Answer: Option B) phosphate; hydroxyl; 3'
We identify nucleic acid strand orientation on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the phosphate group attached to the 5' carbon atom of the sugar portion of a nucleotide and the hydroxyl group attached to the 3'
carbon atom
Explanation:
For both RNA and DNA, chemical groups such as phosphate (PO3-) attaches to the 5' carbon of the pentose sugar (deoxyribose in DNA, ribose in RNA).
While hydroxyl group (OH) attaches to the 3' carbon atom of the pentose sugar.
Thus, a nucleic acid structure structure reveals a several repeating units of nucleotides where nitrogenous base links to a pentose sugar, who in turns is linked to phosphate group
Answer:
The correct answer is Glycocalyx, ribosome and cell wall.
Explanation:
Glycocalyx is mainly found in bacteria that makes a protective covering outside the cell wall in the form of capsule of bacteria and provide protection to bacteria from host immune cell.
Bacterial ribosomes are different from human ribosomes. Bacteria contain 70s ribosome while humans contain 80s ribosome so ribosomes are potential targets for many drugs present today.
Bacterial cell contain cell wall which is made up of peptidoglycan or lipopolysaccharide but human cell does not contain a cell wall, therefore, many drugs are designed to destroy cell wall of bacteria like penicillin.
So glycocalyx, ribosomes, and cell wall can be potential targets for Dr. Ehrlich's "magic bullets" due to significant difference or absence from humans.
Insects,nuts,fruits,and nectar.
Answer:
The DNA in eukrayotic cells is much more protected than the DNA in prokaryotic cells
Explanation:
DNA in eukaryotic cells lies within the nucleus. This DNA has a membrane protecting it from the outside. This means that the virus will have a harder time at getting to the DNA to insert its own DNA into it.
Prokaryotic cells have their DNA loose within the cytoplasm. This DNA is not protected. The virus will have to pass only 1 membrane in order to get to this DNA.
