The ratio of \frac{A_{260}}{A_{280}}  indicates the purity of nucleic acid.For pure DNA it should lie between 1.8-2.0.Whereas for RNA it should be greater than 2.

This is calculated for DNA using the given values of absorbance-

\frac{A_{260}}{A_{280}}= 2.71

As the value is greater than 2.0,it reflects the RNA contamination in the sample.

How does ATP release energy that's stored within the molecule? 
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Option (D).

Explanation:

ATP (adenotriphosphate) molecules are considered as energy currency of the cells as molecules provide energy for various cellular functions.

The energy is stored in ATPs in two high-energy phosphate bonds, known as phosphoanhydride bonds. This stored energy is released in during hydrolysis of ATP, which involves removal of terminal phosphate groups bound the carbon backbone.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
