Answer:

b) Tendon

Explanation:

Tendons are fibrous, thick, stiff and flexible structures, with a whitish color, present in different parts of the human body.

They are part of the striated muscle being made up of connective tissue (composed of collagen).

The main function of the tendons is to connect the muscles to the bones. In this way, it helps in the balance of the body and in the development of movements, distributing the forces in the muscles.

As it pulls the connecting bone with the muscle, the tendon creates the movement in order to transmit the force of the contraction to the bone.

In addition, the tendon provides stability to the joints (meeting point between two bones) of the body's joints.

Hairpins often form at palindromic sequences in single strands of either RNA or DNA. However, several key features differentiate
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

B) The pentose in the hairpin adopts only the C-3\' endo pucker conformation.

C) The hairpin adopts a right-handed helix with a diameter of 26 Å .

D) The hairpin contains G:C, A:U, and sometimes G:U base pairs.

DNA and RNA are both nucleic acids. Aside the structural difference of DNA being double stranded and RNA being single stranded, in DNA, the nucleotide bases adenine (A) is paired with thymine (T); while cytosine (C) is paired with guanine (G); howerver in RNA, thymine is replaced with uracil.; thus in RNA, the base pairs are - A:U and G:C

RNA however sometimes take on a dynamic structure, called the wobble case pair where guanine and uracil pair - G:U.

The diameter of RNA is 26 Å, while that of DNA is is 20 Å

The ribose in RNA with a helical structure has a C3’ endo conformation.

navik [9.2K]
The correct answer is "near the midpoint of the cycle". Ovulation is part of the menstrual cycle in women, wherein this is the stage where unfertilized ova or ovules are being discharged from the ovaries of the woman, which was supposed to be fertilized by a male's sperm, but since you haven't had intercourse, you would still have menstruation.
