Which organism has the highest percentage of adenine?

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.

3. What is crossing over? When does it occur during meiosis? Why did you have difficulty modeling this element of meiosis using

FrozenT [24]

Crossing over happens in Meiosis 1 only. In Prophase 1 a cells chromatin (chromatin = chromosomes that have not condensed yet) condense and pair up forming homologous chromosomes (paired = XX (2 chromosomes together)). When this happens segments/ alleles of the chromosomes pairing up swap over. This creates genetic diversity as each chromosome is different, it has parts from its pair. This leaves every chromosome unique and individual.

I hope this helps, sorry some of the vocab is rather technical. By the way I would suggest watching the 'Crash Course: Meiosis' on YouTube, this really helped me when I was learning this topic. :D

What happens to the body when motor neurons are injured?

spayn [35]

ANSWER:

Lesions are areas of damage to motor neurons. Damage to upper motor neurons stops the signals your muscles need to move. When your muscles don't move for a long time, they become weak and stiff. Over time, it can become harder to walk and control your movement.

One important difference between a mylinated and bare axon is _____.

JulijaS [17]

A myelinated axon has a sheath around it and a bore axon doesn't have it, it's open or exposed so to speak. The myelin is made up of fat and protein and works like insulation. these axons make up the white matter in the brain since it appears white. The sheath helps to keep the electrical current from leaving the axon and the myelin sheath provides a tract along which regrowth can occur.
