<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

S waves travel through solids or very dense, glassy liquids. P waves travel through solids, liquids, and gasses.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>P-waves and S-waves are body waves that propagate through the planet.</u> P-waves are the fastest waves created by an earthquake. They travel through the Earth’s interior and can pass through both solid and molten rock.
  • <u>P-waves</u> are compression waves that apply a force in the direction of propagation.
  • <u>S waves</u> are seismic body waves that shakes the ground back and forth perpendicular to the direction the wave is moving. S waves propagate more slowly through the earth as compared to compressional waves and arrive second.

7. Adenine (A), Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine are the four nitrogenous bases in DNA.

8. In DNA Cytosine always forms hydrogen bonds with guanine.

9. The sequence of nucleotides carries the genetic information of an organism.

10. The process of replication produces a new copy of an organism's genetic information which is passed on to a new cell.

11. The double-coiled shape of DNA is called a double helix

Explanation:

There are four nitrogenous bases in the DNA of an organism. Two of the bases are pyrimidines eg: Thymine and cytosine while 2 of the bases are purine  bases namely adenine and guanine. The purine of one strand forms a hydrogen bond with pyrimidine of the parallel strand of DNA.

The bases are present in nucleoplasm as dNMPs and in DNA they are present as dNTPs (deoxyribonucleotide triphosphate). During replication, these dNMPS keeps on bonding with other dNMPs in the presence of ATP and as DNA Polymerase, ligase topoisomerase etc. These nucleotides form the DNA strands and they are responsible for coding proteins. The sequence of DNA is also termed as gene.

The double helix structure of DNA was given by Watson and Crick. Each strand has an alternative backbone of sugar and phosphate group. The four bases bonds with glycosidic and phosphodiester bonds with sugar and phosphoric acid.

Answer:

- The six essential nutrients are vitamins, minerals, protein, fats, water, and carbohydrates.

-The digestive system converts the foods we eat into their simplest forms, like glucose, amino acids or fatty acids.

- The function of the excretory system to remove wastes from the body.

-The organs of the urinary system include the kidneys, renal pelvis, ureters, bladder and urethra.

-The excretory system works with the endocrine system to help maintain homeostasis. Chemical messengers called hormones signal the kidneys to filter more or less water or salt, depending on the levels of water and salt in the body.
