Answer:

480 nucleotides comprise this molecule of dna

Explanation:

According to Chargaff rule,

  •        Adenine is paired with thymine
  •        Cytosine is paired with guanine

Given in the question

Adenine residue = 120

Cytosine residue = 120

So, [A] = [T]

i.e. [A =120] = [T=120]

again, [C] = [G]

i.e. [C=120] = [G=120]

hence, total number of nucleotides present

=> [A] + [T] + [C] + [G]

=> 120 + 120 +120 +120

=> 480.

Based on the information in Graph 1, explain the relationships between shell color, presence of banding, and habitat. Use the
Sophie [7]

There is a direct relationship between shell color, presence of banding, and habitat because they greatly affect each other in various ways.

<h3>Relationship between shell color, presence of banding, and habitat </h3>

Shell colour shows stronger and more consistent variation with habitat than do banding patterns. Yellow colour shells are present at higher frequencies in open habitats than in woods or closed habitats.

While on the other hand, banding serve as camouflage to protect the organism from bird predators so we can conclude that there is a direct relationship between shell color, presence of banding, and habitat.

How do mountains form
liraira [26]
Movements of tectonic plates create volcanoes along the plate boundaries, which erupt and form mountains. A volcanic arc system is a series of volcanoes that form near a subduction zone where the crust of a sinking oceanic plate melts.

List two main functions of the cell membrane
qaws [65]

Answer: heres the 3 main functions.

Explanation:

membranes have three primary functions 1) they keep toxic substances out of the cell 2) they contain receptors and channels that allow specific molecules, such as ions, nutrients, wastes, and metabolic products, that mediate cellular and extracellular activities to pass between organelles and between the cell and the outside environment and 3) they separate vital but incompatible metabolic processes conducted within organelles.

Answer:

The correct option is A

Explanation:

To determine if water temperature has an effect on weathering of sedimentary rocks, different number (perhaps three) of identical sedimentary rocks should be obtained and then individually placed in different water temperatures (with at least one of the "water volumes" used for each having a temperature close to the room temperature so as to be used as the control).

Thus, each of the identical sedimentary rock can be broken into three and placed individually; as in one part of the rock in 20 °C of water (control), another part of the rock in 40 °C and another in 60 °C of water.

This above procedure should be repeated for the remaining two other identical sedimentary rock to confirm if there is any effect.
