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.

How did Pangea breakup contribute to evolution
swat32
<span>If a geological barrier (like a continent splitting apart) separates a population of primates, then each population will evolve separately to fit the different conditions of their environments.

As a hypothetical example, if one part of Pangea went north, the primates on that part would adapt to cold temperatures. If the other part went toward the equator, those primates would adapt to heat and direct sunlight. Eventually they would evolve into different species over many generations.</span>

Fossil fuels have been used for years as a source
VMariaS [17]


The best answer is (1)

Fossil fuels are commercially available as an energy source.

They are very easy to find. More and more extractions of fossil fuels is going on everyday. With advancement in science and  technology, the refineries and extraction procedures have improved a lot. This makes their availability even better.

Fossil fuels are also easily combustible. Most combustion engines need to be powered with little amount of fuel to produce large amount of energy. Very large amounts of electricity can be  generated  from fossil fuels.
