A double-stranded piece of alien nucleic acid has been isolated. Each individual strand of the nucleic acid is 160 nucleotides l

ong; for a total of 320 nucleotides in the isolated piece of nucleic acid. An initial analysis shows that of the 320 nucleotides, 95 contain the base uracil.1. How many nucleotides containing the base isoAdenine (iA) would be found in the isolated piece of double-stranded nucleic acid?a. 0b. 95c. 190d. 225e. cannot be determined2. How many nucleotides in the piece of alien DNA would contain the base adenine?a. 40b. 70c. 95d. 140e. cannot be determined

Answer:

95 isoadenine bases;  adenine bases cannot be determined

Explanation:

In Alien DNA;

  • iA  complementary with U
  • iT  complementary with A
  • bG complementary with iC
  1. So if there were 95 nucleotide that contain the uracil then there should also be 95 isoadenine.
  2. Adenine binds with isothymine in alien DNA and there are no information of  isothymine or other bG/iC bases is given, so we cannot determine the adenine bases.

the galapagos tortoise are biodiverse. tortoises in a more barren area have a flat shell and long neck to help grasp the sparse
natima [27]

Answer:

<em>This is an example of natural selection (adaptation).</em>

Explanation:

Natural selection tends to favor those organisms which are better adapted to live in an environment.

As tortoises having flat shell and long neck were better adapted to live in barren area, hence through natural selection those organisms were favored in such an ecosystem.

As tortoises that lived on the vegetative lands were more adapted to live in such an ecosystem, hence through natural ecosystem these organisms were favored and increased in numbers.
