Answer:

A

Explanation:

Deoxyribosenucleic acid (DNA) is one of the two types of nucleic acids, the other being RNA. DNA is a polymer called polynucleotide made up of subunits called NUCLEOTIDE. Each nucleotide is made up of components that make up its structure. These components are:

1. A five-carbon sugar, which can be Deoxyribose or ribose depending on whether it is present in DNA or RNA respectively. The difference in the two sugars is the deficiency of one oxygen atom in deoxyribose.

2. Phosphate group with the structure PO3 (4-)

3. Nitrogenous bases, which are four in number viz: Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine/Uracil. Thymine is only present in DNA while Uracil is only present in RNA.

Hence, the answer to the question is Deoxyribose, phosphate and Thymine (nitrogenous base).

tekilochka [14]
This is an example of microevolution.

Microevolution
represents a small change in the genetic structure of the population. These changes manifest through the change in the allele frequencies of genes like in the case of dung beetles.
The causes of microevolution are evolutionary mechanisms, natural selection, genetic drift, mutations and gene flow.

Explanation:

Marissa suffers from panic disorder, where she experiences unpredictable, unbearable episodes of panic that closely resemble the symptoms of a heart attack.(This description of her disorder represent distress)

Panic disorder is a stress disorder described by reoccurring sudden panic attacks.

Distress is a situation of severe stress or tension, usually caused by different factors such as failure in the exam, teasing, personal problems, loss of a job, etc.

Distress changes in the process of blood clots and increases the blood pressure level, weaken the heart muscle that increases the problem of heart attack.

ikadub [295]
<span>This theory is called punctuated equilibrium. In this theory it is explained that there are very long periods of no change at all to a species, yet there are also bursts of evolutionary change interspersed within the time period. The period of remaining the same throughout time (most of the time) is called stasis, and is present within this theory of punctuated equilibrium.</span>
