Correct Answer: A DNA is made up of four bases called Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine
Correct Answer: Cochlea
Correct Answer: epithelial
Explanation:
Epithelial tissue is made of layers of cells that cover the surfaces of the body that come into contact with the exterior world, line internal cavities, and form glands.
The four types of tissue in the body are epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous.
Correct Answer: Uracil
Correct Answer: protists have a membrane-bounded nucleus, which bacterial cells lack.
Correct Answer: Both A & B
Explanation:
The statements true about viruses are :
1. The capsid enters the host cell if the virus is enveloped.
2. Enveloped viruses bud from the host cell.
3. HIV contains reverse transcriptase.
4. A retrovirus contains RNA.
Correct Answer: more HDL
Explanation:
HDL stands for high-density lipoproteins.
HDL is called the "good" cholesterol because it carries cholesterol from other parts of your body back to your liver. Your liver then removes the cholesterol from your body.
Hence, when it comes to cholesterol it is better to have more HDL.
Correct Answer: Both A & B
Explanation:
Most cellular activities will occur in the cytoplasm of the cell. Many metabolic pathways including glycolysis and process such as cell division occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.
Correct Answer: RNA acts as a messenger in between the DNA and ribosome as it transforms the genetic information from the DNA and as DNA is big and can't fit into the nuclear pores
Correct Answer: Cytosine
Explanation:
In DNA, the chemicals are Adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine. They always pair as basepairs like Adenine with Thymine and Guanine with Cytosine.
