Answer:

With respect to the composition of DNA, in an analysis it can be found that the proportions of nucleotides are A + C = G + T (option a).

Explanation:

The proportion of nucleotides in a DNA molecule can be established according to the sequence of these nucleotides on both complementary strands, since the purinic bases of one strand are complemented by the pyrimidinic bases of another:

  • <em>Adenine is complemented with Thymine A=T</em>
  • <em>Guanine is complemented with Cytosine G=C</em>

From this we can deduce that in a DNA molecule with two chains there will be the same amount of adenine and thymine, as well as the same number of guanine with respect to cytosine, so:

<em>     A + C = G + T</em>

An example of this would be a known DNA molecule (hypothetical), with 5 molecules of Adenine and 7 molecules of Guanine. In this case there are 5 Thymines, complementary with Adenine, and 7 Cytosines like Guanine:

<em>     A + C = G + T</em>

<em>     5 + 7 = 7 + 5</em>

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Uracil replaces thymine so when you translate it you put each bases pair so for RNA uracil would replace adenine and guanine would replace cytosine.

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Co-dominance because he expresses both of the alleles simultaneously

Explanation:

The ABO blood group system is used by humans. This blood group type is controlled by multiple alleles. Alleles A and B are both dominant over allele O but are co-dominant. Co-dominance is a type of inheritance pattern in which two alleles of a gene both express themselves i.e. neither is recessive.

This is the case of this family whose parents have a genotype of AO (blood type A) and BO (blood type B) respectively. The children have blood types A, B, and AB. However, the child with genotype AB possesses both the A and B allele, which are both expressed in his blood group (phenotype), hence, it can be said that the child is exhibiting CO-DOMINANCE for the blood group trait.
