Nucleotides are made of a sugar, a phosphate group and one of four bases (adenine, Guanine, Thymine and Cytosine).nswered by The Community. Making the world better, one answer at a time.

The Average Size of Owls. The average size of owls varies depending on the species. Bubo virginianus or the great horned owl has an average length of 18 to 27 inches. Generally considered as the smallest owl, Micrathene whitneyi or the elf owl only grows at an average length of 5 to 12 inches.Bubo bubo or the Eurasian eagle owl lives in Asia and Europe, which has an average length of 23 to 30 inches.eanwhile, the average length of Aegolius harrisii or the buff-fronted owl is 9.06 inches. Other notable owl species include Aegolius ridgwayi or the unspotted saw-whet owl that grows 7.09 inches long and Aegolius funereus or the boreal owl that grows at an average length of 8.66 to 10.63 inches.
Great horned owls in the north are a bit bigger and have a wingspan a little bit longer than great horned owls in the south. In northern latitudes, they tend to have larger core bodies and a longer wingspan. Many other species are larger in the north as well. Great horned owls are 45.7 to 63.5 cm long and their wingspan is 127 to 152.4 cm. Their coloring also changes depending on where they live. A subspecies of great horned owls that lives in forests and meadows is darker and browner than other great horned owls. The area where they live also changes what color they are. Another subspecies in Baja California lives in the desert and is lighter and grayer than other great horned owls.
