Which organism has the highest percentage of adenine?

2 answers:

6 0

Yeast has the most important percentage of adenine with 31.3%, comparing to human which has 30.9% and other species like Streptococcus, Herring, and E.coli.

Generally, the percentage of adenine and thymine are equal, because they are linked together in the DNA, and the guanine and cytosine percentage are equal too. So if we have the percentage of adenine in the DNA of a species, we can figure out the other percentages.

Yeast is the organism with the highest percentage of Adenine. Adenine is a purine that is used in forming nucleotides of the nucleic acids. It has a variety of roles in biochemistry, in the form of energy-rich adenosine triphosphate and the cofactors nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and flavin dinucleotide, and protein synthesis, as a component of DNA and RNA. It binds to thymine via two hydrogen bonds to help in stabilizing the nuclei acid structures.

kaheart [24]

D. DD = 0.0225; Dd = 0.1275; dd = 0.7225

The value of Dd is different in question.

Explanation:

Given -

Dark colored = DD, Dd

light colored = dd

Frequency of allele D = 0.15

Frequency of allele d = 0.85

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is applied.

DD = 0.15 X 0.15 = 0.0225

Dd = 0.15 X 0.85 = 0.1275

dd = 0.85 X 0.85 = 0.7225

Therefore, DD = 0.0225; Dd = 0.1275; dd = 0.7225

Mkey [24]

Answer:

In humans, there are four basic types of tissue: epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous tissue. There may be various sub-tissues within each of the primary tissues. Epithelial tissue covers the body surface and forms the lining for most internal cavities.

A population of wild-flowers was scored for flower color. There were 342 blue (BB) plants, 1622 violet (BR) plants and 797 red (

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Since the homozygous have 2 alleles and heterozygous have one of each. The allelic frequency of blue will be calculated as;

Step 1 Freq B

Freq B = 2×no of Blue+ No of purple/2× total number of plants

No of blue plants(BB)=342

No of violet plants(BR)=1622

No of red plants(RR)=797

Frequency of allele B= 2×342+1622/5522

Frequency of allele B=0.4176

2. Freq red

Since allelic freq should add up to 1. freq for Red will be

1-0.4176=0.5824

also using the same formula used for Blue gives the same answer.

3.Expected number for Blue, Red and Violet

a)Expected frequency=p2=0.4176² =0.1744

Expected Blue plants= 2761*0.1744=481.5184

b)Expected frequency=q2=0.5824²=0.3392

Expected Red plants=2761*0.3392=936.5312

c)Expected frequency=2pq = 2*0.4176*0.5824 = 0.4864

Expected plants=2761*0.4864= 1342.9504
