A dna molecule containing 32% thymine would contain how much cytosine?

Biology
1 answer:
anygoal [31]3 years ago
8 0
18% because C pairs with G. A pairs with T. T and C are not complementary base pairs, but we do know that if a molecule consists of 32% T, it must have 32% A as well.

32 + 32 = 64

100 - 64 = 36

36 ÷ 2 = 18

There must be 18% of C.

Match the terms to their definition. 1. chromosome a cell whose nucleus is not bound by a membrane 2. eukaryote a genetic charac
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

1. chromosome: tight coils of DNA

2. Eukaryote: a cell that has a membrane-bound nucleus

3. Gene: a specific sequence of DNA nucleotides that carry hereditary traits

4. Prokaryote: a cell whose nucleus is not bound by a membrane

5. Trait: genetic characteristic of an individual

Explanation:

Chromosomes are the thread-like structures that appear during cell division. Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled with its packing proteins.  

A cell is defined as eukaryote or prokaryote on the basis of the presence of a membrane-bound nucleus. The cells that lack the membrane-bound nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles are called prokaryotic cells. Example: bacteria.

The cells that have a membrane bound nucleus in which DNA is present are called eukaryotic cells. Example: Plant cells.

A stretch of DNA that code for a particular protein and thereby regulate specific genetic trait is called a gene. Genes are present on chromosomes and are carried from one generation to next to maintain the genetic traits.

The features of living beings regulated by the gene are called trait. Example: skin color, eye color, etc.

Enkephalins and endorphins are peptides that act like morphine. True or False
mariarad [96]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Enkephalins and endorphins are endogenous peptides while morphine is an exogenous peptide.

Enkephalins and endorphins are powerful analgesics 18 to 500 times more than morphine. Hence, morphine is less analgesic than enkephalins and endorphins.

Enkephalins and endorphins act on the  mu, kappa , delta receptors and morphine also acts on the same receptors. All of them has same effects on the body.

Hence, Enkephalins and endorphins are peptides that act like morphine.
