Answer:

Fast Facts: Lipids

  • A lipid is any biological molecule that is soluble in nonpolar solvents.
  • Lipids include fats, waxes, fat-soluble vitamins, sterols, and glycerides.
  • Biological functions of lipids include energy storage, cell membrane structural components, and signaling

There are many different types of lipids. Examples of common lipids include butter, vegetable oil, cholesterol and other steroids, waxes, phospholipids, and fat-soluble vitamins. The common characteristic of all of these compounds is that they are essentially insoluble in water yet soluble in one or more organic solvents.

What two parts of a nucleotide do not ?change throughout the structure of DNA a. Five-Carbon Sugar and Phosphate Group b. Five-C
Stolb23 [73]

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.

Consider a population of wildflowers in which the frequency of the red allele cr is p = 0.7. what is the frequency of the white
anygoal [31]
I) Alleles is the alternative form of a gene or in other terms the variant form of a gene. If there are two alleles at a locus p and q are used to represent their frequencies. Frequencies of all alleles in a population will add up to 1. 
Therefore, in this case if red allele CW is p=0.7, then the frequency of the white allele in this population (q) is 0.3.

ii) From the punnet square the expected genotypes frequencies in the offspring generation will be 0.49 CRCR (red flowers, o.42 CRCW (pink flowers) and 0.09 CWCW (white flowers).
