Answer:
With respect to the composition of DNA, in an analysis it can be found that the proportions of nucleotides are A + C = G + T (option a).
Explanation:
The proportion of nucleotides in a DNA molecule can be established according to the sequence of these nucleotides on both complementary strands, since the purinic bases of one strand are complemented by the pyrimidinic bases of another:
- <em>Adenine is complemented with Thymine A=T</em>
- <em>Guanine is complemented with Cytosine G=C</em>
From this we can deduce that in a DNA molecule with two chains there will be the same amount of adenine and thymine, as well as the same number of guanine with respect to cytosine, so:
<em> A + C = G + T</em>
An example of this would be a known DNA molecule (hypothetical), with 5 molecules of Adenine and 7 molecules of Guanine. In this case there are 5 Thymines, complementary with Adenine, and 7 Cytosines like Guanine:
<em> A + C = G + T</em>
<em> 5 + 7 = 7 + 5</em>
Let "r" stand for the recessive red hair trait. A person with red hair must have a genotype of "rr" ( one from each parent) in order to have red hair( red hair being the phenotype).
Let "B" stand for brown hair and "b" stand for not brown hair. A person with brown hair can have a genotype of "Bb" or "BB" and have a phenotype of Brown hair. This is becasue brown hair "B" is the dominant trait.
The correct answer is A. A serious disease outbreak that infects hundreds of people
Explanation:
In science, the epidemiology is a fill that studies diseases especially in terms of the way diseases emerge and then spread in populations or the way diseases become epidemics. This implies, epidemiologists focus on diseases outbreaks rather than on inherited diseases. Moreover, epidemiology plays an important role in preventive health as well as actions to control epidemics. Considering this, it can be concluded an epidemiologist is likely to study " A serious disease outbreak that infects hundreds of people" because epidemiologists focus on the causes, transmission, and outbreaks of epidemics which are diseases that spread in a population.
Answer:
the Y chromosome is smaller than the X chromosome.
Explanation:
The male has an X and Y sex chromosome which is an exception to the general rule that homologous chromosomes are identical as the Y chromosome is smaller thus enabling it to swim faster than the X chromosome. The Y chromosome also has a longer lifespan compared to the X chromosome. The male genotypes is XY. Males are heterogametic as they produce two types of gametes, one carrying the X and the other carrying a Y chromosome.
