The answer is : DNA is a long polymer with deoxyriboses and phosphate backbone. Having four different nitrogenous bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine. RNA is a polymer with a ribose and phosphate backbone. Four different nitrogenous bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil. Hope this Helps! Good Luck!

Answer:

DNA:

Deoxyribonucleic acid acts as the genetic material of almost all the living organisms. The deoxyribose pentose sugar is present in its DNA structure. The nitrogenous bases present in DNA are adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine. DNA is highly stable in nature and cannot acts as the catalyst.

RNA:

Ribonucleic acid acts as the genetic material in case of few viruses only. The oxyribose pentose sugar is present in RNA structure. The nitrogenous bases present in RNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil. RNA is highly unstable in nature and acts as a catalyst.

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

m = 20,000 kg

Explanation:

Force, $F=2.5\times 10^4\ N$

Acceleration of the shark, $a=1.25\ m/s^2$

It is required to find the mass of the shark. Let m is the mass. Using second law of motion to find it as follows :

F = ma

Putting the value of F and a to find m

$m=\dfrac{F}{a}\\\\m=\dfrac{2.5\times 10^4}{1.25}\\\\m=20,000\ kg$

So, the shark's mass is 20,000 kg.

You throw a ball straight down from an apartment balcony to the ground below. The ball has an initial velocity of 5.00m/s, direc

erik [133]

The height of the balcony may be calculated through the equation,
h = V₀t + 0.5gt²
where h is the height, V₀ is the initial velocity, g is the gravitational constant and t is time. Substituting the values given above,
h = (5 m/s)(2s) + 0.5(10 m/s²)(2 s)²
h = 30 m
Thus, the height of the balcony is 30 meters.

A box exerts 10,000 Pa of pressure on the ground. If the box weighs 1000 N, how much area is in contact with the ground?

lara [203]

Pressure = (total force) / (Area)

10,000 Pa = (1,000 N) / (Area)

Multiply each side by (Area) :

(10,000 Pa) x (Area) = 1,000 N

Divide each side by (10,000 Pa) :

Area = (1,000 N) / (10,000 Pa)

Area = 0.1 m²
