2. A- Methionine
3. D- Translocation.
4. C- OH.
5. A - 5'
6. A - 3' carbon
7. A. adenine and guanine
Explanation:
1. A codon is a group of three nucleotide sequence that encodes or specifies an amino acid. This means that, during translation (second stage of gene expression), when a CODON is read, an amino acid is added to the growing peptide chain.
2. The codon that initiates the translation process is called a start codon. It has a sequence: AUG and it specifies Methionine amino acid. Hence, during translation where a tRNA binds to the mRNA codon to read it and add its corresponding amino acid, a tRNA with a complementary sequence of AUG (start codon) binds to it and carries Methionine amino acid.
3. Translocation is a process during translation whereby the mRNA-tRNA moeity moves forward in the ribosome to allow another codon to move into the vacant site for translation process to continue.
4. The sugar component of a nucelotide that makes up the nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) i.e. ribose or deoxyribose, contains an hydroxyll functional group (-OH).
5. A nucleotide consists of a pentose (five carbon) sugar, phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. The phosphate group (PO43-) is attached to the 5' carbon of the sugar molecule.
6. The free hydroxyll group (-OH) of the five carbon sugar molecule in DNA is attached to its 3' carbon.
7. Nitrogenous bases are the third component of a nucleotide, the other two being pentose sugar and phosphate group. The nitrogenous bases are four viz: Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine. These bases are classified into Purines and Pyrimidines based on the similarity in their structure. Adenine (A) and Guanine (G) are Purines because they possess have two carbon-nitrogen rings, as opposed to one possessed by Pyrimidines (Thymine and Cytosine).
Answer:
A potassium atom (atomic number 19) and a bromine atom (atomic number 35) can form a chemical bond through a transfer of one electron. The potassium ion that forms has 18 electrons. What best describes the bromide ion that forms? It is a negative ion that has one more valence electron than a neutral bromine atom.
Explanation:
1/4 mol = 0.25 mol
6 months = 0.5 year
rate = 0,25 mol / 0.5 year = 0.5 mol/year or approx 0.042 mol/month
Answer:
0.133 mol (corrected to 3 sig.fig)
Explanation:
Take the atomic mass of H=1.0, and O=16.0,
no. of moles = mass / molar mass
so no. of moles of H2O produced = 1.2 / (1.0x2+16.0)
= 0.0666666 mol
From the equation, the mole ratio of H2:H2O = 2:2 = 1:1,
meaning every 1 mole of H2 reacted gives out 1 mole of water.
So, the no, of moles of H2 required should equal to the no, of moles of H2O produced, which is also 0.0666666 moles.
mass = no. of moles x molar mass
hence,
mass of H2 required = 0.066666666 x (1.0x2)
= 0.133 mol (corrected to 3 sig.fig)
Answer: <span>A geometric isomer with two alkyl groups on the same side of the carbon-carbon double bond is called
<em>cis</em> Isomer.
Explanation: Geometric isomerism takes place about the double bond in alkenes when the alkyl groups are either situated at the same side (<em>
cis</em>) or are situated opposite (
<em>trans</em>) to each other.
Example: <em>
cis</em>
-2-Butene (highlighted red)
<em>
trans</em>
-2-Butene (highlighted blue)</span>
