Answer:

A.) Uracil

B.) Deoxyribose Sugar

C.) Single Strandedness

D.) Ability of protein synthesis

DNA is a long polymer, made from repeating units called nucleotides. DNA is found in mitochondria, plastid & nucleolus. The two DNA strands are known as polynucleotides since they are composed of simpler units called nucleotides. Each nucleotide is composed of a nitrogen-containing nucleobase either guanine (G), adenine (A), thymine (T), or cytosine (C) as well as a monosaccharide sugar called deoxyribose and a phosphate group. The presence of deoxyribose sugar is characteristic of DNA.

So, the correct answer is option B.

The countercurrent multiplier is a system by which the:______.
inn [45]

Answer: Option A.

nephron loop multiplies the concentration of salts in the interstitial fluid of the kidney medulla.

Explanation:

countercurrent multiplier is a system that utilize energy that create osmotic gradients and enable reabsorption of water thereby increase concentration of urine. The countercurrent multiplier uses electrolyte pumps there by making the nephron loop increase the concentration of salts in the interstitial fluid of the kidney medulla because it allows the nephron to reabsorb alot of water and and increase the concentration of urine for excretion while at the same time using as little energy as possible.

Why do organic remains need to be in anaerobic conditions for fossil fuel formation to<br> occur?
telo118 [61]

Explanation:

fossil fuels are made from decayed plants and animals that have been converted to crude oil,coal,natural gas or heavy oils by exposure to heat and pressure

oil is a liquid hydrocarbon that is formed when a rock high in organic carbon is subjected to heat and pressure

1. breeding of individuals that have genes for two different characteristics dihybrid cross 2. a grid system used to predict pos
icang [17]
1. breeding of individuals that have genes for two different characteristics:
DIHYBRID CROSS.
We call it a dihybrid cross when we are considering a cross between two different traits.
"di" means having two traits involved (for example, trait A and trait B), the "hybrid" means that each trait will have two different alleles (for gene A: A or a; for gene B: B or b), one is dominant and the other is recessive.

2. a grid system used to predict possible combinations of genes due to random fertilization: PUNNETT SQUARE
The Punnett square is a grid system that helps us predict an outcome of a cross or a breeding experiment. We this, we can determine the probability of an offspring having a particular genotype.
This is very useful when we are considering more than one gene,  making it less confusing.

3. a condition in which both alleles are dominant: CODOMINANCE
Tere are alleles that have the capacity of dominating at the same time, and when an organism is heterozygotic, both alleles are expressed.
For example, a white chicken(WW) crossed with a black chicken (BB):  100% of the offspring being WB. With this genotype, they have black feathers and white feathers. It's not a blend of colors, but a case where both are expressing.

4. when more than two alternatives exist for a gene: MULTIPLE ALLELES
Mendel thought that only two possible alternatives could exist for a gene, but there are cases that have more than 3 possibilities. Some of those can be really popular in a population while others not so much.
This happens with rabbit's fur. They can be black, brown, grayish,
Himalayan patterning or white fur.

 5.a condition in which neither pair of alleles is dominant or recessive, so the traits blend in the phenotype: INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE
Some alleles are not completely dominant, and when that's the case the phenotype of a heterozygous organism will be a mix between the phenotypes of its homozygous parents.
For example:
plant 1: RR -red
plant 2: rr-white
By crossing this plants we will obtain 100%  of the offspring with a color mix: pink.(genotype: Rr)
Red and white are not completely dominating so it results in a blend of colors.

Hydrothermal vents pump super heated salt water into the ocean that is filled with various minerals. Because of this, there is a
pychu [463]
This is absolutely false.
There is a wide diversity of life teaming around hydrothermal vents. These communities include primary producer organisms, but instead of obtaining energy from the sun, these bacteria use a process called chemosynthesis to convert minerals and other chemicals in the water into energy. These bacteria support a wide range of other animal species, including giant tube worms, deep sea mussels, serpulid or “feather duster” worms, and vent crabs, the apex predator of the vent community.
