Answer:

The theory is supported by all the available observations and data.

Explanation:

The scientific community will accept a theory when a sufficient body of evidence supports it. This includes experiments that refute other potential theories. Experiments should also be carried out that attempt to disprove the theory but cannot.

It should not matter who proposed the theory or who supports it, and instead should entirely be based on the quality and abundance of data supporting it.

A forensic scientist is trying to find out the number of adenine in the DNA sample that he obtained from a crime scene.
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

The right answer is The number of adenine will be equal to the number of thymine.

Chargaff's rules indicate that the DNA of any cell or organism must have a ratio of 1 to 1 between purine bases and pyrimidine bases and, more specifically, that the amount of guanine is equal to the amount cytosine, and that the amount of adenine is equal to the amount of thymine. This trend is found in both strands of DNA.

Which of the following is a factor that determines the rate of impulse propagation, or conduction velocity, along an axon?a) len
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

c) degree of myelination of the axon

Explanation:

Axon conduction velocity can be defined as the speed at which an electrochemical impulse propagates down an axon.

Factors that determines the rate of conduction velocity are:

  • axon diameter-larger diameter axons have a higher conduction velocity
  • sheeth-a myelin sheath increases the rate of impulse propagatio

Different types of neurons will have different speed of propagation because of their different properties and because different types of information are sent.
