Answer:

The correct answer would be B) The complementary base pair rules.

DNA serves as the genetic material in most of the living organisms and is transmitted from parents to their offspring.

It is like blue print of the cell which contains all the necessary information required for the functioning and regulation of cell in the form of nucleotide sequences.

Generally, DNA consists of two strands which are complementary in nature i.e. purine base pair with its specific pyrimidine (adenine always base pair with thymine and guanine always base pair with cytosine).

This property of DNA is of utmost importance in the process of DNA replication as daughter DNA strand is formed on the basis of complementary base pair of the template strand.

It ensures that correct DNA sequence is produced for transmission to the offspring or daughter cell.

What is the density of a liquid that has a mass of 5 g and a volume of 10ml?
Sonja [21]

Answer:0.5 g/cm

Explanation:

calculate the density : we'll use the formula below

density = volume over mass

Usually, density will have units of  

g

m

L

when dealing with a liquid or units of

.

The volume can have units of  

m

L

or  

c

Kaylis [27]
The answer is <em>A.) You have antibodies that already recognize the virus</em>

Viruses and diseases are always changing. When we get sick with say the flu, a virus, or the cold of sorts, our body attacks it until it fights off the disease. You can't get sick from the same strand of sickness because once your body defeats the virus, it knows how to protect the body from it because of the antibodies, so the virus ends up evolving to get past your immune system again.

I hope this helped! Have a wonderful day :)
