Describe how water
1 answer:
Explanation:
Epipelagic zone, the topmost at the surface of the oceans receives most of the sunlight and most penetrating light rays diffuse in this layer. The temperatures at this zone, therefore, is warmer than zones below. This zone has lowest water pressure becaue there is little water column above it.
The deeper you get into the water the penetration of sunlight decreases. This is because the rays are greatly diffused even before they get to the deepest zones. The abyssalpelagic zone virtually receives no sunlight because the rays cannot get to this zone. This zone is, therefore, pitch dark and also the coldest. The deeper you get into the ocean the higher the water pressure due to the weight of the able water column. The water pressure is, therefore, highest in the abyssalpelagic zone.

Answer:
The nucleic acid is a macromolecule present in living systems in the form of either DNA or RNA, whose molecule consists of many nucleotides which are linked with each other to form long chains. The presence of DNA or RNA in an individual promotes continuity of life. The variability and complexity of nucleic acid are dependent on its constituent molecules as, sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. However, two monocyclic nitrogenous bases were classified purines (adenine:A, guanine:G) and pyrimidines (thymine:T, cytosine:C, and uracil:U).
In addition, RNA is a single-stranded structure which differs from DNA in two aspects, the sugar content of RNA is ribose, and pyrimidine base uracil replaces the thymine base of DNA. A ratio between two strands of DNA can be calculated by using Chargrff's rule which states that "DNA from any cell of all organisms possess a 1:1 ratio (base Pair Rule) of pyrimidine and purine bases'.
The purine to pyrimidine ratio in RNA with different bases is given below in the following table:
Presence of single strand in RNA does not follow chargaff's rule and alters the purine: pyrimidine ratio. The above ratio of each base in the given information is not equal, due to which the ratio of purines to pyrimidines is different. The ratio of DNA and RNA is not equal because DNA has its complementary DNA strand. However, bases in RNA might vary due to its single-strandedness property, but its ratio is dependent on the species.
Therefore, it can be concluded that the ratio of purines to pyrimidines is dependent on the species due to its genetic makeup. Hence, option (c) is correct.
