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,

How are human activities disturbing carbon dioxide levels and affecting marine life?

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Hello Gangt181, The current increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is as a result of human activities that began in the late 1700s. This period sparked the beginning of the Industrial Revolution and this is when we began to use fossil fuels. The burning of fossil fuels coupled with widespread global deforestation has led to a rise in CO2. Excess carbon dioxide in the oceans causes it to become more acidic. This acidity will affect marine species with shells like mussels and lobsters.

QUICK HELP!!!!!!! Choose an organism that you are familar with, and explain how the three parts of the cell theory relate to tha

Lana71 [14]

You can pick any organism and relate most of the cell theory to them. For instance, all living organisms are composed of cells. This is part of the cell theory and all living organisms are just that, made of cells. Another part of the cell theory that can be applied to any organism is that hereditary information is passed on from cell to cell. When we have Offspring, we pass off our hereditary information to our offspring. Lastly, part of the cell theory states that cells arise from pre-existing cells. I was born from a mother and a father so as a human I exist because I came from another human.
