Answer: The correct answer is D) deoxyribose, a nitrogen base, a phosphate group.

DNA ( deoxyribonucleic acid) is made up of small units called nucleotide ( monomer of DNA). A nucleotide of DNA consists of three smaller molecules that is a nitogenous base (adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine), deoxyribose sugar ( 5 -carbon sugar) and a phosphate group. Nitrogenous base is joined to sugar through glycosidic bond whereas phosphate group is joined to sugar via ester bond.

Nucleotides are joined together through phosphodiester bond and form large molecule of DNA.

Natalija [7]

Answer:

During the night the water releases it's heat much slower causing the air over the water to be warmer than the air over the land. This ends up working the same as the sea breeze only this time the lower pressure is over the sea and the air then moves from the land.

In two or more sentences, analyze why internal fertilization is more efficient than external fertilization?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Although more offsprings are produced by the process of external fertilization but the process of internal fertilization is more efficient as compared to external fertilization. This is because, in external fertilization, it is more difficult for the sperm to find the egg and fertilize it. Even after fertilization, it might be that the zygote gets eaten up by a predator. There are none such risks in internal fertilization. The zygote is protected during the internal fertilization which makes this process more efficient.
