Answer:

tRNA.

Explanation:

Two main types of nucleic acid present in the organism are DNA and RNA. DNA is present as genetic material in all the organisms except some viruses. RNA is present as genetic material in some viruses only.

The nucleic acid that has been purified contains uracil and bound to an amino acid. This nucleic acid is tRNA or transfer RNA as RNA contains uracil instead of thymine and only tRNA can bound covelently with amino acid. tRNA contains anticodon specific for mRNA on its structure that forms a specific amino acid.

Thus, the correct answer is option (4).

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Nitrogen can be transformed into a utilizable form like NO2 by the fixation process.

Explanation:

The conversion of nitrogen into various chemical forms is described through the Nitrogen cycle.  The nitrogen of atmosphere is less usable. However, it can be made usable by various interactions of complex genes that allow nitrogen conversion by different organisms.

One such interactive process is of Fixation. In this method, nitrogen is modified into ammonia by symbiotic microorganism. They have the enzyme called nitrogenase which makes the bond of hydrogen with nitrogen to make ammonia.
