Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Backbone in a nucleic acids strand is made up of sugar molecules attached with phosphodiester bond.
This sugar-phosphate linkage helps in joining of nucleotides in a DNA sequence. Due to this backbone structural framework of nucleotides is formed. In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose.
Thus, we can conclude that the backbone in a nucleic acids strand is called sugar backbone.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
A proton has a charge of +1, while an electron has a charge of -1. This is why a neutral atom has the same number of protons as electrons.
Neutrons have no charge, hence their name neutron which is similar to neutral.
Answer:
The correct option is;
It is used during photosynthesis to capture sunlight
Explanation:
During photosynthesis, light energy from the Sun is converted and stored in sugars as chemical energy. The Sun light energy is used in the formation of complex sugars such as glucose from the combination of water from the ground and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere while oxygen is released as the byproduct. Organisms are then able to obtain energy from the glucose as well as carbon fiber
The chemical equation for the reaction is as follows;
6CO₂ + 12H₂O + light energy → C₂H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ + 6H₂O
Carbon, Water, GLucose, Oxygen, Water
dioxide
