Cosmic ray particles can do permanent damage to DNA, especially if both strands are damaged. Explain why damage to just one base

on one strand of a DNA molecule may be repairable.

One strand has the ability to for form its corresponding strand by means of the deoxy nucleosides existing in the cell. But conversely, if both the arrangements of DNA are impaired, then it would be impossible for the DNA to generate two strands that happened of same match from the current nucleosides. Henceforth, one strand damage can be remembered but double stranded can be lasting or permanent.

A piston-cylinder device contains 3 kg of saturated water vapor at 200 kPa. Now heat is transferred to the system at constant pr
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

work done = 117 kJ

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 3 kg

constant pressure P = 200 kPa

temperature T = 200°C

solution

we know that work done by steam is express as

work done = pressure × ΔVolume  ....................1

and here ΔVolume  = final volume - initial volume

we use here steam table and get at pressure 200 kPa

final specific volume = 1.08052 m³/kg

and

initial specific volume = 0.885735 m³/kg

so here

ΔV  = 3 × (1.08052 - 0.885735)

ΔV  = 0.584 m³

so put value in equation 1 we get

work done by steam = 200 × 0.584

work done = 117 kJ

g The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms separated by a large distance x is given by U(x)=−C6/x6, where C6 is a positi
Arisa [49]

Answer:

F_x = -\frac{6 C_6}{2^7}

Attractive

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms given by \frac{C_6}{X_6}

Based on the given information, the force that one atom exerts on the other is

Potential energy μ = \frac{C_6}{X_6}

Force exerted by one atom upon another

F_x = \frac{\partial U}{\partial X} = \frac{\partial}{\partial X}  (-\frac{C_6}{X^6})

or

F_x = \frac{\partial}{\partial X}  (\frac{C_6}{X^6})

or

F_x = -\frac{6 C_6}{2^7}

As we can see that the C_6 comes in positive and constant which represents that the force is negative that means the force is attractive in nature
