Imagine you have discovered a new species of bacteria. to begin your investigation of this organism, you run an assay on the total nucleotide content of the bacterial dna. if the cytosine content of dna from the bacterial cells is 40%, what is the adenine content?

Adenine = 10.

Explanation:

The content of the nitrogenous base of the DNA molecule can be calculated by using Chargaff's rule. According to the Chargaff's rule the ratio of the amount of purines to the pyrimidines is equal to 1.

The cytosine content of the DNA is 40. The guanine will also be 40, according to the chargaff's rule. Adenine + guanine = cytosine + thymine.

The amount of adenine will be equal to the amount of thymine. 40+40 + 2 adenine = 100. Adenine = 10.

Here, the adenine is 10 , then thymine will be 10.

many phylogenetic trees have a single lineage at the base representing a common ancestor. a lineage that evolved early from the root and remains unbranched is called basal taxon. when two lineages stem from the same branch point, they are called sister taxa.

can i get the brainliest pls

explanation:

but there is no

i guess you forgot putting it.
