Taq polymerase enzyme important for efficiency in PCR because it is thermostable polymerases that remain active at high temperatures (90 -95  degree Celsius) a beyond the denaturation temperature of DNA.

PCR :

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a laboratory technique for rapidly amplifying millions to billions of copies of a specific segment of DNA, which can then be used for further research.

Taq polymerase is a DNA polymerase derived from bacteria called Thermus aquaticus, which are naturally thermophilic and is a thermostable polymerases that remain active at temperatures higher than the temperature at which DNA is denatured. This allows PCR to be used on DNA samples without the need to add new DNA polymerases after each cycle.

What level of protein structure is created during protein syntheisis?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

The correct answer will be - Primary structure

Explanation:

Proteins are one of the biomolecules formed by the process of translation.

Depending on the function they attain many structures like primary, secondary, tertiary and Quaternary structure.

The primary structure is the simplest structure formed by binding the amino acids via peptide bonds in linear order. This simplest structure is formed by the process of translation in which tRNA brings specific amino acids to the nascent peptide.

Thus, Primary structure is the correct answer.

What differences do you see in the molecular shape of CO2 and NH3?
VMariaS [17]

The NH3 molecular geometry (molecular shape) is trigonal pyramidal. The NH3 bond angles are 107 degrees because the hydrogen atoms are repelled by the lone pair of electrons on the Nitrogen atom.
