If a DNA molecule has 24% adenine, what is the percentage of guanine in the same DNA molecule?

Biology

Answer:

26%

Explanation:

Adenine pairs with thymine.

Guanine pairs with cytosine.

If 24% of the DNA molecule is adenine, that means that there is 24% thymine. This is because they pair together so they have to be equal. That is 48% of the DNA molecule. To find the percentage of guanine, we need to minus 48% from the total 100%.

100 - 48 = 52

Then divide by 2 because you have guanine AND cytosine.

52/2 = 26

Therefore, your final answer is 26% of guanine is in the DNA molecule.

How are living organisms related
shtirl [24]

Answer:

However, now scientists can also analyze DNA to discover how closely organisms are related. Every living creature has DNA, which has a lot of inherited information about how the body builds itself. Scientists can compare the DNA of two organisms; the more similar the DNA, the more closely related the organisms.

Law Incorporation [45]

<span>Because an increase in oxytocin level increases the contractions </span>

Oxytocin can be defined as a hormone that usually acts on organs of the body which includes the uterus and breast. They can also act as a chemical messenger in the brain by controlling some important aspect of reproductive system such as lactation and childbirth. However, the positive feedback mechanism of oxytocin is that an increase in release of oxytocin will stimulate more contractions.
