Anions are negatively charged particles. The water molecule is a polar molecule, that means that, it is partly positive and partly negative. The oxygen atoms in the water molecules are more electronegative more than the hydrogen atoms and they draw the shared electron nearer to themselves than the hydrogen atoms; this make them to be slightly negatively charged while the hydrogen atom is slightly positively charged.
Therefore in solution, the anions would be attracted toward the hydrogen atom that is slightly positive while the cations will be attracted to oxygen atom that is slightly negative.
Answer: The correct complementary DNA sequence for the given sequence is D. TAG-CAG-GGT.
DNA contains nucleotide pairs on a sugar phosphate backbone. The nucleotide pairs are connected by hydrogen bonds and each nucleotide pairs with only one other nucleotide. The bases are of two types: purine and pyrimidine. The purine bases bond only to pyrimidine bases. The base pairing follows Chargaff’s rule where adenine forms a pair with thymine by two hydrogen bonds and Guanine forms a bond with cytosine with three hydrogen bonds between them.
Answer:
The correct answer is - option B. DNA sequences from different species can be compared, giving us more information about their evolutionary relationships.
Explanation:
The study of the evolution of a species in a longer period of time and its evolutionary relation with other species is phylogeny. DNA is the basis of the molecular phylogeny of a species to find out the evolution of species.
Genetic mutations, a sequence of nucleotides, and other information of DNA helps in the establishment of divergence from common ancestry. By comparing the information it gives an idea about the evolutionary ancestry of two or more species.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
During metaphase of cell division, the chromosomes line up in the metaphase plate and the spindle fibers from the poles extend and attach to the centromeres of the chromosomes. The spindle then contracts and pull different chromosomes to the opposite poles of the cell before the parent cell divides. If spindle fibers do not form, then the chromosomes will not separate during anaphase.
Therefore, the final cell after mitosis will be a cell with double the number of chromosomes -because if you remember, during interphase, genetic material is replicated so each daughter cell can have its copy-. Due to quality control in the process of cell divisison, this cell will mostly undergo apoptosis, otherwise, it could develop into cancer.
