lesya [120]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

by the nitrocellulose membrane filter method. (more info below)

Explanation:

Genetic relationship between mycoplasma as determined by nucleic acid homology.  DNA from each of the mycoplasma isolates tested was reacted separately by complementary RNA synthesized with homologous or heterologous DNA as a primer. The amount of DNA-RNA hybrids formed was tested using the method of the nitrocellulose membrane filter.

hope this helped!

How many possible outcomes exist when two fair coins are flipped and a three-section spinner is spin??
Ganezh [65]
9 possible outcomes.

1. There are two coins being flipped.
Possibilities:
HH (two heads) HT (heads and tails) TT (two tails)

There are three sides to the spinner
Possibilities:
Side 1     Side 2    Side 3

Since there are 3 possibilities for each, multiply them together
So, 3*3 which equals 9 possibilities

What hypothesis did Darwin investigate by studying the breeding of pigeons with distinctive traits?
siniylev [52]

Answer:

New species can appear gradually through small changes in an ancestral species.

Explanation:

The new species that appear are due to hereditary variations that occur in a population. The adaptive variations are said to confer a selective advantage to organisms possessing them. The result of variations is that well adapted individuals are able to survive and reach the reproductive age and pass over their favourable characteristics to their offspring.

What happens in your body to cause you to get a fever?
andriy [413]

The presence of a fever is usually related to stimulation of the body's immune response. Fever can support the immune system's attempt to gain advantage over infectious agents, such as viruses and bacteria, and it makes the body less favorable as a host for replicating viruses and bacteria, which are temperature sensitive. Infectious agents are not the only causes of fever, however. Amphetamine abuse and alcohol withdrawal can both elicit high temperatures, for example. And environmental fevers--such as those associated with heat stroke and related illnesses--can also occur.

The hypothalamus, which sits at the base of the brain, acts as the body's thermostat. It is triggered by floating biochemical substances called pyrogens, which flow from sites where the immune system has identified potential trouble to the hypothalamus via the bloodstream. Some pyrogens are produced by body tissue; many pathogens also produce pyrogens. When the hypothalamus detects them, it tells the body to generate and retain more heat, thus producing a fever. Children typically get higher and quicker fevers, reflecting the effects of the pyrogens upon an inexperienced immune system.

What parts of a nucleotide make up the backbone of a nucleic acid? pairs of nitrogen bases pairs of sugars sugar and nitrogen ba
mixer [17]
A DNA molecule consists of two strands of nucleotides twisted together to form a double helix. The sugar-phosphate backbone is found on the outside of this helix and the bases are found braching towards the middle. Hydrogen bonds join the thenitrogenous bases and hold the two strands together.

Therefore your answer is sugar and phosphate.
