DNA has unique properties that allow it to accurately retain genetic information, even after multiple rounds of replication. One aspect of DNA that allows it to accurately store genetic information is the base pairing from Chargaff's first rule of the four nucleotide bases. If the A content of a DNA molecule is 22%, what are the percentages of the remaining bases?

Answer:

T= 22%

G= 28%

C=28%

Explanation:

With the help of Chargaff's rule, the percentage of each of the four types of nucleotide bases in a double-stranded DNA can be calculated. It is based on complementary base pairing rule which in turn makes the percentage of adenine bases equal to that of the thymine bases in a double-stranded DNA. Similarly, percentage of guanine and cytosine bases in a DNA duplex is equal since G always pairs with C. Therefore, if a DNA duplex has 22% adenine nucleotides, percentage of thymine bases would be= 22%

Total percentage of A and T bases in the given DNA= 22 + 22 = 44%

Total percentage of G and C bases = 100-44= 56%

Percentage of G and C bases each= 56/2= 28%

Of all the animals in the animal kingdom which one(s) would have the best chance for survival in mountains?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer & explanation:

Mountains are large formations of land at high altitudes, where conditions are often difficult. For example, cold weather and food shortages.

In the highest areas of the mountains, animals such as vultures, eagles, hawks and other birds of prey usually prevail.

In addition, it is common for the sides of the mountains to be covered with forests. In these areas it is possible to observe the predominance of animals such as moose, goats, sheep, skunks, llamas and lynx. This group has good climbing skills and manages to stay in the side of the mountains and in some high areas (not as high as the previous group).

Meanwhile, in the lower parts of the mountains, where the forest is denser, it is possible to observe the predominance of snakes, wolves, marmots, foxes, etc.

What is the difference between an element and a compound?
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Common examples include carbon, sulfur, oxygen, iron, copper, aluminium. Elements are represented by symbols. Compounds are substances made from atoms of different elements joined by chemical bonds. They can only be separated by a chemical reaction.

Explanation:

Substances can be categorised as either elements or compounds. Both of these are made up of atoms, the only difference is an element is made of one type of atom whereas compounds are made of two or more different types of atoms.
