<h2>Answer:</h2>

The DNA acts as carrier of genetic information and is also involved determining the structure and function of organism.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The fundamental job of DNA is that it acts as carrier of genetic information and is also involved determining the structure and function of organism. It is the major components due to which the cell secrets proteins which are required for all metabolic action of the cell.  

The DNA sections that convey hereditary data are called genes; however, other DNA arrangements have auxiliary purposes, or are associated with controlling the statement of hereditary data.

Why more atp is produced in aerobic respiration than in anaerobic respiration
Oxana [17]
Most of the ATP produced by aerobic cellular respiration is made by oxidative phosphorylation. This works by the energy released in the consumption of pyruvate being used to create a chemiosmotic potential by pumping protons across a membrane. 

<span>Aerobic metabolism is 19 times more efficient than anaerobic metabolism (which yields 2 mol ATP per 1 mol glucose). They share the initial pathway of glycolysis but aerobic metabolism continues with the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. The post glycolytic reactions take place in the mitochondria in eukaryotic cells, and in the cytoplasm in prokaryotic cells.</span>

Which body cells always or sometimes carry out the anaerobic energy extraction pathway? A. Red blood cells and muscle cells. B.
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

A. Red blood cells and muscle cells.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration which takes place in the presence of the oxygen is known as aerobic respiration and which takes place in the absence of oxygen is known as anaerobic respiration.

In anaerobic respiration, the cells produce a very low amount of ATP compared to the aerobic respiration but still in the human body to survive, the cells have this conserved process.

The cells in humans in which the process takes place are the red blood cells which do not possess the nucleus, the mitochondria and the other organelles so they perform anaerobic respiration. The muscle cells, when deprived of oxygen, undergo anaerobic respiration which produces a very low amount of ATP molecules and lactic acid also called fermentation.

Thus, option-A is correct.

What would happen if hydrogen bonds form between any two nitrogenous bases in dna
ella [17]
I believe that identical copies of original DNA wouldn't be formed. 
DNA has a strict pairing rule, adenine can only go with thymine, and cytosine can only go with guanine. 
This is because of thymine and adenine make 2 hydrogen bonds between each other, while cytosine and guanine form 3. Therefore bonding out of this order is impossible (unless it's a mutation in which there are exceptions). 
<span>When DNA replicates, each strand of the original DNA serves as a template for the new strand of DNA. Hence the new strand that goes with the first original DNA strand is the same as the second DNA strand. 
</span>If the bonding between the nitrogen bases is messed up, the new strand of DNA will not be exactly what it should be. To demonstrate, if the nucleotide is thymine for the original strand, the new strand should be adenine. <span>However, if the bonding is arbitrary, then the new strand could be cytosine or guanine as well, therefore there is no definite answer to what the new strand should be. This will make havoc in the genetic codes and will most likely kill the organism. 
</span>I hope this answer has answered your question and good luck with your assignment. I apologise if I am incorrect. Have a good day/night.
