Answer:

If a strand of DNA contains the bases adenine, cytosine, cytosine and guanine the order  of the bases on the opposite strand is thymine, guanine, guanine and cytosine.

Explanation:

DNA contains a double strand, each of which contains a specific sequence of bases —adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine— whose order determines the genetic information stored in this nucleic acid.

The sequence of bases on one DNA strand is complementary on the other strand, taking into account the complementarity of bases, i.e. the purines adenine and guanine are complemented by the pyrimidines thymine and cytosine, respectively:  

A = T

G ≡ C

<u>So that the sequence A - C - C - G of one chain is complemented by the sequence T - G - G - C of the other</u>.

<em>     Taking into account the above information, the other options can be discarded, as they do not comply with the complementarity of bases in the DNA.</em>

Which of the following best summarizes how hormone levels are controlled?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Option A, Hormones are controlled by a feedback loop; information about a system is sent back to the controller of the system to improve its function.

Explanation:

Negative feedback loop controls the hormone production and release. This is done by eliciting the release of substances till a certain level after which the stop signal is activated thereby preventing further release. By this method,  concentration of hormones in blood is maintained within the narrow range.  

For example – Thyroid hormones is released when the anterior pituitary signals the thyroid. This continues till the hormones in the blood reach the threshold level. Once the threshold level is reached, hypothalamus receives a feedback and then signals anterior pituitary to inhibit further signaling to the thyroid

Hence, option A is correct

In response to seasonal changes in temperature, many organisms must alter the composition of their plasma membranes to maintain
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

C. a decrease in phospholipid fatty acid side chain length and a decrease in side chain saturation

Explanation:

Temperature is a factor that has a huge impact on cell membrane structure, more precisely its fluidity. So, for example, if temperature increases, the cell membrane becomes more fluid because the fatty acid tails of the phospholipids become less rigid.

. Pepper colors range from bright red, orange, and yellow shades, to dark green and brown shades. Coloration in bell peppers is
sattari [20]

Answer:

All crosses and proportions, genotypes and phenotypes are attached.

Explanation:

a. Within living organisms, staining is a characteristic governed by a polygenic inheritance, which means that there is more than one gene involved in the staining process. as you already know, each gene has two alleles, if a trait is controlled by 2 genes, it means that we will have 4 alleles at the crosses.

From the description between dominance and recessivity between the alleles that control the colors of the pepper, shown in the question above, we can see that for the crossing between a red pepper and a green pepper, being able to generate a completely orange offspring, it would be necessary that the genotype of the parent peppers was: Red: RGRG, green: rgrg.

This would generate an orange-colored RrGg offspring, as you can see at the F1 crossing.

b. When individuals of F1 offspring are crossed, the combination of alleles and the determination of genotypes and phenotypes becomes much more complex, because instead of 4 alleles, we will have the combination of 16 alleles among themselves. Once again we will need to rely on the description of dominance and recessivity shown in the question above, so that from the crossing between the alleles of each gene, we can reach a conclusion, as you can see in the F2 crossing.

Officially, insects are a class of invertebrates with a three-part body (head, thorax and abdomen), three pairs of jointed legs,
Tom [10]

Answer:

  • There is a diversity among beings some are very large, while others are microscopic in nature. However, we are always very curious about the classification of the insecticides in the ecological pyramid because there are termed to be the invertebrates having a proper body with all the segments i.e head, thorax, and abdomen well placed to form the structure of the living being.
  • As they are mostly characterized for there small size and very complicated form of morphology, while the insects are found to be living inside the soil and on the plant structures.

Explanation:

  • Insects are the one who plays the pivotal role in the decomposition of the living beings i.e both plants and animals inside a specific region. While, the insects have the basic feature to cover them selves with a protective layer of proteins,so, they can shield themselves from any degree of harm while living inside the environment.
