6 0

Explanation:

You have 20% of adenine. If you have 20% of adenine than you have 20% of thymine, because the amount of adenine and thymine is equal. 20% plus 20% is 40% of adennine and thymine. From 100% DNA bases subtract 40% and you will get 60%. Then divide this by 2 and you will get 30%. 30% of guanine and 30% of cytosine, because their amounts are equal in the DNA stand.

Because it has no introns, researchers prefer to use ____ when working with human genes.

pochemuha

The correct answer is d: cDNA.
<span>cDNA or complementary DNA is DNA synthesized usually from messenger RNA (mRNA) by the enzyme reverse transcriptase. Because this molecule is from mRNA it contains only exons. cDNA is also produced naturally by retroviruses, for example, HIV virus.</span>

Name a land animal that is sessile. Why would this

TEA [102]

Scale insects mature as sessile.
Is a disadvantage because sessile means nonmotile, which means food has to be readily there for them which it's just not bc land animals typically have to keep moving to survive
