What are the biggest advantages of natural gas as a fuel source?

1 answer:

5 0

Due to its cleaner combustion, natural gas is the most environmentally safe fossil fuel. Natural gas doesn't have as many toxic combustion byproducts as other fossil fuels.

Natural gas is adaptable. Starting and stopping a gas-fired power plant is substantially faster than one that burns coal.
Due to its flexibility, it complements renewable energy sources like solar and wind, which are only usable when the sun is out and the wind is blowing.
When burned to produce power, natural gas is the cleanest-burning hydrocarbon, releasing about half as much carbon dioxide (CO2) and only one-tenth as much air pollutants as coal.
By switching to natural gas from coal, there is a significant opportunity to cut CO2 emissions and air pollution in the near future.
Because Natural gas is now so widely accessible through LNG, it can assist nations in coping with short-term supply interruptions.

Does mRNA model more closely resemble the DNA strand from which it was transcribed?

Bond [772]

Answer: No, mRNA ( messenger RNA) model does not closely resemble the DNA strand from which it is transcribed.

This is because mRNA strand is complementary to the strand of DNA template that is used in its synthesis during the process called transcription. The polarity of DNA template is 3' to 5' whereas that of mRNA transcribed is 5' to 3' that is both the strands have antiparallel polarity.

This is the reason template DNA is referred antisense. mRNA strand more closely resembles the sense strand ( which is complementary strand of DNA template in a double helix).
