Answer:

90 Thymine bases

Explanation:

Chargaff's rules states that in the DNA of any organism, the amount of purine and pyrimidine bases must be in a 1:1 ratio. This means that the amount of Adenine and Guanine bases (purines) should be equal with their complementary pairs of Thymine and Cytosine bases respectively (pyrimidines). (A = T) + (G = C) = 100

Hence, according to this question, if there are 60 cytosine bases, this means that there will be 60 Guanine bases. 60 C + 60 G = 120 pyrimidines

300 total bases - 120 pyrimidine bases = 180 purine bases.

180/2 = 90 equal bases of Adenine and Thymine. Hence, Thymine bases will be 90.

Answer: In Galileo’s time, what was considered the “center of everything”? The Earth! All of the planets and even the Sun went around “us”. Of course, when Galileo saw the moons of Jupiter passing in front of the planet, and disappearing to show up again, it was clear to him that these moons went around Jupiter like our moon goes ‘round the Earth.

That did not set well with the Beliefs of the day, and that is at least one answer!

Classify the four reactions that your group analyzed today as being either endothermic or exothermic
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
Chemical reactions are basically divided into two major classes depending on whether the reaction lose energy or gain energy from the environment during the course of the reaction. The two classes of reaction are exothermic and endothermic reaction.
An exothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which the reaction system lose energy to the environment and thus, the energy content of the reactants is more than that of the product formed. Because of this, the enthapyl change of an exothermic reaction is always negative. 
An endothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which the reaction system absorb energy from the environment. Thus, the energy contents of the products is always higher than that of the reactants and the enthapyl change of the reaction is always positive. During the course of the reaction, the reaction container is usually cold to the touch because energy is been absorbed from the environment.

Answer:

He is probably studying <u>Geomorphology. </u>

Explanation:

Geology is the science that studies the composition, structure, dynamics, and history of planet Earth, the processes by which it has evolved including everything that has to do with its natural resources and with this the processes that affect the surface, and therefore, the environment.

Geomorphology is a branch of geosciences, more specifically geography and geology. One of his most interesting models explains the ways in which the earth's surface is the result of a consistent dynamic balance.
