1. What is a double helix?
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

1. Double helix is the description of the structure of a DNA molecule. A DNA molecule consists of two strands that wind around each other like a twisted ladder. Each strand has a backbone made of alternating groups of sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate groups.

2. The DNA double helix. The two sides are the sugar-phosphate backbones, composed of alternating phosphate groups and deoxyribose sugars. The nitrogenous bases face the center of the double helix.

3. A nucleotide is an organic molecule that is the building block of DNA and RNA. ... A nucleotide is made up of three parts: a phosphate group, a 5-carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base. The four nitrogenous bases in DNA are adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine.

4. A nucleotide is made up of three parts: a phosphate group, a 5-carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base. The four nitrogenous bases in DNA are adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine.

5. In genetics, the term junk DNA refers to regions of DNA that are non-coding. Some of this noncoding DNA is used to produce noncoding RNA components such as transfer RNA, regulatory RNA and ribosomal RNA

Hopes this helps.

ANTONII [103]
The light-dark cycle caused by the rising and setting of the sun is responsible for what are called circadian rhythms. These are biological processes that show a cycle of around 24 hours, the time between consecutive rising of the sun. Experiments have shown that without the external cue of sunlight, the circadian rhythms of organisms tend to break down. These can be reset by being re-exposed to these cues. Jet lag is due in part to a re-setting of the circadian rhythm, as you travel to a different time zone, your body has to become used to a different timing of night and day. <span>  </span>

1. In the table below, identify each invertebrate by matching it with its characteristics.
erastovalidia [21]

Correct matching of invertebrates and its characteristics are as follows:

Sponges are animals which have many cell but no mouth, muscles , heart or brain. They are sessile and can not move from place to place like other animals do, filter feeding animals with an asymmetrical body plan.

Cnidarians are the animals with radial symmetry and stinging cnidocyte cells. These animals consists a special cell cnida which functions in preying catch and defense. example- jellyfish, anemone.

Flatworms are the worm like animal which do not consist a body cavity or coelom. example- fluke and tapeworms.

Roundworms or threadworms are segmented worms that can live in water or land. They consist a body cavity and internal organs. examples- pinworms and hookworms.

Mollusks are the animals which consist mentle, foot and and sometimes a shell. example- octopus, squids.

Echinoderms are the animals which have radial symmetry and an endoskeleton made out of calcareous plate. These animals live only in marine environment.These animals lack circulatory and excretory systems.

Arthopods are the animals with jointed legs and an exoskeleton made out of chitin. example- spiders, shrimps and crabs.

La hebra complementaria debe tener 5 millones de nucleótidos, porque cada nucleótido tiene una base nitrogenada, y la hebra complementaria debe tener la misma cantidad de bases nitrogenadas que la hebra original. (Recuerda que las dos hebras "encajan" una con otra).
