Answer:
We identify nucleic acid strand orientation on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the <u>phosphate</u> group attached to the 5' carbon atom of the sugar portion of a nucleotide and the <u>hydroxyl</u> group attached to the <u>3'</u> carbon atom
Explanation:
Nucleic acids are polymers formed by a phosphate group, a sugar (ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA) and a nitrogenous base. In the chain, the phosphate groups are linked to the 5'-carbon and 3'-carbon of the ribose (or deoxyribose) and the nitrogenous base is linked to the 2-carbon. Based on this structure, the nucleic acid chain orientation is identified as the 5'-end (the free phosphate group linked to 5'-carbon of the sugar) and the 3'-end (the free hydroxyl group in the sugar in 3' position).
Answer:
Solvents are substances in which solutes dissolves while solutes are substances that dissolve in solvents and solutions result from mixing solvents and solutes.
Explanation:
- A solvent is a substance such as water that dissolves a solute.
- A solute is a substance that dissolves in a solvent. For example, when sodium chloride dissolves in water, sodium chloride is the solute and water is the solvent.
- A solution, on the other hand, results from combining a solute and a solvent. Therefore, a mixture of water and sodium chloride forms the solution.
