Answer:
The functional groups that define the two different ends of a single strand of nucleic acids are:
B. a free hydroxyl group on the 5' carbon a free hydroxyl group on the 3' carbon
G. a free phosphate group on the 5' carbon
Explanation:
A nucleic acid is a polymer formed of nucleotides that are linked with a phosphodiester bond. The structure of a nucleotide consists on a phosphate group linked to a pentose (ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA) that is also attached to a nitrogenous base. The nitrogenous bases are adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine (in DNA) and uracil (in RNA).
DNA and RNA are nucleic acids which can be found in a double or single strand presentation.
Nucleic acids are synthesize in the 5’ to 3’ direction, so that is why the convention is that the sequences are written and read in that direction.
The strand of a nucleic acid is directional with an end-to-end orientation, where the 5’ end has a free hydroxyl or phosphate group on the 5' carbon of the terminal pentose, and the 3’ end has a free hydroxyl group on the 3’ carbon on the terminal pentose (ribose/ deoxyribose).
Answer:
a.)
Explanation:
The dense cold salty water from the south sinks to the bottom of the ocean.
Same genus is more closely related. The farther down the list Phylum-Class-Order-Family-Genus-Species you go, the more closely related are the species in that taxon.
Answer:
50,000 women as part of the Wangari Maathai Green Belt movement
Explanation:
From the time when Wangari Maathai began the movement in 1977, more than 51 million trees have been planted and more than 30,000 women have received training in forestry, food processing, beekeeping and other trades that help them earn income while preserving their land and resources. Communities in Kenya (both men and women) have been motivated and organized to prevent further destruction of the environment and restore what has been damaged. The main theme of the Green Belt Movement remains to "mobilize community awareness for self-determination, justice, equity, poverty reduction and environmental conservation, using trees as an entry point."
