Answer:
Each species has a specific identifying number of chromosomes. For example, a cat, <em>Felis catus</em>, has 38 chromosomes, while corn, <em>Zea mays</em>, has 20 chromosomes each chromosome carries specific genes that are unique to that chromosome.
Explanation:
Chromosomes vary in shape and number among living beings. For example, the bacterial chromosome is a unique circular molecule, while human beings have 46 lineal chromosomes arranged in pairs (23 pairs). The total number of chromosomes is specific to each species, and it is denoted as the "chromosomic dotation" of the species.
Genes are the hereditable units that transmit the information needed to specify traits, from parents to offspring, generation to generation. Genes are arranged in sequence in the chromosomes. A chromosome might contain hundreds of thousands of genes.
Genes vary in size and shape. They are composed of pairs of bases, and these sequences also vary in number, producing genes of different lengths. In general, genes code for proteins. Proteins create the organism tissues and perform or carry out specific functions in the organisms, controlling almost all processes and chemical reactions.
Each chromosome carries <u>specific</u> genes that code for <u>specific </u>proteins that have <u>specific</u> functions in the organisms. Each chromosome carries information to synthesize different proteins needed to accomplish a certain function. But <u>not all chromosomes carry the same gene sequences</u>. Only homologous chromosomes carry information for the same trait, but even this information is not necessarily the same. They might have the same gene but different alleles.
Answer:
D-Vacuole
Explanation:
The vacuole performs many functions such as storing water, nutrients,and wastes and it also plays a major role in the structure of the plant
Answer:
The electron transport chain
Explanation:
During the citric cycle in the matrix of the mitochondria, the NAD+ and FAD+ the metabolic cycle are reduced to NADH and FADH₂ through accepting electrons. The energy harnessed from the metabolic cycle is used to develop a proton motive force across the mitochondrion intermembrane. This potential energy is harnesses by ATP synthase to create ATPs. As the H+ ions drain back into the matrix of the mitochondria, they are used to reduce oxygen to water. In this redox reaction, the FADH₂ and NADH donate their electrons and are recycled back to the citric cycle in their oxidized form.
Answer: Base pairs occur when nitrogenous bases make hydrogen bonds with each other.
Explanation: Each base has a specific partner: guanine with cytosine, adenine with thymine (in DNA), The hydrogen bonds are weak allowing it to "unzip"
A monomer can be defined as the molecule that is capable of binding in long chains. The monomers bind together to form different polymers by the process of polymerization.
The monomer of carbohydrate is monosacchride. The monomer of proteins is amino acid, and that of lipids is glycerol and fatty acids. These three macromolecules are wrongly paired in the question.
The monomer of nucleic acids is nucleotide. This is correctly matched.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Option B - nucleic acids - nucleotides'.
