The double-helix shape of DNA.
Nesterboy [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

In 1953, Watson and Crick determined the double-helix composition of DNA, that is, the molecule comprising human genes. They found that the composition of DNA was a spiral of two strands of DNA or a double-helix polymer, each comprising a lengthened monomer chain, that is, the nucleotides wrapped around each other.  

The DNA, that is, a nucleic acid formed of nucleotides combined into chains or long strands with the help of covalent bonds. The nitrogenous bases present in the DNA are guanine, adenine, thymine, and cytosine.

B. It provides information about why certain measurements are made in an experiment

From experience, to be able to have background research helps in the design of an experiment because it would tell you what is being measured in a experiment. Without the background information, my whole class got lost on what to do until my teacher told us what we had to measure and how we could measure the experiment.

Maggots feed on dead and decaying organisms for energy. What are maggots?
Vikentia [17]
Maggots consume dead or decaying organisms so they are classified as a decomposer.

Decomposition is a process by which organic substances, like leaves or dead animals, are broken down into simpler matter.
A lot of different types of organisms, called the decomposers, will consume the organic substances and continue an essential part of the nutrient cycle. These organisms can be both bacteria, fungi but can also be insects.

This is important for recycling the organic matter that occupies space in the biosphere and that way, continues the movement of energy and matter in ecosystems.

If we removed the decomposers from this food web, how would it affect the balance of the ecosystem? A.)There would be an increas
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The dead matter from organisms such as plants and animals that die need to be recycled so the nutrients in the matter are released and used up by other organisms. This is how sustainability is achieved in ecosystems through a cyclical nature of nutrients flow. Decomposition of the dead matter is done by decomposers such as fungi and bacteria. Without them, the dead matter would accumulate while the soil would lack nutrients for plants to grow and for other bacteria to utilize for energy. This would affect the rest of the food chain/web causing the ecosystem to collapse.
