Answer:
(a) 21% of the human genome is comprised of G.
(b) 29% of the human genome is comprised of T.
(c) 29% of the human genome is comprised of A.
Explanation:
According to Chargaff's rule, a DNA molecule has the same amount of pyrimidines (T and C) as purines (A and G), and G pairs with C and A pairs with T.
If 21% of the genome contains C, then 21% also contains G.
Therefore 21% + 21% = 42% of the genome is comprised of G+C.
The other 58% is comprised of A+T, and because they pair with each other, 29% will correspond to A and 29% will correspond to T,
Answer:
A. Transport of materials in xylem
Xylem tissue helps in the transport of water and minerals
Water is transported upwards from roots to aerial parts of plants
Transport in xylem requires physical forces such as transpiration pull.
B. Transport of materials in phloem
Phloem tissue helps in the transport of food.
Transport of food in phloem requires energy in the form of ATP.
Food is transported in both upward and downward directions.
The microbiome refers to the collection of genomes from all the microorganisms in the environment. Microbiota, on the other hand, usually refers to microorganisms that are found within a specific environment. Microbiota can refer to all the microorganisms found in an environment, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
