Carbon can bond with up to 4 other atoms
The similarity just lies in the structure. DNA is double-stranded, however it is twisted/helical, while the ladder does not twist. However, other than that, they are quite similar. The 2 strands (5' -> 3' and 3' -> 5') of DNA serve as the 2 vertical sides of the ladder. The base pairs of DNA are what connect the two strands together. So, in terms of the ladder, think of the steps of the ladder as the base pairs. Think each step as consisting of 2 entities joining together to make 1 big step. For example, think of a step having 2 halves down the middle. 1 half would be a guanine (base) and the other half would be a cytosine (base). Guanine is connected to the 5' --> 3' strand (Left vertical side of ladder) while the Cytosine is connected to the 3' --> 5' strand (right vertical side of ladder). These two come together at one of their ends and base pair, which appears to look like the steps on a ladder.
Answer: B
Explanation: A closed system can be defined as a system that does not allow for an exchange of matter with its surroundings.
An estuary where fresh water and ocean water mix is not a good example of a closed system because fresh water and ocean water mix out in the open and matter is exchanged.
A living single-called organism such as phytoplankton does not constitute as a closed system because in order for the phytoplankton to be considered alive it needs to interact with its surroundings i.e light from the sun so photosynthesis (converting light energy into chemical energy to be used by organism) can occur. This also happens out in the open
A river that flows into the ocean does not fit into the closed system definition. This is because a river that flows into the ocean allows for itself (matter) to mix with that of the ocean in an open space (rivermouth).
Therefore option B is the answer because it fits the definition. A chemical reaction within the deep ocean organisms that allows them to glow happens within (inside) the organism, making this system closed, hence there is no exchange of matter with surroundings.
