One of the 4 nucleic acid bases. They connect the two strands of the DNA double strand by means of hydrogen bonds, the principle of so-called complementarity of bases. derived from pyrimidine. It is part of nucleic acids, where it forms a complementary pair with guanine using three hydrogen bonds.

Answer:

cytosine is one of the three pyrimidine nucleobases used in forming nucleotides of the nucleic acid

It is located opposite guanine in the DNA double helix

It pairs with guanine in both DNA and RNA forming three hydrogen bonds

cytosine is one of the nitrogenous bases coding the genetic information molecules carry

It can even be modified into different bases to carry epigenetic information

Assuming that coleman???s hypotheses about the ob and db genes are correct, rank the mice by the amount of appetite-suppressing
otez555 [7]
Coleman hypothesized that the product of the ob+ gene was the appetite-suppressing hormone. Therefore, the homozygous ob/ob mutant would be unable to synthesize that hormone, and its circulating level would be zero. Coleman also hypothesized that the product of the db+ gene was the the receptor for the appetite-suppressing hormone. Therefore, the homozygous db?db mutant would be able to respond to it. It would eat excessively and produce large amounts of body fat, which in turn would produce large amounts of appetite-suppressing hormone. In the absence of a receptor, the db/db mutant's hormone level would remain abnormally high.
Both the ob/ob mutant and the db/db mutant are obese because neither is capable of suppressing its appetite. The ob/ob mutant produces no appetite suppressing hormone and so eats excessively. The db/db mutant cannot respond to the appetite-suppressing hormone and therefore eats excessively.

Why did proteins seem better suited for storing genetic information?
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Proteins seem better suited for storing genetic information because DNA is only made from 4 bases while proteins were made from 20 amino acids, Scientists thought that proteins could code for much greater variety in their amino acid sequence than DNA could in its nucleotide sequence.
