Question

all of the following are complementary nucleotide base pairs except
c - g
a - u
t - a
u - c
question 5 (1 point)
characteristics of an ideal antimicrobial include that it
is broadly toxic.
is microbicidal.
is allergenic.
leads to antimicrobial resistance.
question 6 (1 point)
are \jumping genes.\
transposons
plasmids
genomes
mutations

Explanation:

• Complementary nucleotide base pairs: In DNA, adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). In RNA, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). So, U - C is not a complementary pair.
• Characteristics of an ideal antimicrobial: An ideal antimicrobial should be microbicidal (kill microbes). Being broadly toxic (harmful to the host), allergenic (cause allergic reactions), or leading to antimicrobial resistance (reduce future effectiveness) are not ideal.
• Jumping genes: Transposons are known as "jumping genes" as they can move around within the genome. Plasmids are extra - chromosomal DNA, genomes are the complete set of genetic material, and mutations are changes in the DNA sequence.

Answer:

• First question: D. U - C
• Second question: B. is microbicidal
• Third question: A. Transposons
