The propositions are:
a.alkylating agents
b.antimetabolites
c.topisomerase inhibitors
d.nucleoside analogs
e.<span>AZT

The right answer is A, 
An alkylating agent is a compound capable of adding alkyl groups to various electronegative groups under conditions present within the cells.

Antimetabolites are an anticancer drug but act differently than the alkylating agent. (interfere with folic acid)
Topoisomerase inhibitor acts by inhibiting isomerase, used in antibiotherapy (like quinolones).
Nucleoside analogs are analogs as their name says, it does not alkylate nucleotides.
AZT (</span><span>Zidovudine) is an antiretroviral drug that inhibits reverse transcriptase.</span>

Which statements describe Newton and the law of universal gravitation? Check all that apply.
nignag [31]

Answer:

1. Newton believed that gravity was a force.

3. The law of universal gravitation offers a mathematical explanation for the attraction between the moon and Earth.

Explanation:

Law of gravitation states that force is directly proportional to masses of objects and inversely proportional to the distance between from their center. Directly means if mass increases, force of attraction also increased while inversely means if distance decrease between objects, force of attraction is also increased. Gravity is measured in weight because weight ia a force which attracts things towards its center.
