Answer:

During dormancy a seed respire up to a limited extent in order to fulfill the need for food or nutrient.

Explanation:

During the dormant seed stage, a plant seed modifies itself to respire in a restricted way so that it can maintain adequate supply of food or nutrient with in the endosperm (a layer which covers the seed).

It is the endosperm which carries out all specific functions related to cellular respiration during the dormancy period.

The antiparallel arrangement within DNA molecules refers to Select one:

mylen [45]

Answer:

c. one helix strand that runs from the 5' to 3' direction and the other strand runs from the 3' to 5' direction.

Explanation:

A DNA molecule has <em>two strands of nucleotides with a sugar phosphate backbone each, but orientated on the opposite direction </em>allowing for the base pairs to complement one another, making it a more stable structure. <em>When two biopolymers run parallel to each other but with opposite directionality (alignment) we have an antiparallel arrangement.</em>

I annexed an image of the DNA structure.
