Answer:
Explanation:
In the structure of Nucleic acids the nucleobases (nucleotide and bases) are arranged is a specific form.This form of arrangement is called Base stacking.It simply refers to the bond formed between the adjacent bases.
These nitrogenous bases of (A,T,C.G) pairing in DNA are in planes in geometry.The bases planes stack with one another.This form of arrangement give rooms for more Van der Waals interactions in the plane of the bases.Although the Van der Waals are weak interactions,the bond ensure that these bases are braided or twisted together to give maximum energy,to maintain stability of the bases,and therefore of DNA structure
Therefore in water and other aqueous solution the stability of structure of DNA is enhanced by the base stacking,(coiling or twisting)with maximum van der waals interaction among the bases, than the hydrogen bonds formed between bases.Generally there are more stacking among G-C,than A-T,thus the former pairing contribute more the structural stability than the latter (A-T)
Answer:
The advantage of small cell size is that substances like organic molecules and ions can diffuse easily into the cells whereas wastes can diffuse easily out of the cells.
Answer:
The question is which organelle break down sugar molecules that supply energy to the cell. The answer is mitochondria. Mitochondria is referred to as the power house of the cell because it handles cellular respiration of the cell, which involves breaking down of sugar molecules to form energy in form of ATP.
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer is - due to the law of segregation.
Explanation:
In the given case the genotype of Rr and as we know R is a dominant characteristic for round seeds and r represents the recessive allele for wrinkled seeds in a pea plant. So if a plant has Rr in its genotype it means it is a phenotypically round pea plant due to dominance in this heterozygous case.
The law of segregation states that two alleles of a gene of a specific trait will be distributed randomly and there is an equal chance of each allele to end up in the gametes, similarly in this case both alleles can be segregated to gametes and it is a random process.
