It is common to use ddNTPs (dideoxynucleoside triphosphates) for sequencing DNA because, when incorporated into a growing DNA po
lymer, the ddNTP acts as a chain terminator, allowing the researcher an opportunity to determine the last-added base to a given chain. From your knowledge of nucleotide structure and DNA synthesis, what is the most likely attribute of ddNTPs for DNA sequencing? A. The ddNTPs lack a 5′ carbon.
Dideoxynucleotides is a family of inhibitors of the DNA polymerase, its official name is 2',3' dideoxynucleotides but they are commonly called ddNTPs. One of the main characteristics of this compound is the absence of the 3'-hydroxyl group in the deoxyribose, due to the absence of this group, it is impossible to form a phosphodiester bond between nucleotides and the DNA synthesis is stopped.
Planarians have eyespots which help them to sense light. They cant see any clear <span>object but they can tell what is light or dark. Tapeworms dont see anything</span>
Parasite: Parasites are different from predators because parasites only take resources from one host, whereas predators eat many prey. A good example of this is the trematode parasite Schistosoma mansoni. An adult schistosome parasite lives inside of just one human host
