polet [3.4K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

6 thymine, 4 guanine. 4 cytosine

Explanation:

Adenine pairs with thymine, so you need 6 of each

Cytosine matches with guanine, but the total of nucleotides is 20, so

6(adenine)+6(thymine)=12

20-12=8

8= 4(guanine)+4(cytosine)

Using at least three sentences, describe the process of weathering, and explain how it can happen physically or
hoa [83]

Answer: Chemical weathering decomposes or decays rocks and minerals. An example of this is water and limestone. Organic weathering happens when plant break up rocks. One the rock has been weakened and broken up it is ready for Erosion. This happens when rocks are picked up and move usually by water. Mechanical weathering breaks up rocks, this usually happens when water gets into cracks, freezes and expands the rock

Group the following into the appropriate range of measurement.
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Hydrogen atom & glucose molecule --- atomic.

Herpesvirus, DNA --- ultramicroscopic.

Protozoan, Rickettsia - microscopic.

Roundworm and algae --- macroscopic

Explanation:

1) Hydrogen atom & glucose molecule --- atomic.

The atomic size level, which interacts with atoms as well as small molecules, is much lower than the ultramicroscopic range.

2) Herpesvirus, DNA --- ultramicroscopic.

Ultramicroscopic particles are very tiny structures that cannot be seen using a conventional optical microscope, necessitating the use of an electron microscope. Viruses and DNA falls into this group since they are much smaller than tiny species like bacteria.

3) Protozoan, Rickettsia - microscopic.

Microscopic species are much smaller than macroscopic organisms because they cannot be observed by the naked human eye and must be viewed through a microscope. The size range for microscopic particles is ( 10^3  \ \ to  \ \ 10^{10}), which contains protozoans and Rickettsia (a gram-negative, non-motile bacteria genus).

4) Roundworm and algae --- macroscopic

Naked eyes can see macroscopic organisms; for example, several types of circular worms and algae can be seen by them.
