What are the DNA base pairs? Need asap

Biology

Answer:

I hope i helped

Explanation:

A base pair (bp) is a fundamental unit of double-stranded nucleic acids consisting of two nucleobases bound to each other by hydrogen bonds. They form the building blocks of the DNA double helix and contribute to the folded structure of both DNA and RNA. Dictated by specific hydrogen bonding patterns, "Watson–Crick" base pairs (guanine–cytosine and adenine–thymine) allow the DNA helix to maintain a regular helical structure that is subtly dependent on its nucleotide sequence. The complementary nature of this based-paired structure provides a redundant copy of the genetic information encoded within each strand of DNA. The regular structure and data redundancy provided by the DNA double helix make DNA well suited to the storage of genetic information, while base-pairing between DNA and incoming nucleotides provides the mechanism through which DNA polymerase replicates DNA and RNA polymerase transcribes DNA into RNA. Many DNA-binding proteins can recognize specific base-pairing patterns that identify particular regulatory regions of genes.

Which organelle is responsible for wilting?
makkiz [27]

Vacuole is the answer.

Wilting is the loss of rigidity of non woody parts of plants and occurs when turgor pressure falls. 

The vacuole controls turgor pressure. Turgor pressure dictates the rigidity of the cell and is associated with the difference between the osmotic pressure inside and outside the cell.

When a plant receives adequate amounts of water, the central vacuoles of its cells swell as the liquid collects within them creating a high level of turgor pressure which helps maintain the structural integrity of the plant along with the support of the cell wall.

In the absence of enough water , central vacuoles shrink and turgor pressure is reduced  compromising the plant's rigidity so that wilting takes place.

Almost all coal used today was produced during the Carboniferous period from dead animals in the swamps.
Ann [662]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Almost all coal that is used today has its origins in the Carboniferous period. The Carboniferous period was a warm and wet one, with the majority of the land being swampy and covered with dense rainforests of ancient tree species. By the end of this period, the climate quickly changed, resulting int he collapse of the rainforests. As the trees were dying out, they were falling in the swamps, quickly being covered by the mud, so remaining largely preserved. Over time they got exposed to higher pressure and temperatures as they were getting deeper into the crust, eventually resulting in the formation of the coal.
