Watson and Crick derived their model of DNA structure not from their own laboratory research but rather through the analysis and

interpretation of experimental data generated by others, such as Erwin Chargaff, Rosalind Franklin, and Maurice Wilkins. Which of the following provides evidence that DNA nucleotides are arranged as complementary base pairs?
A. DNA nucleotides contain a five-carbon deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and one of four possible nitrogenous bases.
B. The nucleotides forming a single strand of DNA are linked together by covalent phosphodiester bonds.
C. Percentages of adenine and thymine are approximately equal to one another, and the percentages of cytosine and guanine are approximately equal to one another.
D. Complementary strands of DNA are antiparallel.

Answer: C

Explanation: The evidence that percentages of adenine and thymine are approximately equal and likewise that of cytosine and guanine. This is based on Erwin Charging's base composition studies. The DNA nucleotide are arranged as base with adenine on one strand forming double bonds with thymine on the complimentary strand likewise cytosine on one strand forms triple bond with guanine on the complementary

Answer:

C. Percentages of adenine and thymine are approximately equal to one another, and the percentages of cytosine and guanine are approximately equal to one another.

Explanation:

A nucleotide is made up of a sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogenous

(Purine and Pyrimidine) bases: adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) or cytosine (C).

Each nucleotide base can hydrogen-bond with a specific partner base in a process known as complementary base pairing.

Cytosine forms three hydrogen bonds with guanine while adenine forms two hydrogen bonds with thymine. These hydrogen-bonded nitrogenous bases are often referred to as base pairs.

Which of the following statements regarding the endomembrane system is false? Which of the following statements regarding the en
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

The endomembrane system includes the nuclear envelope.

Explanation:

The endomembrane is composed by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the golgi apparatus. Its main function is to synthesize proteins (rough endoplasmic reticulum studded with ribosomes) proteins can also be modified in the ER of pass to the golgi apparatus where they can be modified and sort to be packed in vesicles to be exported to different parts of the body, for example hormones.

the nuclear envelope only holds the DNA and it´s not involved in protein synthesis.

When the land and the sea warm up at different rates during the day, what is the most likely result? A. a breeze B. rain C.snow
Airida [17]

A. a breeze

A breeze is caused by unequal heating and cooling of adjoining areas of the surface of the Earth. It is strongest during the day in warm, dry weather. More intense solar radiation leads to stronger breeze. It can be countered or augmented by winds moving through pressure systems.
