Answer:

The correct answer is - option B.

Explanation:

Greenstick fractures are the type of fractures where one side of the cortex is intact and flexed while the other side is fractured. This type of fracture known as the incomplete fracture,

If any fracture have two or more lines of fracture it is called as Comminuted fractures. Impacted fractures have one segment on other. Due to the performing same activity again and again stress fracture occures that is characterized by failure of one cortical bone.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

Analyze the data about nitrogenous base content of DNA from various species. Percentages of Bases in Five Organisms Source of DN
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

When analyzing data on the nitrogenous base content of the DNA of various species, the claims are supported by the data:

  • <em>In any one species, the amount of adenine closely approximates that of thymine.  </em>
  • <em>In any one species, the amount of guanine closely approximates that of cytosine.  </em>
  • <em>The amounts of A, T, G, and C in DNA varies from species to species. </em>

<em>(options A, B and D)</em>

Explanation:

Organizing the data has to:

<u>Source of DNA      A            T            G            C </u>

Streptococcus    29.8       31.6        20.5       18.0

Yeast                   31.3        32.9       18.7         17.1

Herring                27.8       27.5       22.2       22.6

Human                30.9       29.4       19.9        19.8

E. Coli                  24.7       23.6        26.0      25.7

DNA is the molecule that contains the genetic information of each species, formed by sequences of nitrogenous bases Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine.

Since Adenine and Thymine -as well as Cytosine and Guanina- are complementary, the percentage of them will be very similar in each DNA molecule.

The genetic information -which determines the physical and functional characteristics of each organism- is encoded in the DNA and is different for each species, so the percentages of nitrogenous bases vary from species to species.

Which of the following is NOT true about the digestive system of annelids?
lapo4ka [179]
Yes I think you are right. It does not contain setae for food to travel to the anus. But it's something else that develops the food into poop and travels through anus

Hope this helps :)

The Precambrian eon is separated from the Phanerozoic eon in the fossil record because of
Usimov [2.4K]

The Precambrian eon is separated from the Phanerozoic eon in the fossil record because of the sudden appearance of organisms.

Explanation:

Precambrian eon is the initial existence on earth that can be predicted by the study of rocks and remaining of fossils. It has been seen as the existence of skeleton in this era, before this era no such things has been observed, even the development of sexual reproduction.

The Phanerozoic era comes after the Precambrian era, more advanced kinds of fossils of animals had been observed in this era.  Phanerozoic era period of life on earth. Large organisms sudden appearance are seen in the Phanerozoic era i.e. First dinosaurs, mammals, fishes, angiosperms,first vertebrates etc.
