Answer:

The correct answer is -

1. Adenine - 10%

2. A-T and C-G always in DNA.

Explanation:

1. The total amount of all nitrogenous bases are equally 100% and which includes an equal amount of C and G and an equal amount of A and T in the DNA molecule.

So, Cytosine = 40%, Guanine= 40%

total = 80%

therefore, the A and thymine would be - 100 - 80 = 20

A+T = 20

A= 10, and, T = 10%

2. The complementary base pairing rule explains that DNA base pairs are Adenine always binds with thymine and cytosine bind with guanine only. Purine binds with pyrimidine always except - A-C or G- T.

The seven-spotted cockroach is a nocturnal species that burrows under leaf litter during the day.
djyliett [7]

Answer: C. is less likely to be eaten by a predator.

Explanation:

The adult seven-spotted cockroach is the prey of various other insects including beetles so mimicking the pattern of a beetle would send a message that it is a beetle and because the chemical irritant that the beetle has makes it get avoided by others, the cockroach gets avoided by other insects too who don't want to be sprayed.

Of course this does not always work but it works for the most part and ensures the cockroach's survival.

What is the shortest period in which a population of darwin's finches can evolve?
Studentka2010 [4]
Darwin's finches are a gathering of around fifteen types of passerine winged animals. They are outstanding for their exceptional decent variety in nose frame and capacity. They are regularly named the subfamily Geospizinae or tribe Geospizini. 
After an immense dry spell, the greater hooked finches lived and the littler ones passed on. So two years after the fact finches har mouths that were somewhat greater.
