<span>In order to determine the sugar molecule associated with the nucleic acid, we must first determine if the nucleic acid is a deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA) molecule or a ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecule. We can determine this by looking at the bases in the molecule, as DNA has thymine and RNA has uracil. After the type of molecule is determined, the nature of the sugar is given by the name. DNA has deoxyribose and RNA has ribose</span>
If you add the amount of protons with the amount of neutrons, you get the atomic mass. Sodium has 11 protons, and 12 neutrons. 11+12=23
50% will be heterozygous. 50% will be homozygous. 75% will have the same phenotype as their parents.
Variations are beneficial for the survival of the species. Populations of organisms fill well-defined places, or niches, in the ecosystem, using their ability to reproduce.However, if some variations were to be present in a few individuals in these populations, there would be some chance for them to survive.
