Answer:

28% Thymine

Explanation:

DNA molecule is made up of four nucleotides namely: Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C), and Guanine (G). These nucleotides make up the DNA molecule unevenly, however, according to Chargaff in his rule, he stated that the amount of Adenine&Thymine, Guanine& Cytosine in a DNA must be equal, which must all equate to 100% i.e. (A = T) + (G = C) = 100%

Based on this Chargaff's rule, if a DNA sample is analyzed and found to contain 22% of cytosine. This means that the amount of Guanine in that DNA sample must also be 22%.

Therefore; 22% C + 22% G = 44%

100 - 44 = 56%. This means that Adenine and Thymine will share this 56% among each other i.e. 56/2 = 28% Adenine and 28% Thymine.

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

EXERCISE

Explanation:

In an experiment, the independent variable is the variable that the experimenter changes or manipulates in order to bring about a measurable outcome.

In this case, an experiment is carried out to test the hypothesis that "exercise will affect the number of times a person can squeeze a clothespin in a certain amount of time". The experiment contained two groups (one group sits quietly before squeezing a clothespin as many times as possible and the other does 25 JUMPING JACKS before squeezing a clothespin as many times as possible).

The independent variable is the EXERCISE (jumping jacks) that was changed for each group in the experiment.
