Answer:

Thymine always pairs with adenine.

Explanation:

In DNA there are four types of nucleotides that differ by the nitrogen base they have: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C) and thymine (T). These molecules are placed one behind the other and form a very long chain. DNA molecule is formed by two long polynucleotide chains, the two chains are complementary but not identical, that is, the adenine nucleotides of one chain pair with the thymine nucleotides of the other chain, that is, the adenine bases found in a strand interact with the thymine bases of the opposite strand, thus forming the double helix of the DNA.

If Avery had observed transformation using only the extracts containing degraded DNA, degraded RNA, and degraded protein, but NO

Leokris [45]

Answer:

Polysaccharides are the genetic material.

Explanation:

Avery did not observe transformation using the extracts containing degraded DNA. On the other hand, extracts with degraded RNA, proteins, and polysaccharides exhibited transformation. Therefore, he concluded that DNA is the genetic material responsible for transformation. If he would have observed the process of transformation using extracts containing degraded DNA but not with degraded polysaccharides, he might have concluded that "polysaccharides were the genetic material responsible for the process of transformation."
