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%

2 facts and 1 fib about Kingdom Animalia
GrogVix [38]

Explanation:

Cell Structure

Creatures in kingdom Animalia are all multicellular organisms with eukaryotic cells that have nuclei and organelles. Unlike plants and fungi, animal cells do not have a cell wall. In addition, with the exception of sponges, cells are divided into specialized tissues or organs.

Movement

All Animalia members are mobile at some point in their lives. Motion is achieved through the musculoskeletal system and is one of the factors that allow animals to live in diverse ecosystems including oceans, mountains and deserts. Movement is achieved in various ways including legs, fins and wings.

Food and Respiration

All members of kingdom Animalia are "heterotrophs." They obtain nourishment from other organisms and digest the food internally. In addition, animals utilize aerobic respiration for cellular energy and food breakdown on a molecular level. Oxygen works at a molecular level to complete the metabolic processes necessary to turn fat and sugar into energy for the cells.
