The right answer is a. they contain many small, repeating subunits bonded together.

In chemistry and biology, a polymer is a molecule made up of a chain of similar molecules, called monomers; a polymer is a macromolecule resulting from the assembly of many identical units (monomers), a chemical compound with repetitive structural units.

DNA, glycogen and proteins are polymers

A group of cells is assayed for DNA content immediately following mitosis and is found to have an average of 4 picograms of DNA
damaskus [11]

Answer:

b: 8;8

Explanation:

Mitotic or meiotic cell division constitute the m phase of the cell cycle. At the end of the m phase, the new cells enter the interphase stage of the cell cycle. The interphase is further sub-divided into;

  • <em>the G_0 phase,</em>
  • <em>the G_1 phase,</em>
  • <em>the S phase; and</em>
  • <em>the G_2 phase</em>.

The G_0 phase is essentially a resting phase. Cells that do not need to divide except when necessary move into this phase after exiting the m phase.

Actively dividing cells enter the G_1 phase after exiting the m phase. Cell development and growth takes place. From there, the cells enter the S phase where DNA replication/synthesis takes place. The cells then enter the G_2 phase where proteins are synthesized in preparation for division or m phase.

At the S phase, the amount of DNA a cell carries is doubled but the chromosome number remains the same. For example, if a cell enters the S phase with 2 g of DNA containing 10 chromosomes, at the end of S phase, the amount of DNA would have come 4 g while the number of chromosomes will remain 10.

Hence, if the average amount of DNA in the assayed cells immediately after mitosis is 4 picograms, the amount would be 8 picograms at the end of S phase and will still remains 8 picograms at the end of G_2 phase.

The correct option is b.

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{Protein}

Explanation:

Ribosomes are specialized to carry protein synthesis [Manufacture of protein]. Since, Ribosomes are attached to rough endoplasmic reticulum which means that the function of RER is also protein synthesis. If a cell has a very large amount of ribosomes attached to its  rough endoplasmic reticulum, Then the cell will probably carry out the manufacture of protein.

Hope this helped!

klio [65]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Crude oils, shale,  and natural gas are some of the fossil fuels formed in this way. They are specially formed when vast amounts of algae die and sink to the bottom of the oceans over time and accumulate with sediments. They become buried under vast layers of sediments that apply high pressure. Over time, the high pressure and temperature turn the organic molecules into fossil fuels.
