If a DNA molecule is found to be composed of 35% thymine, what percentage of cytosine would be expected, and why?

Biology

-Dominant- [34]3 years ago
4 0
We use Chargaff's rule to get the answer. [A] + [G] = [C]+ [T].    [A] + [G] + [C] + [T] = 100% Where is A is Adenine, G is Gaunine, T is Thymine and C is Cytosine. In DNA, Adenine always pairs with Thymine, and Guanine always pairs with Cytosine. Therefore if Thymine is 35%, then Adenine will also be 35% to make 70% in total. The remaining percentage will be 100% - 70% = 30%. The 30% will be shared equally among Cytosine and Guanine, at 15% each. Therefore Cytosine will be 15%

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

A. produce larger materials from the collision of smaller materials

Explanation:

The outcome of nuclear fusion reaction is that it produces larger materials from the collision of smaller materials.

  • Nuclear fusion is the combination of small atomic nuclei into larger ones with the release of a large amount of energy.
  • The energy released provides the needed temperature for another set  of atoms to fuse.
  • This process in turn yields a bulkier material accompanied with the release of a lot of energy.
