Answer:

DNA and RNA share many characteristics. They are both composed of nucleotide monomers and are read in the 5'-to-3' direction. They also share the same complementary base pairs, except RNA uses uracil in place of thymine; both contain adenine.DNA and RNA base pairing is slightly different since DNA uses the bases adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine; RNA uses adenine, uracil, cytosine, and guanine.Uracil differs from thymine in that it lacks a methyl group on its ring.DNA and RNA perform different functions in humans. DNA is responsible for storing and transferring genetic information while RNA directly codes for amino acids and as acts as a messenger between DNA and ribosomes to make proteins.DNA is stable under alkaline conditions while RNA is not stable.

Answer:

DNA and RNA both pair guanine to cytosine. In RNA, thymine which is pair with adenine in DNA, is replaced with uracil

Which of the following does not represent a common outcome following introduction of foreign DNA into a bacterial cell?Choose on
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The correct option is A, since if the DNA enters in a circular form it is called a plasmid, and the plasmids upon entering the bacteria self-replicate outside the genetic structure, which gives the bacteria better survival qualities.

Explanation:

Plasmids are generally circular extrachromosomal DNA molecules that replicate and transmit independently of chromosomal DNA, and are normally present in bacteria, archaea, and sometimes in eukaryotic organisms such as yeast. Its size varies from 3 to 10 kb. The number of plasmids can vary, depending on their type, from a single copy to a few hundred per cell. Plasmid vectors allow cloning of exogenous DNA ligands of up to 4 kb since a larger size than this makes cloning in these vectors difficult. The term plasmid was first introduced by the American molecular biologist Joshua Lederberg in 1952. Plasmids can only coexist as one or more copies in each bacterium, due to cell division they can be lost in one of the secreted bacteria.
