<em>c. 3 ' hydroxyl of deoxyribose</em>

Further explanation

Phosphodiester bonding occurs when exactly two hydroxyl groups in phosphoric acid react with hydroxyl groups on other molecules to form two ester bonds.

Phosphodiester bonds are the center of all life on Earth because they form the backbone of the nucleic acid strands. In DNA and RNA, phosphodiester bonds are the relationship between carbon at position 3 'from one sugar molecule and carbon atom at position 5' from another atom, deoxyribose in DNA and ribose in RNA. A strong covalent bond is formed between a phosphate group and two rings carbonated carbohydrate 5 (pentose) above two ester bonds.

The phosphate group in the phosphodiester bond is negatively charged. Because phosphate groups have pKa close to 0, they are negatively charged at pH 7. This repulsive force forces the phosphate to take the opposite side of the DNA strand and be neutralized by proteins (histones), metal ions such as magnesium, and polyamines.

In order for the phosphodiester bonds to form and nucleotides to join, the tri-phosphate or di-phosphate form of the nucleotide building blocks is broken to produce the energy needed to drive the enzyme-catalyzed reaction. When one phosphate or two phosphates known as pyrophosphates are released and catalyze the reaction, phosphodiester bonds are formed.

The hydrolysis of phosphodiester bonds can be catalyzed by the action of phosphodiesterase which plays an important role in repairing DNA sequences.

The phosphodiester relationship between two ribonucleotides can be broken by base hydrolysis, whereas the relationship between two deoxyribonucleotides is more stable under these conditions. The relative ease of hydrolysis of RNA is the effect of the presence of a hydroxyl group at position 2 '

The correct answer is c. 3 ' hydroxyl of deoxyribose.  
<span>
During the DNA synthesis via PCR, polymerization occurs in 5’-3’ direction. This means that enzyme DNA polymerase which synthesizes a new DNA strand is complementary to the DNA template strand (3’-<span>5’ direction). 5’ phosphate group of the free nucleotides which are added is attached to the 3'-hydroxyl group at the end of the elongating DNA strand.</span></span>

The second graph presented in the image below shows the survivorship of whales.
As we can see, the population grows rapidly after the calves reach adulthood, but the environmental factors limit the growth of the population and the population growth reached a plateau after a period of intense growth.

What heat source should you use to heat flammable organic solvents?
Fynjy0 [20]
Many organic compounds are ignitable, putting them in direct flame may cause fires or combustion. it is possible to start a fire on a hot plate, but typically hot plates are not heated as high and the temperature is somewhat controll-able... you can not control the temperature of a bunsen burner very easily i would not through acetone or ethanol on a hot plate, as it can catch on fire or cause burns, but it's much worse with the bunsen burner.

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

The statement that is not true for antibody staining is it can provide information about gene expression.

Explanation:

Antibody staining is important aspect of applied immunology. Antibody staining is done to determine a specific protein in a given sample.Antibody staining is done by using fluorescent dyes and also by using specific enzyme such as horse reddish peroxidase,alkaline phosphatase.

         Antibody staining can be visualized with either fluorescent or radioactive labels. Antibody staining can be performed by western blotting method.Multiple antibodies can be used to stain different proteins.Antibody staining requires the hybridization of the complementary base sequence of the antibody and also the target protein to which it binds.

Alex_Xolod [135]

Basing on the information given, fermentative metabolism is a type of anaerobic metabolism that does not use oxygen to produce ATP or bioenergy.Thus, this where its name derives from.  Thank you for your question. Please don't hesitate to ask in Brainly your queries.
