<h3>Answer:</h3>

Foramen magnum is a gap at the bottom of the skull near the anterior perspective of the occipital bone by which the spinal cord joins the cranium.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The foramen magnum is a big oval hole (foramen) in the occipital ossein of the scalp in people and several other creatures. It is one of the various ovals or round openings (foramina) in the bottom of the scalp. The spinal cord, an expansion of the medulla, moves by the foramen magnum as it exits the cranial cavity. Aside from the release of the medulla oblongata and its layers, the foramen magnum carries the vertebral veins, the anterior and last spinal veins, the tectorial layers and alar ligaments.

In a sample of double-stranded DNA, 10 percent of the nitrogenous bases are guanine (G). What percentage of the nitrogenous base
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

40%

Explanation:

Remember that guanine always pairs with cytosine, and thymine always pairs with adenine. That means that any time there is a guanine, there is always a cytosine.

If there are 10% guanines, then there are 10% cytosines. That means the total of guanines and cytosines is 20%.

The other 2 bases (thymine and adenine) have to make up the rest of the bases. That means they have to make up 100-20 = 80%.

Again, there will be equal amounts of thymine and adenine, so 80%/2 = 40%.
