Answer:

Each strand has a 5' end and a 3' end. Solving the structure of DNA was one of the great scientific achievements of the century. Knowing the structure of DNA unlocked the door to understanding many aspects of DNA's function, such as how it is copied and how the information it carries can be used to produce proteins.

Explanation:

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) Nucleic acid that transmits genetic information from parent to offspring and codes for the production of proteins

Nucleotide Building block of nucleic acids

Double helix Structure of two strands, intertwining around an axis like a twisted ladder

DNA replication Process during which a double-stranded DNA molecule is copied to produce two identical DNA molecules

Base pairing Principle in which the nitrogenous bases of the DNA molecules bond with one another

What is the role of the protein pumps?
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Pumps, also called transporters, are transmembrane proteins that actively move ions and/or solutes against a concentration or electrochemical gradient across biological membranes. One moves with the concentration gradient (high to low) which powers the movement of the other against the gradient (low to high).
