Is an inherently directional molecule – BOTH

with an N-Terminus on one end and a C-Terminus on the other end – NEITHER

Contains the base adenine – DNA

Contains the nucleotide deoxythymidine monophosphate – BOTH

Occurs only in single-stranded form – RNA

Is synthesized by a process that involves base pairing – BOTH

Is involved in the process of protein synthesis in the cytoplasm of the cells in the liver – RNA

Answer:

Nucleic acid is one of the four major macromolecules that is present in all life forms. It includes DNA ( deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid). It is made up of small unit called nucleotides.

A nucleotide contains a pentose sugar that is deoxyribose in DNA and ribose in RNA, nitrogenous base that is Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine in DNA and Adenine, Uracil, Cytosine, Guanine in RNA, and a phosphate group.

It is synthesised by a process of comlementary base pairing ( such as in double stranded DNA, A pairs with T and G pairs with C).

DNA is converted to mRNA inside the nucleus of eukaryotic cell and mRNA is then translated to protein when it moves the cytosplasm of the cell.

Thus, the correct answers are as follows-

1) Is an inherently directional molecule, with an N-Terminus on one end and a C-Terminus on the other end - true neither for RNA or DNA.

2) Contains the base adenine- True for both DNA and RNA.

3) Contains the nucleotide deoxythmidine monophosphate- True for DNA

4) Occurs only in signle stranded form- True for both RNA and DNA( such as single stranded DNA in DNA virus, and RNA in single stranded RNA in AIDS virus).

5) Is synthesized by a process that involves base pairing- True for both DNA and RNA.

6) Is involved in the process of protein synthesis in the cytoplasm of the cells in the liver- True for RNA ( particularly messenger RNA, mRNA)

What's another name for the shoulder blade​
const2013 [10]

Answer:

Another name is <u><em>Scapula</em></u>

The bones of the shoulder consist of the humerus (the upper arm bone), the scapula (the shoulder blade), and the clavicle (the collar bone). The clavicle is the only bony attachment between the trunk and the upper limb. The familiar flat triangular bone at the back of the shoulder. Known familiarly as the wingbone or, medically, as the scapula. The word "scapula" (with the accent on the first syllable) is Latin.

Explanation:

Hope this helps :)

If I told too much the answer to your question is <u><em>Scapula </em></u>

Sharks have existed on Earth for centuries, even thousands of years with very little change to their structure. Why do you think
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Sharks, in their basal form have been on Earth for hundreds of millions of years.  They were the first to develop a stream-like, torpedo shaped body and created a niche for themselves. Their aerodynamic body shape has evolved to allow for efficient and dynamic movement in water. Having a cartilage instead of bones allowed them to grow large and still be relatively light and buoyant . After they've evolved flexible, protruding jaws, there wasn't much to change. They were able to adapt and exploit all the water habitats as the world was changing.
