Which of these scientists is best known for his idea that characteristics an individual gains in its lifetime could be passed on
Anna [14]
This was Lamarck's idea. Here's an example: Suppose giraffes originally had short necks that they stretched to reach high-up leaves in the trees. This continuous stretching of the neck was passed onto offspring, who as a result had slightly longer necks. This continued for multiple generations until we get today's long-necked giraffe. Lamarck was on to something (that something being evolution by natural selection, which Darwin discovered), but his theory wasn't completely correct since organisms can only pass on genes (segments of DNA that code for a characteristic or function) to their offspring. Since "stretching" would not code into DNA, it wouldn't be passed onto offspring, proving Lamarck's theory incorrect.

If the sequence of one strand on DNA is CTA GCT CCA, what is the<br> complementary strand? *
vekshin1

Answer:

If the sequence of one strand on DNA is CTA GCT CCA,  the complementary strand is GAT CGA GGT.

Explanation:

The DNA molecule has four nitrogenous bases in its structure, two purines —adenine and guanine— and two pyrimidines, cytosine and thymine.

The two DNA strands are linked by hydrogen bonds established between their complementary nitrogenous bases, where a purine is complemented by a pyrimidine.

In the case of DNA, adenine is complemented by thymine and cytosine is complemented by guanine:

<em>A=T</em>

<em>C≡G</em>

In the sequence belonging to a DNA strand CTA GCT CCA, the strand that is complementary would be GAT CGA GGT.

The genetic code is essentially the same for all organisms. From this, one can logically assume all of the following EXCEPT: A)
GuDViN [60]

Answer: DNA was the first genetic material.

Explanation:

The genetic code is essentially the same in all the organism. This states that the similar organism can have similar genes in them that codes for the similar proteins hence, called as similar organism.

The genetic material is chemically made of nucleotide which is either being synthesized in the body or being obtained from the environment similar to that of amino acids.

If the genetic code is same one organism descend from the other organism.But these statement does not supports that DNA was the first genetic material to found in living beings.
