Alvin is studying a model of the chemical structure of a common nucleic acid. He observes that the nucleic acid consists of four nitrogenous

bases: adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and uracil (U).

Alvin's observation most strongly supports which of these conclusions?

A. The nucleic acid is a form of RNA, and is not DNA.

B. The nucleic acid is either mRNA or rRNA, but not tRNA.

C. The nucleic acid is either RNA or DNA.

D. The nucleic acid is DNA, and is not RNA.

Here's one way to follow the scientific method. place the missing steps in the correct position in the process.

Ry was studying two populations of the same species of lizards. one population lived on an island and the other lived on the mainland. both populations were affected by a hurricane that hit the island and the mainland with equal force. a year later, henry was testing the gene frequency and saw a decrease in genetic variation in the island species, but not in the mainland species. which best describes a conclusion he might have reached? gene flow greatly affects small populations, but large populations can recover. genetic drift greatly affects small populations, but large populations can recover. gene flow greatly affects large populations, but small populations can recover. genetic drift greatly affects large populations, but small populations can recover.
