Answer: DNA is antiparallel because Its double strands run in opposite directions.

Explanation: The antiparallel nature of DNA strands means that as one strand runs in 5'->3' direction, the other strand runs in 3'->5' direction. The two antiparallel DNA strands are not identical in either base sequence or composition rather they are complementary to each other. This means that anywhere thymine base is found in one strand, adenine is present in the other strand and anywhere guanine occurs in one strand, cytosine occurs in the other strand.

Answer: A prokaryotic cell is a simple, single-celled (unicellular) organism that lacks a nucleus, or any other membrane-bound organelle. We will shortly come to see that this is significantly different in eukaryotes. Prokaryotic DNA is found in the central part of the cell: a darkened region called the nucleoid Unlike Archaea and eukaryotes, bacteria have a cell wall made of peptidoglycan, comprised of sugars and amino acids, and many have a polysaccharide capsule (Figure 1).

What process is responsible for or leads to magma that is intermediate and often variable in chemistry, when erupted in the casc
ozzi
Intermediate magma is also known as andesitic magmas and these are created when an oceanic plate subducts beneath a continental plate. The magma is generated in the wedge of mantle rock beneath the crust. The Cascade Mountain Range is formed due to the subduction of the Juan de Fuca Plate beneath the North American Plate.

Alex73 [517]

Geology is a branch of natural science that studies rocks, how they form, etc.

This field of study enabled us to know the age of Earth, the different layers that make up earth amongst many other things.

Damm [24]

Answer:

This will lead to an  decreases  in the ATPs synthesis. This is because low pH , high acidity favours ATP synthesis, because it increases the  proton concentration for electrochemical gradients needed for energy that  ATPase enzymes makes used of   synthesis  of ATPs.

Therefore a rise in the pH(low acidity) lowers protons levels, and therefore reduced electrochemical gradients , with a drop in energy for ATPs synthesis.
