Deoxyribonucleoside Triphosphate, which is the more specific form of Deoxyribonucletides.

When DNA is synthesised by DNA polymerase by complimentary base pairing, 2 phosphate groups from Deoxyribonucleoside Triphosphate breaks away, releasing energy from the binding of the Deoxyribonucleotide to the adjacent Deoxyribonucleotide molecule via phosphodiester bond. These molecules will be called Deoxyribonucleoside Monophosphates.

Thus, the general name of the building block of DNA is Deoxyribonucleotide, and the more specific names depend on at which stage of DNA replication you are referring to.

Hope this helps! :)

Neveah’s mass on Earth is 79 kilograms (kg) and her weight on Earth is 110 pounds. The moon’s gravity is about 1/6 of the Earth’
mario62 [17]

Answer:

I believe the answer is A: Neveah's mass would stay the same but her weight would decrease

Explanation:

I believe its A because the moon has about 1/6 as much gravity as the Earth.  So if anything, her weight would decrease, not increase like B., C., or D says.  I hope this is helpful to anyone who reads it!!! ;)

What happens if translation does not work?
joja [24]
If the translation does not occur or works badly, then the ribosomes can't create new proteins. If the body fails to make proteins, it stops working. That's because proteins are essential for the well being of your body, and not just in the sense that eating meat gives you protein. The ones created by ribosomes are much more important.
