Answer:
B (2nd Option): DNA is single-stranded
Explanation:
A is correct: DNA is indeed found in the nucleus of eukaryotes.
B is incorrect: Although there can be single strands of DNA (ssDNA), DNA is usually double-stranded which is how it forms its characteristic double-helix shape.
C is correct: Deoxyribose is indeed the sugar in DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid)
D is correct: The two single ringed nitrogenous bases in DNA are thymine and cytosine, while the other two (Adenine and Guanine are double ringed.

Answer:
The prolonged electrical depolarization of cardiac muscle cells -that occurs during contraction- is due primarily to the persistent influx of calcium ion
Explanation:
The action potential of the heart muscle is longer with respect to skeletal muscle (around 300 milliseconds), and this is due to the activity of calcium (Ca⁺⁺ ) in the intracellular compartment.
The initial depolarization of cardiac muscle fiber depends on the entry of sodium (Na⁺) into the cell. However, for the action potential to occur and be maintained, Ca⁺⁺ must increase its cytoplasmic levels, which depends on:
- The increase in intracellular sodium induces the release of Ca⁺⁺ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
- Calcium entry from the extracellular space through the voltage dependent Ca⁺⁺ channels.
- The entry of extracellular Ca⁺⁺ causes the release of more Ca⁺⁺ ions by the sarcoplasmic reticulum, further increasing its intracellular concentration.
This is how the ion that guarantees the duration of the action potential of the cardiac muscle cell is the Ca⁺⁺.

Answer:
The answer is 97%.
Explanation:
The zika virus' 1% incidence rate in the population has no effect over the probability of the patient being infected or not. If the test has a 3% false positive rate that means that if it is positive, the results have a 97% chance of being true. Therefore the chance that the person who took the test and had a positive result being actually infected is 97%.
