Answer:

(a) <u>16</u> % of the alien genome is comprised of G.

(b) 17% of the alien genome is comprised of T.

(c) 17% of the alien genome is comprised of A.

(d) <u>22</u> % of the alien genome is comprised of X.

Explanation:

Assuming the alien follows Chargaff's rules which states that DNA from any cell of any organisms should have a 1:1 ratio (base Pair Rule) of pyrimidine and purine bases.

So if:

16% contains C ; 16 % pairs with G = 32% C-G pairing.

22% contains Y ; 22 % pairs with X = 44% X-Y pairing.

44% G-C + 32% X-Y =  76%

100%-76% = 34% the remaining should be split between T and A which is 17% each one.

<h2>                                 HELLO</h2><h2>_______________________________</h2><h2>THIS INFO BELOW WILL HELP YOU</h2><h2>_______________________________</h2><h2>Environmental policy is aimed at balancing environmental protection and the conservation of natural resources with other policy goals, such as affordable energy as well as economic growth and employment. Federal and state environmental rules cover air quality, water quality, waste management, land conservation, chemical and oil spills, drinking water quality. Some environmental policies regulate the actions of private individuals, organizations, or businesses. For example, a factory that must discharge wastewater as part of its daily operations may need to hold and maintain a federal permit. The factory would be required to follow a set of rules and requirements within its permit to comply with environmental laws. </h2><h2 /><h2>Environmental rules and regulations vary in their requirements depending on issue involved. Environmental policy and energy policy are also interconnected. For example, energy production and consumption can produce environmental effects. As a result, environmental policy can involve restrictions or regulations on energy production such as oil and natural gas operations or solar energy development.</h2><h2>____________________________________</h2><h2>so that means the answer is reduce the use of natural resources</h2><h2>____________________________________</h2><h2>hope this helps have a good day  :):):):):):):):):):)</h2><h2>                                Goodbye</h2>
