A pressurized water reactor does not boil the water!

Explanation:

There are different type of nuclear power plants, that are used to generate electricity other than the water ,wind and solar electricity generation.

The nuclear power plants use uranium as fuel that heat the water and the steam generated runs the turbine

The most common type of nuclear power reactors are :-

The pressurized water reactor

It heats boils the water to ane extreme temprature but it doesnt boil it that water due to the great amount of pressure it is under

The boiling water reactor

the nuclear fission reaction of uranium generates great amount of enegery that is absorbed by the water and it starts to boil , the steam generated runs the turbines

Now that you have identified the components of DNA, can you describe how these components bind together to form a DNA molecule?

omeli [17]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is attached below.

Answer:

1. DNA is the polymer of deoxyribonucleotides that contain the nitrogenous base, pentose sugar and phosphate group. The phosphate is attached with the 3 C position of the deoxyribose sugar. This leads to teh formation of phosphodiester bond.

2. The DNA backbone consists of phosphate and sugar. The nitrogenous bases are inserted inside the DNA molecule. These nitrogenous bases are linked together by the hydrogen bonds.

3. The adenine binds requires two hydrogen bonds to bind with thymine. This provide complementary nature to the DNA molecule. Uracil is present instead of thymine in RNA .

4. The guanine binds requires three hydrogen bonds to bind with cytosine. More amount of energy is required to break their bonds.

Janis tore a ligament in her ankle. Until the injury heals, she is at most risk for which of the following? dislocating bones lo

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is ''dislocating bones.''

Explanation:

When the bone " pops out" or dislodges from its place (joint), a dislocation occurs. An ankle dislocation, like any other joint, occurs when the 2 articular surfaces of the ankle separate, in this case when the talus ( together with the rest of the foot) " pops out of place" and is no longer in contact with the surface of the tibia-fibula. This leads to the complete breakdown of the ligaments that hold the joint in place, causing the bones to " pops out." Producing significant deformities in the affected joint.
