Answer: D. Thymine is used in replication while uracil is used in transcription.

Explanation:

Genetic information is stored in double-helixes of DNA molecules (Doxyribonuclease). In replication, two daughter strands of DNA are copied from the parent strand, while in replication, instructions stored within DNA are copied into a different form, called mRNA or messenger RNA.

Nucleotides are monomers comprising DNA, a nucleic acid that along with RNA, a ribose sugar-containing nucleotide, acts as a storage molecule to encode proteins. 5-carbon deoxyribose or ribose sugar, phosphate and one of four nitrogen bases are found in nucleotides:

Adenine (A)

Guanine (G)

Cytosine (C)

Thymine (T).

Uracil (U) found in RNA

While both contain four nucleotide bases, in RNA, uracil replaces thymine... The DNA nucleotides are involved in replication while RNA nucleotides drive transcription,

Answer:

No, cardiac muscle tissue does not exhibit recruitment.

Explanation:

The cardiac muscle tissue does not recruit cells to contract. The reason is that the cardiac muscle contracts all its cells at once and with the same force. It does not have to recruit other cells since it does not have to lift objects of different weights. The heart's contraction aims to pump blood and to do it rhythmically. The heart has a natural peacemaker, the sinoatrial node. The Sinoatrial node transmits an electrical impulse to all the heart to contract it all at the same time and continuously. For these reasons, the cardiac muscle does not need recruitment.
