1. What are Chargaff's rules?

Biology
1 answer:
kotegsom [21]3 years ago
7 0

1)Chargaff's rules state that DNA from any cell of any organisms should have a 1:1 ratio of pyrimidine and purine bases and, more specifically, that the amount of guanine should be equal to cytosine and the amount of adenine should be equal to thymine. This pattern is found in both strands of the DNA.

2)DNA structure

DNA is made up of molecules called nucleotides. Each nucleotide contains a phosphate group, a sugar group and a nitrogen base. The four types of nitrogen bases are adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C). The order of these bases is what determines DNA's instructions, or genetic code.

3)A nucleotide consists of three things: A nitrogenous base, which can be either adenine, guanine, cytosine, or thymine (in the case of RNA, thymine is replaced by uracil). A five-carbon sugar, called deoxyribose because it is lacking an oxygen group on one of its carbons. One or more phosphate groups.

4)DNA replication is said to be semi-conservative because of this process of replication, where the resulting double helix is composed of both an old strand and a new strand. ... Semiconservative replication would produce two copies that each contained one of the original strands and one new strand.

5)The diagram has show in above.

6)complementary base pairing is necessary because the double helix shape would not be the same if not. Doubles would only pair with doubles and the singles to singles.

The sympathetic chain ganglia are a series of clusters of neuron cell bodies linked by bridges of ________
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

b. axons  

Explanation:

The Peripheral Nervous System consists of nerves and ganglia. Nerves are nothing more than bundles of parallelly arranged nerve fibers surrounded by connective tissue. Each of these fibers is formed by an axon and the sheaths surrounding it. The ganglia, in turn, are accumulations of neurons, which usually form spherical structures, are located outside the central nervous system and are also linked by axons bridges.

Inhibition of transcription by lac repressor involves its binding to the promoter
viktelen [127]
Answer:
           
                  The correct option is b (false). 

Explanation:
     
                    As is is cleared from the figure that when lactose is absent, the lac repressor binds tightly to the operator. It gets in RNA polymerase's way and prevent transcription.

The head of a phospholipid interacts with water because it is
Delvig [45]
Hydrophilic

A phospholipid is comprised of a phosphate hydrophilic head, which means that it is "water-loving," and a fatty acid hydrophobic tail, which is "water-hating." The head and the tail are joined together by a glycerol molecule. 

The phosphate head is attracted to water because it is charged (i.e. negatively). Water is a polar molecule, which means that there is an uneven distribution of charges within its molecular structure with the oxygen side being "more negative" than the rest of the atom (which is "more positive" near the hydrogen). Thus, the negatively-charged nature of the phosphate head and the parts of the water molecule which are positively charged enable the two to form an "attraction" towards one another. 

On the other hand, the hydrophobic tail is nonpolar, which means that it does not have a "more positive" or "more negative" side or part in its molecular structure. These differences in structure with water make the hydrophobic tail unattracted to water molecules and more attracted to other uncharged, nonpolar molecules (such as fats and oils).
