Which would have the highest melting temperature? a. 5'-AATTCGAAT-3' b. 5'-ACGGCTACG-3'

Biology
1 answer:
Oksanka [162]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Option (b).

Explanation:

Melting temperature may be defined as the temperature at which the DNA strand melts. The melting temperature depends on the Guanine and cytosine content of the DNA.

The thymine binds with Adenine with two hydrogen bonds whereas cytosine binds with guanine with three hydrogen bonds. More energy is required to break the guanine cytosine bonds and they have high temperature. The second strand 5'-ACGGCTACG-3' contains more GC content and hence have high melting temperature.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).

A plant's stem _____.
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

All the above

Explanation:

A stem is one of two main structural axes of a vascular plant, the other being the root. It supports leaves, flowers and fruits, transports fluids between the roots and the shoots in the xylem and phloem, stores nutrients, and produces new living tissue.

Stems have four main functions which are:[1]

Support for and the elevation of leaves, flowers and fruits. The stems keep the leaves in the light and provide a place for the plant to keep its flowers and fruits.

Transport of fluids between the roots and the shoots in the xylem and phloem(see below)

Storage of nutrients

Production of new living tissue. The normal lifespan of plant cells is one to three years. Stems have cells called meristems that annually generate new living tissue.
