Answer:

DNA contains the instructions needed for an organism to develop, survive and reproduce. To carry out these functions, DNA sequences must be converted into messages that can be used to produce proteins, which are the complex molecules that do most of the work in our bodies.

Describe how oil and natural gas compare in terms of predicted supply and carbon dioxide emissions.
Shkiper50 [21]
<span>Pounds of CO2 emitted per million Btu of energy for various fuels: gasoline 157.2, propane 139.0, natural gas 117.0. The amount of CO2 produced when a fuel is burned is a function of the carbon content of the fuel. The heat content or amount of energy produced when a fuel is burned is a function of primarily the carbon (C) and hydrogen (H) content of the fuel. Heat is produced when C and H</span>

A checkered hen mates with a checkered rooster. The genes for the checkered trait are codominant in both parents. What are the c
seropon [69]

Answer:

Option D, 75%

Explanation:

Let the genotype of co dominant checkered hen mates and checkered rooster be CcC and CcC

Where Cc – is the allele for chekered skin  

C – is the allele for non chekered skin

Co-dominant allele are those which irrespective of being dominant or recessive are expressed equally.  

The punnet square for the cross between these two would be  

Cc C

Cc CcCc CcC

C CCc          CC

3 out of 4 offsprings have chekered allele i.e CcCc, CcC and CcC. Thus, the probability of chekered offsprings would be 75%

Methanogens are able to live in anaerobic conditions. <br><br> a. True <br><br> b. False
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Methanogens are prokaryotic microbes that produce methane as a by-product of metabolism in anoxic or anaerobic conditions. They are commonly found in the gastro-intestinal parts of ruminants, Marine sediments, and wetlands etc. They are responsible for the methane content released when cows burp/belch and the marsh gas of the wetlands.

Methanogens are strictly anaerobic (they thrive best in a no-oxygen condition) and play a vital ecological role by using up excess hydrogen as an energy source and other products of fermentation released during anaerobic respiration. Due to this, methanogens thrive in an environment which has all electron acceptors e.g. Oxygen, Sulphate, Nitrate etc. removed. This excludes CO2 because methanogens use CO2 as their carbon source.
