A gene is a sequence of DNA that holds the code for a. self-replication. c. the manufacture of a carbohydrate. b. the manufacture of a polypeptide. d. recombinant technology.

OpenStudy (dulljackel09):

The answer A?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe it is actually the manufacture of a polypeptide. I'm NOT 100% sure but I truly do hope this helps sorry if it doesn't!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B

OpenStudy (dulljackel09):

You sure?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the manufacture of a polypeptide.

OpenStudy (dulljackel09):

Ok you take e2020?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hope the answers that you were given help!

OpenStudy (dulljackel09):

Can you guys help me with two more or no? ill give medals

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are they I will try and help!

DNA contains four different nitrogen bases: adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G). Considering the complementary base pairing, which of the following pairs are of equal amounts? a. Adenine and cytosine c. Adenine and thymine b. Adenine and guanine d. Thymine and cytosine

OpenStudy (dulljackel09):

My answer B is it correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here is a something that will help you answer the question hopefully!DNA contains four kinds of nitrogenous base: adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C). The DNA molecule is a double helix. It consists of two strands of smaller molecules called nucleotides wrapped around each other. Each nucleotide is itself made of three components. These are a sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate group and one of the four nitrogenous bases. EAch strand in the DNA double helix consists of a 'backbone' of alternating sugar and phosphate groups with a nitrogenous base attached to each sugar. The bases in the two strands project towards each other and the strands are held together weak electrical bonds (called hydrogen bonds) between the bases. The bases in the two strands always form specific base pairs. This means that an adenine in one strand always binds to a thymine in the other strand. Similarly, a guanine in one strand always binds to a cytosine in the other strand. The bases consist of rings of carbon and nitrogen atoms. Thymine and cytosine have a single ring and are called pyrimidines. Adenine and guanine have a double ring and are called purines. This double helix structure of DNA was discovered by James Watson and Francis Crick in 1953, marking the beginning of the age of molecular biology. Their proposal of a double helix was partly based on data supplied by Rosalind Franklin, who thought at the time that attempts to build models of DNA structure were premature

sorry it is so long! :(

OpenStudy (dulljackel09):

Nice but im not reading that lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks for the medal! Will you become my fan also?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Anything else I can help with??

OpenStudy (dulljackel09):

No im good

OpenStudy (dulljackel09):

Thanks for helping
