Explanation:

Watson & Crick discovered that DNA is composed of two (2) strands of DNA running antiparallel to each other. One strand is oriented in the 5’ -> 3’ direction while the other is oriented in the 3’ -> 5’ direction. The nitrogenous bases of the strands are found in between the two-strand backbones and they form hydrogen bonding with each other. Specifically, pyrimidines (Cytosine and Thymine) pair with purine (Adenine and Guanine).

The space between the strands is even throughout like a ladder with rungs of equal lengths. However during the twisting on the DNA helix, there are major grooves and minor grooves that form along the helix because of the nature of how the nitrogenous bases are attached to their respective strand. They do not project from their strands at 90 degrees.

Would mouth to mouth resuscitation between two fish work?
Nady [450]

I don't think it will work.

Fish breathe with gill not lungs. Unlike lungs, gill works one way. You breathe out air out of you mouth but fish dump the water from their gill so they shouldn't be able to push water out of their mouth.

Even if the could fish push the water through their mouth, the gas exchange didn't happen because the water didn't move through the gill. The fish that giving water cannot breathe while giving resuscitation.

Which of the following is not true concerning the flow of energy through an ecosystem? a. Most solar energy is used in photosynt
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer;

D. Most of the energy from photosynthesis flows out as heat

Explanation;

Energy flow is the amount of energy that moves through a food chain in a given ecosystem.

Producers such as green plants in a ecosystem convert energy from the the sun into carbon bonds, such as those found in the sugar glucose through the process of photosynthesis.

The amount of chemical energy storied as nutrients in the bodies and wastes of organisms flows through ecosystems from one trophic level to the next and through this flow energy also is lost as heat. And the chemical energy available to the succeeding feeding level decreases.
