Abundance of the different bases in the human genome. Results on the human genome published in Science (Science 291:1304-1350 [2

001]) indicate that the haploid human genome consists of 2.91 gigabase pairs (2.91 x 109 base pairs) and that 27% of the bases in human DNA are A. Calculate the number of A, T, G, and C residues in a typical human cell.

Answer:

A typical Human Cells=3.1428*10^9 residues.

T typical Human Cells=3.1428*10^9 residues.

G typical Human cells=2.6772*10^{9} residues.

C typical Human cells=2.6772*10^{9} residues.

Explanation:

Given:

Number of human genome in pairs=2.91*10^9 base pair

Number of Human genome single bases=2*2.91*10^{9} =5.82*10^{9} bases

We know that human genome are diploid, Total Human genomes will bases will be 2* 5.82*10^{9}=1.164*10^{10} bases

Since A is 27%:

A typical Human cells=0.27*1.164*10^{10}

A typical Human Cells=3.1428*10^9 residues.

The Number of T and A residues are same in human genome. So,

T typical Human cells=3.1428*10^9 residues.

Since A and T combined form 54% of human genome then G and C form 46% combined and 23% each.

G typical Human cells=0.23*1.164*10^{10}

G typical Human cells=2.6772*10^{9} residues.

The Number of G and C residues are same in human genome. So,

C typical Human cells=2.6772*10^{9} residues.

How many chromosomes are in the daughter cells after meiosis is completed?
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

<u>23</u> chromosomes

Explanation:

Each daughter cell <u>will have half of the original 46 chromosomes</u>, or 23 chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of 2 sister chromatids. The daughter cells now move in to the third and final phase of meiosis: meiosis II.

Fully explain how cellular respiration is a chemical process whereby the bonds of food molecules and oxygen molecules are broken
Marianna [84]
Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose and produces ATP. The stages of cellular respiration include glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid or Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

During cellular respiration, a glucose molecule is gradually broken down into carbon dioxide and water. Along the way, some ATP is produced directly in the reactions that transform glucose. Much more ATP, however, is produced later in a process called oxidative phosphorylation. Oxidative phosphorylation is powered by the movement of electrons through the electron transport chain, a series of proteins embedded in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion.
These electrons come originally from glucose and are shuttled to the electron transport chain when they gain electrons.


As electrons move down the chain, energy is released and used to pump protons out of the matrix, forming a gradient. Protons flow back into the matrix through an enzyme called ATP synthase, making ATP. At the end of the electron transport chain, oxygen accepts electrons and takes up protons to form water. Glycolysis can take place without oxygen in a process called fermentation. The other three stages of cellular respiration—pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation—require oxygen in order to occur. Only oxidative phosphorylation uses oxygen directly, but the other two stages can't run without oxidative phosphorylation.).

Which is the first step to occur during the process of replication
PolarNik [594]
The first step of DNA replication is the separation of the two DNA strands to create a replication bubble. DNA Helicase is what breaks the hydrogen bonds joining the two strands, allowing it to unravel.
