Chargaff discovered that in dna extracted from organisms, the amounts of guanine and cytosine are roughly the same, and the amounts of adenine and thymine are roughly the same. why was this discovery important?

a. the amounts of each nitrogenous base in dna proved that dna is copied before cells divide. b. the base pairing of adenine to thymine and of guanine to cytosine was a key piece of information in elucidating the structure of dna. c. the amount of thymine can't be more than the amount of cytosine in a given strand of dna. d. the amounts of each nitrogenous base in dna determines the function of the dna

B. The base pairing of adenine to thymine and of guanine to cytosine was a key piece of information in elucidating the structure of DNA.

Explanation:

Erwin Chargaff, a biochemist proposed a rule called Chargaff’s rule that states that s that the amounts of the purine bases are equal to pyrimidine bases.  Thus, the amount of adenine is equal to the amount of thymine, and the amount of cytosine is equal to the amount of guanine. Further, he states that the pairing of bases is fixed. Adenine always pairs with thymine and guanine is always pairs with cytosine.

d is the answer

sorry if its wrong!

answer: tributaries flow into rivers.

wetland is a biome that develops when the water gets accumulated in a land exhibiting a huge depression. these form either seasonally or permanently. the water in the wetland comes from rivers, lakes, ocean, flood, rain or other sources. the wetlands includes mangroves, marshes and peatland.

tributaries flow into the rivers develops a wetland because such water will get deposited in the depression and will restrict the original flow of tributary water. hence, water with low drainage current combines with the river water.
