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.

What results when a single bacterium reproduces?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

<h2>b. Two genetically identical daughter cells.</h2>

Explanation:

Bacterial reproduction:

Mainly,bacteria reproduce by binary fission. In this process the bacterium, which is a single cell, divides into two  genetically identical daughter cells. Binary fission begins when the DNA of the bacterium first replicate and becomes double ,then the rest cell organelles also duplicate in the bacterium cell, finally the bacteria divides into two genetically identical daughter cells. Both cell are similar in size, shape and genetic composition.

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.53 meters.

Explanation:

The given density of water is 1025 kg/m^3

Gauge pressure, that is, (P2 - P2) = Po/19

Here Po = 1.013 * 10^5 Pa

= 1.0.13 * 10^5 Pa / 19 = 5331.58 Pa

The change in pressure associated with the depth is given by the formula:  

P2 -P1 = ρgh  

h = P2 - P1 / ρg

h = 5331.58 Pa / 1025 kg/m^3 * 9.8 m/s^2

h = 0.53 m

Thus, the driver can swim 0.53 meters below water.
