Hippos likely evolved from a group of anthracotheres about 15 million years ago, the first whales evolved over 50 million years ago, and the ancestor of both these groups was terrestrial. These first whales, such as Pakicetus, were typical land animals. They had long skulls and large carnivorous teeth. Hope I’ve helped ;)
Answer:
a. Five-Carbon Sugar and Phosphate
Explanation:
A nucleotide can be defined as an organic molecule which forms the building block of nucleic acid such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).
Basically, nucleotide comprises of the following parts;
1. Nitrogenous base: this includes adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C) which are mainly found in the DNA while adenine (A), guanine (G), uracil (U) and cytosine (C) are found in the RNA.
2. A phosphate group.
3. A penrose sugar: it is either deoxyribose in DNA or ribose in RNA.
The two parts or chemical components of a nucleotide which do not change throughout the structure of DNA are;
I. Five-Carbon Sugar also known as deoxyribose and it has hydrogen on its second carbon.
II. Phosphate: this is the structural backbone that provides support to DNA.
The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:
(a)DNA (b)tRNA (c)rRNA (d)mRNA
Answer:
Option-mRNA
Explanation:
The mRNA is synthesized from the DNA and which is also a type of nucleic acid. When the nucleic acid is extracted from the yeasts and then mixed with the resin beads to which the polynucleotide with thymine base oar is attached.
The mRNA will bind to the resin bead as the mRNA after synthesis undergoes modification and attaches poly A tail to the end of the mRNA at 3' end.
This poly-A tail has adenine which easily binds to the thymine and thus mRNA easily attaches to the resin bead.
Thus, mRNA is correct.
The higher-density liquid water shelters organisms from cold air better than the less-dense ice.
