Answer:

Genome, chromosomes, and genes are all different DNA structures related to each other.

Explanation:

  The genome is the set of hereditary material of an organism, the sequence of nucleotides that specify the genetic instructions for its development and functioning and that are transmitted from generation to generation, from parents to children.

  The genome is organized into chromosomes, chromosomes are X-shaped supercoiled DNA structures. Each species has a characteristic number of chromosomes. In the human species each somatic cell has 22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes and one pair of sexual chromosomes (X and Y).

  A gene is a unit of DNA information that encodes a functional product, such as proteins.  Genes represent approximately 1.5% of the genome. Each gene have a location within the chromosomes called locus.

Compare and contrast two of the cycles of matter
Akimi4 [234]
The two cycles of the matter are the carbon and nitrogen cycle. Both of them are biogeochemical cycles, it means that the chemicals spend a portion of the cycle in living things and non-living things. They are also common in that they both recycle nutrients that are essential to all organisms. 

They are different in the manner that they cycle. Nitrogen is huge, 78% of the air around us is nitrogen. It cannot be used by plants or animals. Once the nitrogen is used by the plant and make its way to the animal, it can be released to decomposition. 

Carbon has no requirement in processing by bacteria prior to plants and animals being able to use. Plants take carbon dioxide and make it sugar, animals eat the sugar. Some of it is released carbon dioxide that we exhale.

<em>I believe that both the Bat and Humans have the most recent common ancestor. The reason I say this is because both diagrams show a wrist and arm-like structure. Also, they both hold a similar quality of fingers.</em>
