Answer:

the nitrogen-containing bases

Explanation:

<em>The nitrogen-containing base sequence of DNA contains all the genetic information which are encoded as mRNA during transcription and then translated into polypeptides during the process of translation/protein synthesis. </em>

The genetic code (codon) is a sequence of 3 bases which codes for specific amino acids.

The sugar phosphate backbone of the DNA holds the DNA structure together and has a negative charge that makes the DNA to be water-soluble.

steposvetlana [31]

-10grade/week

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial grade = 95grade

Final grade = 65grade

Time = 3weeks

Unknown parameter:

Rate of change of grade = ?

Solution:

Rate is defined as the change of a quantity with time.

 Rate of change of grade  = \frac{Final grade - Initial grade}{Time}

Rate of change of grade  = \frac{65 - 95}{3} = \frac{-30}{3}

Rate of change of grade = -10grade/week

The rate of change of the student's grade is -10grade/week. It implies that the grade of the student reduces by 10unit per week.
