Answer:
Cytosine- 40%
Explanation:
DNA is the genetic material in virtually all living organisms. It is a molecule made up of long chains of nucleotides, which are its building block. Four types of nucleotides make up the DNA molecule viz: Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Guanine (G), and Cytosine (C).
According to Erwin Chargaff in his rule regarding DNA composition, he stated that in a DNA molecule, the amount of adenine must equal thymine while that of guanine must equal cytosine. In a nutshell, the total of all the base pair must equally be 100% i.e. (A + T) + (G + C) = 100%.
In this case where a newly discovered bacteria from a hot spring in Yellowstone National Park was found to contain 10% of adenine in its DNA. Since Adenine is 10%, Thymine base must also be 10% in accordance to Chargaff's rule.
Hence, 10% + 10% + (G + C) = 100%.
20% + G + C = 100%
G + C = 100 - 20
G + C = 80%
Since, G and C must be equal, then G = C = 80% ÷ 2 = 40%. This means that the percentage of cytosine will be 40%.
Homozygous for allele A and heterozygous for allele B. So the answer would surly be D.

Answer:
Letter C
Explanation:
Salmon have a physiological adaptation that allows osmoregulation to occur in two different environments (seawater and freshwater). There are specific molecules in the salmon gills that "pump" and "remove" Na and Cl ions. When at sea these molecules pump the ions out of the salmon's body and into freshwater, the same molecules remove Na and Cl from the water bringing it into the animal's blood.
