Answer:

The phrase that plants are called green factories because they perform the process of photosynthesis.

Green plants use chlorophyll, carbon dioxide and sunlight to make food by the help of photosynthesis.

This is the reason green plants are called as Producers.

They are called factories as they produce food to be consumed by the other organism.

Chargaff's Rule. If there is 20% Adenine in the cell, what is the percentage of Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine found in the same
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

A= 20%

G= 30%

T= 20%

C= 30%

Explanation:

Recall that the sum of all nitrogenous bases in the DNA nucleotide is equal to 100%. And specific base pairings of Adenine to Thymine (A=T), and Cytosine to Guanine (C=G) must be equal.

So, the percentage of Adenine equal thymine, and that of cytosine equals guanine.

Now, A + T + C + G = 100%

So, if Adenine makes up 20% of the DNA nucleotides, Thymine is also 20%.

Then, 20% + 20% + C + G = 100%

40% + C + G = 100%

C + G = 100% - 40% = 60%

So, divide 60% by 2 to obtain the individual percentage of cytosine and guanine. Each will take 30%

Finally, A= 20%; G= 30%; T= 20%; C= 30%

How does a liver cell respond to insulin
Elanso [62]

Answer:

Insulin stimulates the liver to store glucose in the form of glycogen. A large fraction of glucose absorbed from the small intestine is immediately taken up by hepatocytes, which convert it into the storage polymer glycogen. Insulin has several effects in liver which stimulate glycogen synthesis.
