Answer:

DNA nucleotides contain a different sugar than RNA nucleotides.

Explanation:  

DNA (Deoxyribose nucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid) are the nucleic acids which act a hereditary material in the genome of the organisms. The main difference that lies in the structure of DNA and RNA is that they exhibit different sugars.

DNA consists of sugar which is called as deoxyribose while the RNA structure consists of the ribose sugar. The only difference between the dioxyribose and ribose is that one more hydroxyl or -OH group is present in RNA at the the second (2') carbon ring. The deoxyribose sugar exhibit hydrogen or -H group attached to the second (2') carbon ring.

Answer:

The correct answer is- DNA nucleotides contain a different sugar than RNA nucleotides.

Explanation:

DNA and RNA are both nucleic acid structures and every organism contains one of them as the genetic material. There is a difference between DNA and RNA. The sugar that is used to make DNA is deoxyribose sugar which lacks the hydroxyl group at 2nd carbon position so only H atom is present there.

While in the formation of RNA ribose sugar is added which has a hydroxyl group at both the 2nd and 3rd carbon position of the sugar. There is one more difference in DNA and RNA uracil is present in RNA rather than thymine.

So the right answer is- DNA nucleotides contain a different sugar than RNA nucleotides.

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is 3' UCA 5'

Explanation:

The rule of pairing of base-pair says that A and T base pairs with each other with two hydrogen bonds and G and C base pairs with each other with three hydrogen bonds in DNA. In the case of RNA Uracil comes at the place of thymine that means uracil replaces thymine.

Therefore according to this base-pairing rule the corresponding codon of mRNA transcribes from DNA codon 5' AGT 3' will be 3' UCA 5' as U came in place of A nucleotide, C comes in place of G nucleotide, and A comes in place of T nucleotide.  

Therefore the correct answer is 3' UCA 5'.

1.¿El ciclo del agua tiene un inicio específico?
raketka [301]

Answer:

1)El ciclo del agua no se inicia en un lugar específico, pero para esta explicación asumimos que comienza en los océanos. ... Corrientes ascendentes de aire llevan el vapor a las capas superiores de la atmósfera, donde la menor temperatura causa que el vapor de agua se condense y forme las nubes.

2)El sol, que dirige el ciclo del agua, calienta el agua de los océanos, la cual se evapora hacia el aire como vapor de agua. Corrientes ascendentes de aire llevan el vapor a las capas superiores de la atmósfera, donde la menor temperatura causa que el vapor de agua se condense y forme las nubes.
