The three most common ways that bacteria diversify their DNA are transformation, conjugation, and transduction. Genetic Material: the material in our cells that makes us who we are inside and out.

Deoxyribonucelic Acid (DNA): hereditary material found in the nucleus.

Ribonucleic Acid (RNA): genetic material that differs from DNA through its chemical bases.

DNA contains all the secrets that make you so awesome! So, it is super important that the cell keeps the DNA safe. DNA has so much information that it could stretch from the earth to the sun four times! No seriously, four times! I'm sure you're thinking, how does all that information get into something so small? Well, DNA is highly organized in order to keep all information safe, yet accessible to the cell. This is a great thing because you don't want to lose your awesomeness! DNA is comprised of four chemical bases also known as nucleotides: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). These bases pair with one another, A with T and C with G. Each base is attached to a sugar (ribose) and a phosphate molecule: hence the name deoxyribonucleic acid.

Now that we have the basic building blocks of DNA, let's get into the structure. DNA is double stranded, and each strand is held together by the pairing of the nucleotides. Remember what we mentioned above: A loves T and C loves G. These bases never cheat on one another; they only pair with the partner they love! The double stranded DNA is spirally coiled to form a helix. You will find many textbooks refer to DNA as a double helix. This double helix looks much like a ladder with the nucleotides representing the rungs on the ladder and the sugar and phosphate are the sides. The double helixes are then wrapped around proteins called histones and packaged into chromosomes.

The other type of genetic material called ribonucleic acid (RNA) is structurally similar to DNA, but there are a few differences--primarily in their chemical bases. Before we get more into the differences, let's examine the similarities. Both have a sugar, phosphate group, and four chemical bases. Unlike DNA which is double stranded, RNA is single stranded. The other major difference is the bases that are found in RNA. RNA contains adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and uracil (U). So, in RNA the base thymine is replaced with uracil. In RNA the base pairs are A loves U and C loves G.

Determine the cause of death for anna garcia

we need additional information in order to determine the cause of death for anna garcia. there are at least 3 things with explanation included as to why we need them are as follows:

there would be some predate medical situations.there would be a report about the cause that why she was there for backache from the hospital.there would be a report about what she injected in her thigh that she suffered from backache.

This is s cute awee : (( . well if she's showing you signs that she may like you , then shoot your shot ! don't be afraid . & if you're unsure that she's giving you these signs , then wait out for a little bit . most girls are different . some may act really sweet , but only bc you're a good friend of hers . that , or she might like you . you just never know . but i think you should sit down with her & tell her how you feel . but don't be awkward & shy . just be straight up & tell her how you feel . if the feelings aren't mutual , then don't cry about it . you need to respect her decision & look for others in the world . feelings can be difficult & confusing , but don't be afraid to show them . i say you play it out & if you're still unsure about it , talk to her . - rach
