Answer:

The base adenine pairs with thymine, and the base cytosine pairs with guanine.

Explanation:

From Chargaff's discovery, which was that the DNA of any given species contains equal amounts of adenine and thymine, and equal amounts of cytosine and guanine, we can deduce that if there is an equal amount of two bases in DNA, those two bases must pair together. From this information, we can then go on to say that since there are equal amounts of adenine and thymine, they pair together, and since there are equal amounts of cytosine and guanine, they also pair together.

When someone “jumps to conclusions,” beck would say that he or she is suffering from a distortion in thought called arbitrary inference.

Arbitrary inference<span> is a classic tenet of rational therapy which is created by Aaron T. Beck in 1979. It is an act in which you make a decision or draw a conclusion from any situation without any evidence.</span>

How is the body of a molluscs organized
a_sh-v [17]

Bodies of molluscs are subdivided into three parts:

*The head that contains the sensory organs and the mouth that contains the radula and odontophores (absent in bivalves).

*The foot is a muscular organ, typical of molluscs, intended for locomotion. It has different shapes depending on the species.

*The visceral mass, as the name suggests, contains the viscera. It is contained in a thin tunic called the coat. It is the mantle that secretes the shell of most molluscs, which serves as protection and / or skeleton and / or regulator of flotation.

Between the mantle and the visceral mass, the pallial rim constitutes a pallial cavity that protects the respiratory organs, and where the metanephridia (excretory organs), the intestine and the genital ducts open.
