A strand of DNA contains 10% Guanine, what percent is Adeninc?

Biology
1 answer:
Wittaler [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

40% is Adenine.

Explanation:

In DNA, Guanine pairs with Cytosine and Adenine pairs with Thymine.

If a strand of DNA contains 10% Guanine, that means that it also contains 10% Cytosine.

10% G + 10% C = 20%

100% - 20% = 80% (Adenine and Thymine)

80% ÷ 2 = 40%

The strand of DNA contains 10% Guanine, 10% Cytosine, 40% Adenine, and 40% Thymine.

DENIUS [597]
So the simple answer would be evaporation is slow and can only occur through the surface of a liquid and it cools it down, while boiling is fast and produces bubbles ( evaporation does not ) and it occurs throughout the liquid and doesn’t cool it down. A similarity between the two would be water vapor is given off
Both the processes of evaporation and boiling result in a change from liquid to vapor.

Mutagens such as pollutants and uv light can cause mutations in dna
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

<u><em>They take nutrients needed by healthy cells, and as they grow they interfere with the function of normal cells and organs.</em></u>

Explanation:

Many mutations can lead to the formation of cancer. Cancer can be described as an abnormal type of cell division of the cells of the body. As cancer cells are the cells of the body dividing abnormally, the immune cells fail to fight them. These cells keep on dividing and also disturb the functioning of the neighbouring cells and tissues. They even take up most of the nutrients required by normal body cells hence, being very toxic for the normal cells.
