Answer;

A monomer made up of a nitrogenous base, a five-carbon sugar, and a phosphate group bonded together.

Explanation;

-Nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA are made up of chains of many repeating units called nucleotides. Nucleotides are made up of a 5-carbon sugar(deoxyribose),a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base bound to the sugar . Adenine makes two bonds with Thyamine whereas Cytosine makes three bonds with Guanine.

-The DNA double helix is held together by two types of bonds, covalent and hydrogen. Covalent bonds occur within each linear strand and strongly bond the bases sugars, and phosphate groups.  Hydrogen bonds occur between the two strands and involve a base from one strand with a base from the second in complementary pairing. These hydrogen bonds are individually weak but collectively quite strong.

Can someone help with the labels for this ?
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Refer to the attached image for correct labeling.

Explanation:

  • The diagram is of a plant cell and its organelles.
  • The nucleus houses the genetic material and controls all life processes.
  • A plant cell contains one large vacuole in the center that stores water and nutrients.
  • Chloroplast is the site for photosynthesis. It captures light and utilizes it and carbondioxide to produce glucose.
  • Mitochondria are called the power house of the cell. Through a process called cellular respiration, they break down the glucose produced in photosynthesis into energy compounds such as ATP as well as oxygen and water.
  • The endoplasmic reticulum is the site for protein sysnthesis. It contains two parts: the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) which contains ribosomes that synthesize proteins and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) which packages the proteins into transport vesicles.
  • The nucleus contains the nucleolus that is the site for ribosome assembly.
  • The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that covers the cell and controls cellular transport.
  • The cell wall is a hard, outer covering that protects the cell and maintains its structure and shape.

A swimmer sprints a short distance for a competition. The swimmer is not able to take in enough oxygen to make the ATP needed fo
Reptile [31]

When the swimmer is unable to take in enough oxygen for the sprint, the ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) will be compromised. In such conditions, the body will use anaerobic respiration to produce the ATP. Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen. It used the electron acceptors in place of the oxygen in the respiratory cycle. The amount of the ATP produced is, however, less in anaerobic respiration.

Hence, the answer is 'Option C - Anaerobic respiration would be used to produce small amounts of ATP in the absence of oxygen'.

What are formed through long periods of chemical weathering and erosion by water.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Sometimes, chemical weathering dissolves large portions of limestone or other rock on the surface of the Earth to form a landscape called karst. In these areas, the surface rock is pockmarked with holes, sinkholes, and caves. The water transforms anhydrite into gypsum, one of the most common minerals on Earth.
