Summary of Differences Between DNA and RNA<span>DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose, while RNA contains the sugar ribose. The only difference between ribose and deoxyribose is that ribose has one more -OH group than deoxyribose, which has -H attached to the second (2') carbon in the ring.DNA is a double stranded molecule while RNA is a single stranded molecule.DNA is stable under alkaline conditions while RNA is not stable.<span>DNA and RNA perform different functions in humans. DNA is responsible for storing and transferring genetic information while RNA directly codes for amino acids and as acts as a messenger between DNA and ribosomes to make proteins.</span></span>
A. Neutral water
Less than 7 is acidic (which has 6 letters, 6< 7)
More than 7 is alkaline (which has more than 7 letters). Alkaline = basic
7 is neutral
Answer:
This experiment proved that DNA replicated semiconservatively; half the original polynucleotide is conserved in each of the two copies
Explanation:
Semi-conservative mode of replication means that the two strands of DNA unwind from each other, and each of themacts as a template for synthesis of a new, complementary strand. As a result, two formed DNA moleculesc ontain one original strand and one new strand.
Meselson and Stahl experiment showed this model by labeling the DNA of bacteria across generations using isotopes of nitrogen ( patterns of DNA labeling showed the mode of replication).
Answer:
External respiration: CO2 diffuses into the blood
Explanation:
External respiration is also called the pulmonary gas exchange. It refers to the diffusion of O2 from the air in the alveoli of the lungs to blood in pulmonary capillaries and diffusion of CO2 in the opposite direction from the capillary blood into the alveolar air. External respiration in the lungs is responsible for oxygenation of deoxygenated blood coming from the right side of the heart. The oxygenated blood is then returned to the left side of the heart.
Answer and Explanation: In enzyme kinetics, one constant describing enzyme activity is <em>Maximal Velocity</em> (Vmax). It indicates how fast an enzyme can catalyze the reaction. It is dependent on substrate concentration.
As the muscle is an organ which needs a great amount of energy, the enzyme glycogen phosphorilase is very active on the organ, compared to the liver, where glicose is stored. So, the Vmax of glycogen phosphorylase expressed in muscle is faster than when expressed in the liver, means the enzyme in muscle has a bigger concentration of substrate and therefore will reach Vmax faster, i.e. will be significantly larger.
