Answer: 20%

Explanation:

Recall that the sum of all nitrogenous bases is equal to 100%.

Hence: A + C + G + T = 100%

Now, since adenine nucleotides is 30%, then thymine is 30% as well (A = T). Thus, the total of both is 60%.

From 100 remains 40% which is divided equally between guanine and cytosine, so each is 20%.

Thus, the percentage of the same DNA molecule that would be expected to be guanine nucleotides is 20%

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

While <u>water soluble</u> hormones can travel freely in the blood, <u>lipid soluble </u>hormones require a carrier protein because they are not soluble in the aqueous plasma

Explanation:

The water-soluble hormones such as insulin are dissolved in the blood and are carried along with the blood to their target cells.  

However, lipid-soluble hormones such as steroid hormones (cortisol) and thyroxine are hydrophobic in nature. These hormones are not dissolved in water-based blood plasma. So, these lipid-soluble hormones are carried through the carrier proteins.
