Which statement is FALSE about DNA and RNA?

Biology
2 answers:
egoroff_w [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct answer would be C) DNA contains the base uracil, while RNA contains the base thymine instead.

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid) are both examples of nucleic acids.

They both are the polymers of nucleotide, however, DNA contains deoxyribose sugar and RNA contains ribose sugar.

In addition, DNA contains adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine as nitrogenous bases whereas RNA contains uracil in place of thymine.

DNA usually has a double-stranded structure whereas RNA usually has a single-stranded structure.

C is false because the reverse is true.  Dna contains thymine

a mechanism that is effective in maintaining a normal glomerular blood pressure only if the systemic mean arterial pressure rema
rodikova [14]

A mechanism that is effective in maintaining a normal glomerular blood pressure only if the systemic mean arterial pressure remains between 80 and 180 mm hg is called renal autoregulation.

<h3>What is renal autoregulation?</h3>
  • Autoregulation is the inner characteristic of blood vessels present in end organs, like heart, kidney, and mind, by which they dilate or constrict in response to pressure changes, thus help to keep the blood flow generally steady.
  • Usually our body tries to regulate our blood pressure in range of 50 to 150 mm Hg.
  • Regulation of renal blood flow and glomerular blood pressure in kidneys is called renal autoregulation.
  • There are 3 mechanisms of renal blood flow namely myogenic response (MR), tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF) and third mechanism that is independent of TGF but slower than MR.

Why does darkness affect the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The correct answer would be Light independent reactions require the energy gathered in the thylakoids.

Photosynthesis can divided into two sub-processes or reactions:

Light-dependent reaction: It converts solar energy into chemical energy that is, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH with the help of photolysisis of water. It takes place in thyllakoid membrane of the chloroplast.

Light-independent reaction: It fixes carbon obtained from carbon dioxide into the food or glucose with the help of enzyme RuBisCO (Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase).

It takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast and does not require the involvement of light however, it requires the products (ATP and NADPH) of the light reaction.

Fixation of 1 molecule of glucose requires 6 molecules of carbon dioxide, 9 molecules of ATP and 6 molecules of NADPH.

So, darkness indirectly affects the light-independent reaction.
