How are atoms in sugar molecules used to form amino acid and other large carbon-based molecules?

Biology
1 answer:
Aliun [14]3 years ago
3 0

The sugar molecules thus formed contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen: Their hydrocarbon backbones are used to make amino acids and other carbon-based molecules that can be assembled into larger molecules (such as proteins or DNA), used for example to form new cells.

José probably doesn't feel any pain because his body, during and after exercise released endorphins which are endogenous opioids. This endorphins promote a sense of satisfaction and pleasure, and make pain and discomfort feel irrelevant.

Use the double-stranded DNA molecule below to answer the following questions. The first pair of nucleotides (bolded) contains th
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is 2. 5'-AUGUCAGGUACGCCACAU-3'

Explanation:

The template strand for transcription is 3'-TACAGTCCATGCGGTGTA-5 and RNA polymerase will add complementary mRNA sequence against this strand in the opposite direction i.e., 5' to 3' direction.

In RNA, A(adenine) makes complementary base pairing with U(uracil), not with T(thymine) and the rest of the base-pairing is same as in DNA. Therefore the correct mRNA produced from the transcription of this DNA molecule by the help of RNA polymerase is 5'-AUGUCAGGUACGCCACAU-3'.

Then this mRNA sequence will be used by ribosomes to synthesize proteins during the translation process.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D. "whether the muscle moved the skeleton, the heart, or another type of internal organ".

Explanation:

It is possible to determine whether a sample of muscle tissue moved the skeleton, the heart, or another type of internal organ by analyzing its cellular structure and organization. For instance cardiac muscle is striated and organized into sarcomeres, while smooth muscle that is located in organs such as intestines, uterus and stomach are not organized into sarcomeres.

In 1953, the scientists James Watson and Francis Crick published their landmark findings on the structure of DNA. Watson and Cri
Digiron [165]

Answer:

The correct selection of answers to the question: Identify the pieces of evidence describing the features of DNA that Watson and Crick used to determine the structure of DNA, would be:

C: The two chains are parallel, both running in a 5´ to 3´ direction

D: A purine base forms hydrogen bonds to pair with a pyrimidine base located on the opposite DNA strand. Specifically, A pairs with T, and C pairs with G.

E: The sugar-phosphate backbones of each DNA helix run antiparallel to one another

F: The diameter of the DNA doube helix is 2 nm, with each purine-pyrimidine base pair spanning an equivalent distance between the two chains.

Explanation:

Although Watson´s and Crick´s research, and model of the DNA helix, became the breakthrough for science, as it visually presented the now known characteristics of DNA, this research was possible due to the way that these two researchers used previous information found by other scientist on the molecule, to finally build their model. All of the options that were selected were part of the research of several scientis, including Mendel, Rosalin Franklin, Linus Pauling, Maurice Wilkins, Oswald Avery and many others, who worked on different aspects of specimens and their specific characteristics, and which led them to discover that organisms possessed DNA, that this was the unit of information that directed all functions in living cells and how this DNA helix was chemically built to understand how it worked, and why it worked the way it did.
