Answer:

Nitrogenous bases have two distinct families known as purines and pyrimidine, nitrogenous are the building blocks or monomer units of the nucleic acids.

The major and significant difference between purines and pyrimidines is the difference in their structures-

The purines are divided into two different bases called adenine and guanine and each of them have a two-ringed structure formed with a 9-membered molecule and 4 nitrogen atoms which makes it a large in size than purines.

The pyrimidines are divided into 3 bases that are cytosine, uracil, and thymine and all these have only one single ring of six members and 2 nitrogen atoms.  These are smaller in size.

Why should/shouldn't Pluto be reclassified as a planet?​
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

(This could be opinion based, but ok.)

Explanation:

should:Pluto was known as a planet for 75 years. This means that most people already knew it as a planet, and would be extremely confused. All of the books about planets would be inaccurate and changed. Not all people can access brand new books, leading to inaccurate information.

shouldn't: The same reason that it was unclassified as a planet. It does not adhere to all of the rules of being a planet. It is not completely round and does not have a round orbit around the sun. Pluto does not have every requirement to be a real planet, and therefor, it would be incorrect to have it classified wrongly.
