Answer:
Thymine, which is often abbreviated to T or Thy, can also be referred to as 5-methyluracil. It is one of the pyrimidine bases found in the nucleic acid of DNA, along with adenine, guanine and cytosine (A, G and C). These bases are the building blocks of DNA and life form on earth.

Answer:
Sequence of nucleotides in the DNA strand
Explanation:
Deoxyribonuceic acid or DNA is a biological material that stores the genetic information of an organism.
DNA encodes the information through the order or sequence of the nuceotides along each strand. Organisms differ from one another because their respective DNA molecule have different nucleotide sequences and consequently, carry different biological instructions.
A DNA strand consists of two polynucleotide chains, composed of four nucleotide subunits. Each of these chains is known as DNA strand. Hydrogen bonds between the base portions of the nucleotides hold the two chains together. DNA nucleotides are composed of a 5-carbon sugar (Deoxyribose) to which are attached one phosphate group and a nitrogenous base (Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine). The nucleotides are covalently linked together.
Answer:
Tetraploid wheat evolved by allopolyploidization and subsequent diploid-like behavior due to cytological diploidization
Explanation:
Durum wheat (<em>Triticum durum</em>) or pasta wheat, is a tetraploid wheat species that has 28 chromosomes, i.e., seven pairs in each genome (2n = 4x = 28). Durum wheat was domesticated from wild emmer wheat, which originated by hybridization of two diploid wheat species with 14 chromosomes: <em>Triticum monococcum</em> (genome AA) and one wild progenitor (genome BB). <em>Triticum durum </em>is a typical example of evolution by hybridization and polyploidization, where the resultant tetraploid species has two complete sets of chromosomes. Allopolyploidization is one of the most common types of plant speciation. During meiosis, 28 chromosomes form 14 homologous chromosome pairs, because homologous chromosomes have developed 'restriction of pairing' (i.e., cytological diploidization). The restriction of pairing to fully homologous chromosomes ensures a correct meiotic behavior, which otherwise would be altered due to the high level of homology that still exists among chromosomes from different wheat progenitors.
Homologous structures (Not to be confused with Homologous pairs)
Answer:
The effects of weathering disintegrate and alter mineral and rocks near or at the earth's surface. This shapes the earth's surface through such processes as wind and rain erosion or cracks caused by freezing and thawing. Each process has a distinct effect on rocks and minerals.
