How many base pairs per turn of the helix would most likely correspond to a positively supercoiled DNA molecule

Biology
1 answer:
Shalnov [3]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Five

Explanation:

A positively supercoiled DNA is a overwound DNA. It forms a twisted shaped of figure eight. The lobes of the figure will appear rotated in clockwise or anticlockwise direction with respect to each other. The base pair per turn for the helix in positively supercoiled DNA molecule is five. This conformation of DNA inhibits the replication and transcription processes due to overwound nature of DNA.

In an experiment, you create two groups of liposomes in a solution containing 0.1 M NaCl—one made from red blood cell membranes
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

As liposomes with red blood cell membranes burst more rapidly than those made from egg membranes, we consider these liposomes as more hypertonic respect to water, than those derived from frog egg cells.

Explanation:

Osmosis is a process where water can cross a semipermeable membrane in a gradient way.  Water tends to move from a high concentration of solvent to a low concentration.  Then, water goes in through the liposome to dilute its solute content, as it's not easy for molecules inside to go out of the usually impermeable membrane bilayers.

Which type of RNA functions as a carrier of the genetic code?
gayaneshka [121]

All forms of RNA are intermediate molecules that are fabricated within DNA to perform cellular functions.

mRNA - messenger RNA carries selected portions of DNA used to fabricate polypeptides used to fabricate amino acids for protein.

tRNA - transfer RNA is comprised of select genetic code and transfers amino acids to ribosomes for assembly

rRNA - ribosomal RNA is comprised of select genetic code and makes the ribosomes

RNA is highly mutatable, highly reactive, non-reproductive, and highly specialized metabolically, and consequently totally unsuitable for consideration of any pre-DNA senario being posited for the origin of life.
