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.

Where do the reactions for cellular respiration happen in a cell? Why is cellular respiration important?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Oxygen is needed to help the process of turning glucose into ATP. The initial step releases just two molecules of ATP for each glucose. The later steps release much more ATP. Most of the reactions of cellular respiration are carried out in the mitochondria.
