In an organism's dna, what makes one nucleotide different from another?
a. the sugar
b. the phosphate
c. the base
d. only some nucleotides have carbon atoms
e. only some nucleotides have nitrogen atoms

C. The base

Explanation:

The nitrogenous bases, Adenine, Guanine, Thymine and Cytosine in DNA are the variable elements in the nucleotides. Nucleotides are constituted by three elements: The sugar (deoxyribose) and the phosphate group constitutes the backbone of the double helix and are constant in all nucleotides. Also, all nucleotides have carbon and nitrogen atoms.

4.) metal

"-the movement of carbon from the nonliving environment into living things and back to the environment

-carbon is the essential component of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (which make up all organisms)

-carbon exists in air, water, and living organisms

-producers convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere into carbohydrates during photosynthesis

-bacteria in the atmosphere cycles through the system in filtration units

-in cellular respiration, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide

-some carbon is stored in limestone (forming one of the largest "carbon sinks" on earth)

-largest carbon reservoir on earth= limestone

-carbon stored in the bodies of organisms as fat, oils, or other molecules may be released into the soil or air when the organism dies

-this may form deposits of coal, oil, or natural gas (fossil fuels, which increased the atmospheric carbon dioxide)

-fossil fuels store carbon left over from bodies of organisms that died millions of years ago

-they are located in the surface of earth, deep within the earth and beneath the ocean floor."
