To measure gender differences in terms of wealth, health, and education, the most appropriate option to use would be the **Gender Development Index (GDI)**. The GDI is specifically designed to measure gender disparities in human development, taking into account dimensions such as health (life expectancy), education (years of schooling), and economic participation (income), which makes it suitable for analyzing gender differences in these areas.
The other options, like the GINI coefficient and GDP, do not specifically measure gender differences, while the Consumer Price Index (CPI) is used to measure inflation and the price level of consumer goods rather than differences in gender-related wealth, health, or education.

The key difference between DNA and RNA is that **DNA contains thymine, while RNA contains uracil**.
To clarify the other options:
- DNA uses deoxyribose sugar, while RNA uses ribose sugar (not vice versa).
- DNA is typically double-stranded, while RNA is usually single-stranded (not the other way around).
- DNA is primarily found in the nucleus, while RNA is found in the cytoplasm (not the other way around).
Therefore, the correct answer is the first option.

The correct response is **Amino acid**.
A nucleotide is made up of three components: a phosphate group, a sugar (deoxyribose in DNA and ribose in RNA), and a nitrogenous base. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and are not part of a nucleotide.

To find the mRNA complementary strand for the given DNA strand **ACC GTT AAT**, we need to first remember that during transcription, DNA is used as a template to synthesize mRNA. In RNA, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U) instead of thymine (T), while cytosine (C) still pairs with guanine (G).
The complementary base pairs for the DNA strand will be as follows:
- A (in DNA) pairs with U (in RNA)
- T (in DNA) pairs with A (in RNA)
- C (in DNA) pairs with G (in RNA)
- G (in DNA) pairs with C (in RNA)
Now applying this to **ACC GTT AAT**:
- A pairs with U
- C pairs with G
- C pairs with G
- G pairs with C
- T pairs with A
- T pairs with A
- A pairs with U
- T pairs with A
Thus, the mRNA strand will be **UGG CAA UUA**.
So the correct response is **UGG CAA UUA**.
The complementary base pairs for the DNA strand will be as follows:
- A (in DNA) pairs with U (in RNA)
- T (in DNA) pairs with A (in RNA)
- C (in DNA) pairs with G (in RNA)
- G (in DNA) pairs with C (in RNA)
Now applying this to **ACC GTT AAT**:
- A pairs with U
- C pairs with G
- C pairs with G
- G pairs with C
- T pairs with A
- T pairs with A
- A pairs with U
- T pairs with A
Thus, the mRNA strand will be **UGG CAA UUA**.
So the correct response is **UGG CAA UUA**.
