The antiparallel arrangement within DNA molecules refers to Select one:

Biology
1 answer:
mylen [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

c. one helix strand that runs from the 5' to 3' direction and the other strand runs from the 3' to 5' direction.

Explanation:

A DNA molecule has <em>two strands of nucleotides with a sugar phosphate backbone each, but orientated on the opposite direction </em>allowing for the base pairs to complement one another, making it a more stable structure. <em>When two biopolymers run parallel to each other but with opposite directionality (alignment) we have an antiparallel arrangement.</em>

I annexed an image of the DNA structure.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Which one of the following statements about photophosphorylation is false?
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

C)The luminal side of the thylakoid membrane has a higher pH than the stromal side.

Explanation:

During the photophosphorylation, the electrons move through many electron carriers which allow the transport of hydrogen ions in the luminal side against the concentration gradient. This allows the increase in the Hydrogen ion concentration to the luminal side of thylakoid membrane and reduction in the hydrogen ion concentration of the stromal side.

Therefore due to the increased concentration of H⁺ ions in lumen during the photophosphorylation, the lumen has a lower pH than the stroma. During photophosphorylation, the pH of lumen decreases up to 4 and the pH of stroma increases up to 8. So the false option is C.

Which of the following enzymes listed below are responsible for cancer cells ability to prevent aging of the cells and contribut
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Telomerase

Explanation:

Repetitive regions at the ends of Chromosomes are known as telomeres and these are crucial for chromosomal stability. There is no gene present and they provide protection to internal parts of chromosome. The telomeres are eaten up slowly by ‘DNA REPAIR MECHANISM’ after many division cycles, which is considered as ageing. That why, a cell can divide only certain number of times.

Some cells have ability to express an enzyme telomerase that maintain the length of telomere. The telomerase enzyme contributes to cell immortality by rebuilding the damaged telomere. Thus telomerase enzyme is necessary for cancer initiation and survival of tumor. Telomerase enzyme can make its own DNA by using its RNA as template . It extends the overhang strands of DNA by using a comlementary DNA.
