Answer:

It transmits genetic information to the next generation

Explanation:

DNA does not speed up chemical reactions inside the cells. That's the enzyme's job.

DNA does not directly form proteins. Amino acids form proteins

It does not provide a form of energy to the cells. Energy is produced in the cell when a phosphate from ATP is broken to from ADP.

Hence, we have only one option left. It transmits genetic information to the next generation. This is true as DNA contains genetic information and plays a major role in the characteristics of an organism.

Hope this helped!!!

Answer:

It transmits genetic information to the next generation

Explanation:

DNA stores information on how the cell should be made and ‘run’. This is why it is critical that its integrity is well preserved. Otherwise, mutations on DNA can be lethal to the cell. In higher cells, DNA is protected in the nucleolus. To pass down the genetic information, DNA is replicated by DNA polymerases and then during cell division, either copy of the pair goes to each of the two daughter cells.

How does your stomach tell your brain its hungry?
iVinArrow [24]
<span>There are two hormones that determine whether you fell hungry or full -- ghrelin and leptin. Ghrelin sounds like gremlin, and it's the hormone that makes your stomach churn and says, 'Hey, you gotta eat.' The second, leptin, sends message from fat that tells your brain you are full.</span>

What other evidence could you use to analyze evolutionary relatedness among gibbons, monkeys, and humans?
AysviL [449]

Since the question is incomplete, the answer will include the generalize ways that can be used to analyze evolutionary relatedness among gibbons, monkeys, and humans.

Answer:

The evolutionary relationship is important to understand the evolution of the organisms. The common ancestors and closely related species of the organisms can be known by study the evolutionary relationship of the organism.

The DNA sequence and the amino acid sequence of gibbons, monkeys, and humans are quite similar with each other. The gibbons and humans have more then 99% DNA sequence similarity. The physical characteristics, cranial capacity and anatomical characteristics of the gibbons, monkeys, and humans are more or less similar with each other.
