium ions or entry of chloride ions.  

When equal but opposite magnitude of graded depolarization and hyperpolarization occurs at a particular dendride of  a neuron, the positive and negative charges get neutralized causing little or no effect on the total membrane potential.
