The carbohydrates found in our genetic material are the two sugars deoxyribose and ribose.
Carbohydrates are defined as organic compounds which occur in food and living tissue and include starch, sugars and cellulose. They are composed of hydrogen, oxygen and carbon.
Deoxyribose is a sugar found in the structure of DNA, while the sugar ribose is found in the structure of RNA.
DNA is the molecule that carries the cell's genetic information while RNA is the molecule involved in synthesis of protein using the coded information received from DNA.
Both DNA and RNA are termed as the genetic molecules of life.
Answer:
The correct answer is option D, that is, 27.
Explanation:
27 three-nucleotide codons would be possible when polynucleotide phosphorylase is supplemented to a solution of GTP, ATP, and UTP. As there are three nucleotides available, that is, guanine, adenine, and uracil and each codon comprise three nucleotides, thus, there would be a probability of (3)^3 codons, that is, 27.
"Viruses straddle the definition of life. They lie somewhere between supra molecular complexes and very simple biological entities. Viruses contain some of the structures and exhibit some of the activities that are common to organic life, but they are missing many of the others. In general, viruses are entirely composed of a single strand of genetic information encased within a protein capsule. Viruses lack most of the internal structure and machinery which characterize 'life', including the biosynthetic machinery that is necessary for reproduction. In order for a virus to replicate it must infect a suitable host cell".
From The Bacteriophage T4 Virus
<span>Ribosomes are the protein builders or the protein synthesizers of the cell. They are like construction guys who connect one amino acid at a time and build long chains. Ribosomes are special because they are found in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.</span>
Mitosis...the organelles double in numbers in this stage. how?
the cell is in resting phase, preforming cell functions then the DNA replicates.
and after that, thats when the organelles double to prepare for division. :)
