Now that you have come up with an equation that describes the relationship between amounts of different nucleotide bases in DNA, can you use it to predict the amounts of all four nucleotide bases when you only know the amount of one type of base? Approximately 21% of the human genome is comprised of nucleotides containing C. Given this information, calculate the percentage of the human genome that is comprised of nucleotides containing G, T, and A. (a) _____% of the human genome is comprised of G.(b) _____% of the human genome is comprised of T.

(c) _____% of the human genome is comprised of A.

Enter your answer as three numbers separated by commas (example: 12, 26, 32).

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The correct answer will be- 21, 29, 29

Explanation:

In a DNA sequence, the nucleotide base pairs on one strand of DNA are  complementary to the base pair on other strand of DNA.

According to the Chargaff rule, Adenine binds Thymine and Cytosine binds Guanosine which shows that the amount of A will equal T and the amount of G will equal C.

Therefore, when the amount of C is 21%, then the amount of G will be 21%.

To find amount of AT= 100-GC

                              AT= 100-42

                                AT= 58%

So, AT/2= 29% each

Thus, A=T= 29%

          G=C=21%

Carbon dioxide diffuses into the ocean carbon cycle via the air-sea surface exchange. Molecules of CO2 enter the ocean by diffusing into the surface waters and dissolving. The amount of CO2 that diffuses and dissolves in the surface water depends on several variables. Scientists have noted that sea more CO2 diffuses and dissolves in colder sea surface water and less CO2 diffuses and dissolves in warmer water. Let's assume the predictions of scientists predicting a warming climate are true. Can you predict the outcome if average ocean temperatures increase as well? Include the effects on appropriate components of the biosphere as well as the hydrosphere.

Answers

Warmer oceans would mean less dissolved CO2 as well as other gases such as oxygen in the global ocean. Lower CO2 would result in a decrease in photosynthesis of autotrophs living in the oceans.

Answers

Answer:

2 out of every 5 or 2/5

Explanation:

there are 200 black cats because there are 300 calico there are 500 total so it would be 200/500 or 2/5

What is enzyme, a substrate and competitive enzyme inhibition?

Answers

Answer:

Enzyme: A biomolecule that speed up the rate of chemical reactions without being used up.

Substrate: A substance or chemical that enter the chemical reaction and is being converted into a new substance  (product).

Competitive enzyme inhibition: Inhibition of enzyme's activity by binding of inhibitor to substrate binding site of the enzyme.

Explanation:

Enzymes are the biomolecules that serve to increase the rate of reactions by lowering down the required activation energy. The enzyme is never used up during reactions.  

Substrates are the chemicals that undergo a chemical change and produce products.  

For example, Glucose is the substrate for hexokinase enzyme and is converted into glucose 6 phosphate (the product).

When the inhibitor competes with the substrate for the binding site on the enzyme and does not allow the substrate to bind to the enzyme, the process is called competitive enzyme inhibition. It can be overcome by increasing the concentration of substrate in the system.

Dehydration synthesis leads to formation ofmonomers
polymers
water and polymers
none of the above

Answers

Answer:

Water and polymers.

Explanation:

Dehydration reaction may be defined as the reaction in which a water molecule is released during the process of reaction. Large molecules are joined together by the process of dehydration.

Polymers are formed by reacting the monomers together with a release of small molecules like water. Hence, water and polymers are formed by dehydration reaction.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).  

Dehydration synthesis leads to the formation of water and polymers. Hence, the correct option is C.

Dehydration is the process of water loss. It involves the formation of two smaller molecules to form a larger molecule with a loss of water. The macromolecules like carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids, are synthesized by a dehydration process which is essential for the survival of living organisms.

Thus, the dehydration synthesis leads to the formation of water and polymers. Hence, the ideal solution is option C.
