34kurt3 years ago
6 0

The correct answer is: 2.5%

The vast majority of the human genome (97.5%) is comprised of non-coding DNA with different functions. Non-coding DNA includes telomeres, introns, non-coding RNA genes and gene regulatory sequences.

• Telomeres-ends of DNA with protective role (prevents shortening of DNA),

• Non-coding RNA genes-e.g. genes for tRNA,

• Gene regulatory sequences such as promoter, enhancers and silencers.

steposvetlana [31]
The correct answer for this question is "<span>The mass of the products equals the mass of the reactants because the same matter is present."

All chemical reactions follow the Law of Conservation of Mass which states that mass cannot be created nor destroyed. This means that mass is constant before and after a process. If ever it seems like the mass is not the same, it is possible that the missing mass was converted to something else.</span>

HELP ME ASAP PLEASE.<br><br>How does water move from leaves to root? explain ​
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

During transpiration, water will evaporate from tiny holes in the surfaces of leaves into the air (the tiny holes are called stomata). As the water molecules evaporate from plant leaves, they attract the water molecules still in the plant, helping to pull water up through the stems from the roots.
